Hey! I just ran my first session with FG2 and, while it went really well, there was one thing bothering me. Whenever the players made rolls for combat, they showed-up fine. But when I as DM made combat rolls for the enemies, none of the players could see either the results or the roll itself.

I know this is probably a simple question, but how do I get those rolls to show for everyone?

With some rulesets you can toggle this in the preferences I think. I normally use Rolemaster which does not have that setting so all rolls by the DM are hidden. If I click the roll in my chat screen and drag it another part of the chat screen it reposts the roll total and everyone can see it.

What ruleset are you using?

D&D 3.5E. I checked the preferences and the option was there, thanks!

If there is no option in the preferences, /die reveal often works.

As MurghBpurn mentions, "/die reveal" (to hide use "/die hide") will work with the RMC ruleset to make the GM rolls (with modifier data) visible to the players.
