I was really impressed with Rumble's diceBox Drop-in. So much so, that I wanted to modify it so that it filled out a couple of features that I thought were missing. Sadly, I am not nearly as conversant in MTScript as Rumble is and had a hard time following the code from one step to another. Not to be dissuaded by such little things, I decided to move forward in my own way. The result is Diceframe. While not technically as sophisicated as Rumble's, I am quite proud of my brute force methodology.
Files:
Diceframe token: Rumble's Dice Table
Install:
1. Download and put the Diceframe_v11.rptok into a Library Folder. From there, drag it onto the map.
2. Download Rumble's dice table. Put it in a Library Folder. From the Tables window, Import the dice table.
3. Select the Diceframe token. Click on the diceFrame macro.
4. Once the dice frame pops up, position it to where you like. I place it high in the window, almost exactly center of the screen. I have a widescreen monitor so horizontal space is abundant.
If something does not work, please let me know and I will fix it. I hope that you may find a use for this.
Features:
- Individual die roll output.
- Shadowrun 4 style Glitches and Edge re-rolls. (I think WoD uses these too, just for d10 instead of d6.)
- Hide dice total output if you don't want it cluttering the chat.
- Some small help text. For the moment, it outputs to chat. I could not figure out why the dialog() command was not working. I will look more closely at that and see if I can figure out why.
