Stat rollers and get them to work suck. have tried a few that were posted on the forum and just dont understand it at all. I always get loop detected message for Zmud and really I can think of something better I can be dong with my time then rolling for over and hour and a half for a character. Had a problem earlier with a character and blew up and deleted all my characters now wanted to try something new and nearly two hours in I still have not ht my desired roll. So I think I am going to be taking a break for awhile as getting annoyed trying to roll. Nothiing about these stupid rollers are as simple as they should be ha look at Filths, im not sure if i am supposed to copy paste all that one thing or whatever but every time loop detected crap grrrrrr. Anyway later.

EDIT: Hand rolling sucks, stat rollers so far that have seen suck.:madg: :madg:

I still hand roll. Cuz Im a boss! :0

[TheKid]

Hand rolling for 2 hours = a joke

Download RoAClient. Set the trigger to "[%1]", ignoring the "" marks.

$if (%1 < X){

roll}

The above is the reaction, with X being the max roll you are aiming for (edit: cut the spaces before and after the less-than sign, wasn't posting right without them).

Pattern: (%d)] Cmds

Value: %if(%1>25,%1,roll

Where 25 is the target which you can change manually. If you get 26 it will stop. Well it won't stop, but it will repeat 26 instead of roll. Then you have to disable your triggers and once your out of character creation you can enable them again.

I use zmud, and this is my roller. I have a class called "Roller" and a variable called @maxroll which I just set to one lower than I want. When roll exceeds maxroll, I shut off the roller, otherwise roll again.

Pattern: (%d)]

Commands: #IF (%1 > @maxroll) {#T- Roller} {roll}

Pattern: (%d)] Cmds

Value: %if(%1>25,%1,roll

You may need a tilde (~) before the square bracket depending on what your special characters are set up to do as it forces a match of the character, not what it's set up to do. To err on the side of caution, I use the tilde liberally. It doesn't hurt. Usually.

Also, Fox didn't close the parenthesis.

Using F0xx's simple yet effective trigger:

Pattern: (%d)~] Cmds

Value: %if(%1>25,%1,roll)

You can type this into your command bar (or copy/paste) and hit enter:

#TRIGGER {(%d)~] Cmds} {%if(%1>25,%1,roll)}

Like Beer said, to prevent you from needing to disable all your triggers, or this one manually, you can set it up to disable just the folder that the rolling trigger is in. You can re-enable it when you roll a new character. I use a second trigger, though.

#TRIGGER {(%d)~] Cmds} {%if(%1>25,disablerollingtrigger,roll)} {Rolling}

#TRIGGER {disablerollingtrigger} {#beep;#T- Rolling}

The beep should alert you to your target number being hit.

Use Gmud to roll (easiest client to set up a roller with).

Play on your regular client.

Problem solved.

Yeah, that seems much neater

Not my trigger though, someone gave it to me long long time ago. ZMUD was telling me there were mistakes in it, but I never bothered to change it because it worked and I was afraid I would break it

Back in the day when I was young and foolish, I didn't know sh!t about coding.

Nowadays I am still foolish and don't sh!t about coding

[Iyorvin]

Gmud! Haha.

Triggers:

[1]

[2]

[3]

[4]

etc. Haha. Back in the day I had to set up fifty of these badboys, much easier now

Enough said right here.... GMud is the Easiest to set up.

[shaggyboiler]

I use a very old client called Jaba Mud. I just setup triggers. To 'roll' till it sees a certian #. So if I want 25 I have it roll on everything till that # comes up.

Mudlet roller

Roller directions for mudlet

1. Create new trigger.

2. Change the first 'substring' field to 'perl regex'

3. Paste into field perl regex: "^\[(\d{2})] Cmds:" (everything in quotes)

4. Paste the following into the multi-line field below:

num = tonumber(matches[2])

if num < 24 then send("roll")

end

5. Change '24' to desired roll value

6. Remember to turn the trigger off when your roll is hit

/yawn

I hand roll and take anything close to a 22.

[Croyvern]

Its about investment for me.

If I have an Idea, I am sort of interested in, to investigate this or that, I use the stat roller.

If I have an Idea, I really want to follow through with, I hand roll it. Starting over if I do not get max stats within 100 rolls. I simply say, well I must have spelled the name wrong. Start over.

The most I ever started over was three times.

That's 300 hand rolls for max stats.

Instead of god knows how many thousand rolls to let the computer do it.

Maybe I am lucky.

Maybe I am insane.

Maybe I am patient.

Or, just maybe, there is some wisdom under what little gray hair has yet to fall out.

The world may never know.

And that's how many licks it takes to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop.
