2024-11-12 | it's meew | en | It wont even open now - only ever worked every once in a while and would disconnect often | |
2024-09-13 | Brandon Gabbard | en | This plugin is garbage, doesn't want to open despite being granted permissions. Why does everyone have to contact support to make this work? I've made the dice work with FoundryVTT but I'm also an IT Engineer and would not recommend this product for people who do not have a firm understanding of IP networking. These dice could have been so awesome but they fall short in so many ways. Still good for Backgammon and the other games in the iOS/Android app. | |
2024-04-10 | Ryan Leihsing | en | i can't select all the dice some dice selections don't let me click them at all so no 4-8 for some reason | |
2024-03-03 | Michael Teske | en | Faces don't match on roll. Got it connected to Roll 20, and more often then not the rolled face will be wrong, roll a 3? get a 19. Roll an 8, get a 20. It does show numbers on the Roll 20 chat, but if the face is wrong, what's the point? | |
2024-02-13 | Michael Murphy | en | I bought these specifically to use with Roll20 and the extensions seems broken, I can't get the pop up open to connect. Shame, such a great idea. Should really not advertise that they work with specific VTT's if they aren't going to support them. | |
2022-08-04 | Amit Katz | en | So glad the extension was updated! If earlier it was pretty cool and innovative, but not that convenient to set up and manage, now it is truly great! I hope it will be even better integrated in the future. I love seeing those two dice roll and give me my modified outcome straight into the group's chat. | |
2023-12-31 | K B | en | works great (i use roll20) need to pair it initially with a chord plugged directly into my pc but once its paired u can use it wirelessly. you just have to select what dice it is in roll20 itself. i just wish it had a tad more battery! | |
2023-12-28 | Chase Nash | en | I would love to be able to use this product more regularly in my games, but it is a pain to get it to connect to my VTT which happens to be Roll20 and I can't get it to connect without using my phone first. AND then it only stays connected for like a minute and then is trying to reconnect, and again I need use the app on my phone to get this reconnect. I'm not sure why some products have no issues with this connection and other have a ton of issues based off comments/reviews. If this connection error is due to the product or the web extension was fixed I would have no issues changing my review to a 5 star as the product, I believe, otherwise is a great product. | |
2023-12-27 | Rhawk | en | great idea bad programing I can't select d4, d6, or d8 dice so my options are 10 and up and I definitely need to be able to select those. please fix I'd love to use this extension. | |
2023-12-04 | Orion Zanzibar | en | Three stars because of how bad the Chrome extension is set up. In Roll20, for example, after installing extension, you then have to enable the dice by reopening the extension from the Chrome bar while in the campaign. The small extension subwindow that is in the campaign does absolutely nothing to tell you this. I figured this out by checking the extension and double checking that this is how it worked via the GoDice YT page. If they could rework this to be more intuitive for the user by having the popup able to pair the dice or at least add a blurb to the pop up window in the VTT telling you to go pair the dice via the extension, that would be great. |
