Dice Graphics

Post by dugcarr1 »

This is a meta thread for dice graphics. A basic summation is below.

-Add dice graphics to see rolls
-Remove event dice graphics, or make them optional
-Create fuzzy dice graphics (made the To-Do list!)
-Allow for creation of personal dice skins (and show them to opponent when rolling?)
-agentcom doesn't want Bunnies to be rolled, but about 80 other users do :)

Feel free to scroll through at your leisure. There is not enough justification in my mind to index each of these individually, when I would rather the community come up with one set-in-stone idea over the matter. -JK

hey duggy....maybe try changing the resolution size (right wording??) in the control panel / display area of your computer...

OR, ideally, get a huge flatscreen monitor.......

I use option #1

1. Get the greasemonkey script that automatically scrolls down to the map.

2. Hit F11 to fully maximize your browser. (F11 reverses it)

Are you using small or large maps? If you are using large, change to small.

who would want graphics that'll only slow the game down, when the numbers are already shown?

I'm sorry, I can't think straight when you're posting around me....

If it would slow down the site, no.

can you please expand on this Lack...

do you mean, we are going to see the defending dice with the 2 6's rolling around on them, or have you found a better way to get the info for the attacking dice / defending dice from 2 different sources?

ARE THE DICE GOING TO BE FIXED?

I dislike those new dice pics

Post by ZawBanjito »

I feel they're a little too big. On most maps I used to get away with not scrolling down after every roll but the extra block of pictures has ended that. Now I appear to be scrolling down after every roll... little bit frustrating. Maybe make them a tad smaller? In fact, if I could I wouldn't have them at all. In truth I don't like 'em at all, but I know some people requested them... Any chance of an option to get rid of them?

Also, could you add back in the line that says, "so and so loses..."? I used to follow the rolls by focusing on that line, rather than the count on the board. Not having it is making my eyes fling all over the place.

Seconded.
Taking an enemy on the battlefield is like a hawk taking a bird. Though it enters into the midst of a thousand of them, it pays no attention to any bird other than the one it has first marked.

I dislike the dice images too. I need scroll to see them, since I use 800 x 600 resolution.
