Now get some dice code

[Racer Xonclar]

I don't know of any way to do that, honestly.

www.dice2d.com/dice-roller.html
This site works great, but the only way to bring it into a PHPBB board would be through some applet you would have to add to the site, kinda like those shoutout boxes, but that's way beyond my knowledge

[Racer Xonclar]

Okay...I'm actually working on a dice roller for these boards. Digging around, I found some code that might do it but it's not working atm. So if you see something pop up or the boards magically turn inside out....you know it's me

[Racer Xonclar]

Okay...apparently the code lies and it /can't/ be posted "anywhere". Had to be in the footer along with the spoiler code *rolls eyes*

Anyway, I'll keep this one here for now until I find something I like better. It's...different than what I expected. You'll see a lovely dice looking button whenever you go to post (beside the spoiler button). Hitting it will ask you how many dice with how many sides.

2 d20s
[dice=20][dice=20]

4 d6s
[dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6]

2 d100s
[dice=100][dice=100]

Doing it /in/ the post isn't exactly what I expected, but...better than nothing. To see the result of the roll, just preview the post before posting it. It somehow keeps the same number regardless of how many times you preview.

If you're lazy and don't want to fool with the button, the PHP code for the dice is "[dice=6 ]" (without the space obviously) where the number is the number of sides. Two dice, just put the code in twice.[rand=57633067155256872767378841526806488212484424002479027140084654093]

Nice!

Can you post the actual code?

I might be able to at it to the FO board.

I had to put it in the global footer to get it to work here, not sure how it'd work on a more normal PHP board (e.g. non-proboards).

The 3rd and 4th lines let you do basic appearance changes

[Racer Xonclar]

.dicebg {background-color: 800020 ;border:solid 2px #66001A;}
.dicefont {background-color: 800020 ;color: FCC200; font-weight:bold;}

I changed the appearance settings to this in an attempt to make the dice look a bit more like a real set of dice...specifically the Chessex Vortex burgundy with gold set
