Forcing Results

[Arcanun]

Ok so, is there a way to force FG to roll a natural 20 on an attack skill check or something, as a GM, without showing in the text that its a manual roll?

When I use manual rolls as GM, it doesn't display that it was manual.

Try this - https://www.fantasygrounds.com/forum...Dice-(DM-only)
You will need to do some experimenting with a localhost connection to see what the various options look like for your players.

I think that is new for 3.3.6

This is built into the CoreRPG framework that most rulesets are built on.

1. Turn on Dice: Manual entry in Options
2. Make a roll.
3. A window pops up with a new manual roll entry describing the roll and providing four buttons.
4. Use the button that performs the roll the way you want.

The four buttons work as follows:
X = Cancel Roll
Die = Make roll normally using virtual dice
F = (GM only) Appear to make roll normally using virtual dice, but replace die result when reported to chat window (shows shadow dice on client)
Check = Specify die result manually, and report to chat window (without using virtual dice)

None of the options report manual from the GM side. There is no way to disable MANUAL tag on the player side.

That was very clarifying but one thing i couldnt get... is:


Is there a way to manual roll and mimic completely a nomal roll for the players? like the dice rolling in the chat box and displaying the result i choose and the chat entry the same?


Edit1: Also, after i enable manual entry will the "manual dice entry" box pops for players too?

[Zacchaeus]

No to both question.

From Moon's post:

Gm's dice always show up as shadow dice on the clients.

It only appears as a shadow dice if you play on the tower if i recall... if you use on the chat, it displays the normal dice

I suggest that you connect to your own table as a player and try it. Whereupon you will see that the GM's dice *always* show as shadow dice for the players.
