    I've watched four or five videos and yours is the first that has given me an actual grasp on building macros. Thank you!

    The up arrow after clicking on a character sheet is AMAZING tip, exactly what I needed.

    you could have posted the macros in the doobliedoo...instead of having people squint their eyes and go back and forth from your video to the game they've got set up. i'd forgo the entire video just to have simple access to your macros. maybe it's on your server somewhere i don't know but for someone coming from your youtube video it would have been very helpful.

    Hi guys, the commands that I take from the video (some words in spanish, change it)
    D100
    /w gm &{template:default} {{name=D100}}{{Resultado=[[1D100]]}}
    D20
    /w gm &{template:default} {{name=D20}}{{Resultado=[[1D20]]}}
    D???
    /w gm &{template:default} {{name=TiraGM}}{{Resultado=[[?{Cuantos dados}d?{Tipo de dado} + ?{Modificador|0}]]}}
    Whisper GM
    /w GM ?{Message?}
    Whisper Token
    /w @{selected|token_name} ?{Message?}
    And some +macros that I use:
    To paste a IMG in the chat
    [Image](?{URL}#.png)
    Potion of healing
    @{selected|wtype}&{template:atkdmg} {{damage=1}} {{dmg1flag=1}} ?{Healing Potion Variety?| Standard (2d4+2), {{rname=Standard Healing Potion
    (2d4+2)}} {{dmg1=[[2d4+2]]}} |Greater (4d4+4), {{rname=Greater Healing Potion
    (4d4+4)}} {{dmg1=[[4d4+4]]}} |Superior (8d4+8), {{rname=Superior Healing Potion
    (8d4+8)}} {{dmg1=[[8d4+8]]}} |Supreme (10d4+20),{{rname=Supreme Healing Potion
    (10d4+20)}} {{dmg1=[[10d4+20]]}} }
    Iniciative
    %{selected|initiative}
    :-) enjoy

    I like that you tell us in advance the macro functions before getting into the nuts and bolts of them. Great intro.
    having the macros made or discussed in here in the description would be a great addition to the video especially since the dice roller didnt work for me since it was hard to read.

    the "line" on the slash is simply called a "Vertical line" or if you run with the Linux crowd, it's referred to as "pipe"

    • @thepacketnarc7634

      It’s never known as “vertical line”, it’s always “pipe”.

    @20:45 - You could also say "{{name=D20 + ?{Modifier|0}}}" and then change the Result to be "{{Result = [[1d20 + ?{Modifier}]]}}" because Roll20 is smart enough to see that it's the same prompt so it'll reuse whatever input you used. Then, the "D20 + ???" becomes "D20 + "

    9:10 if you can't see, neither can we. A tip for recording tutorials with screen capture, lower your screen's resolution to 1280 x 720 max so that people using laptops (or even phones) can also have a chance to read.

    @Soulutions4You 4 года назад +1

    I have looked around but I can not find a simple list of Macro Operators and Elements. For Instance: Some of the macros start /r, others /w. That tells me there may be others. The use of & does what? What has to be incased with [, {, or (?. What I am looking for is a source to look at that lays this all out like a computer language with syntax, operators, and elements. Does anyone know where this treasure is buried and what I need to defeat to calm it?

  • @carolynhernandez5214

    Hi, I've followed your instructions to a T, but my "GM-Roller" macro does not function properly. It shows up how it should with the highlighted buttons, and when you click on them, it asks for data input (modifier or number of die), however nothing happens when i submit the input. The simple D20 button does not do anything either when I click on it. I tried deleting and re-typing the macro out several times and adjusting spacing but nothing will make it function. The original macros work perfectly when used on their own, just not within the GM-Roller macro. HELP!

    • @harbinger8208
      @harbinger8208 5 лет назад

      Same here, my guess is that the coding to show the results of the called macros is missing or changed since the video was made. IF you figure it out please post back. Thanks

  • @sandrock605

    To easily whisper a roll to the gm, you can also do /gmroll and then the roll.

    You can make a macro for token whisper @target. That way, you don't have to select the token first.

  • @chrisclarke73
    @chrisclarke73 6 лет назад +3

    Actually I have an issue. I followed the final macro you made and it works up to a point. It brings up my choices of dice macros I made (d4 d6 d8 etc). I choose the one I want. (All of my die macros are rolls with modifiers) so it asks how many and asks for modifier. But then it never shows a result.
    I don't understand why? It doesn't make sense. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

    • @GameMastersDungeon
      @GameMastersDungeon  6 лет назад

      Do you have the right number of brackets at the end of the macro? You need 2 regular and 2 curly brackets at the end or it will work up to like you said and then will just put the name of the roll in that purple bar but no results.

    • @ascendantmadness347
      @ascendantmadness347 6 лет назад +1

      I'm having a similar issue. The {template} output is fine and the button is usable, however; the nested macro goes through its paces of selection but does not output properly to the chat. The nested macro works fine on its own when clicked from the macro bar and outputs properly there. It even acts as if its working from the {template} until it's time to display an output.
      Could it be a html error from the nested macro? Maybe there needs to be some character replacement? Dunno, its just an idea about nested queries.

    • @marceloyrutsudominguito
      @marceloyrutsudominguito 4 года назад

      I had this same issue but a think i found a solution...
      you just have to put the code between the ! and the # symbols when calling a macro..
      it's somithing like:
      [D???](! #macroname)
      it worked for me, if you want to take a look on a roll20 forum topic where i found it, here is the link: app.roll20.net/forum/post/5899495/stupid-roll20-tricks-and-some-clever-ones/?pageforid=5927072#post-5927072

    Macros since no one else seems to have listed them.
    Basic D20:
    [[1d20]]
    or
    /roll 1d20
    Pretty D20:
    &{template:default} {{name=D20}}{{Results=[[1d20]]}}
    GM with d20 advantage and a + strength modifier
    (Keep High 1 dice, kl1 for disadvantage, d for Drop)
    /gmroll 2d20kh1+@{selected|strength_mod}
    /w gm [[2d20kh1+@{target|strength_mod}]]
    /w gm &{template:default} {{name=D20}}{{Results=[[2d20kh1+@{YourName|strength_mod}]]}}
    unfortunately I found no way to automatically get the current user's name and fill it in...
    D???:
    /w gm &{template:default} {{name=Dice Roller}} {{Results=[[?{How many}d?{Die type} + ?{Modifier|0}]]}}
    D??? with prompt for keep highest/keep lowest
    /w gm &{template:default} {{name=Dice Roller}} {{Results=[[?{How many}d?{Die type}?{extra} + ?{Modifier|0}]]}}
    GM Roller:
    /w gm &{template:default} {{name=Die Roller}} {{Die Types=[D???](!#D???) [D20](!#D10)}}
    I could not actually get this to work, it'd appear in the chat as intended and hovering showed the hand icon as if I should be able to click it, but it never actually ran the macro.
    see roll20.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360037773133-Dice-Reference for more stuff like exploding dice, rerolling
    Token Whisper
    /w @{selected|token_name} ?{Message}
    Party Whisper
    /w ?{Whisper|Brian|name2|name3|...} ?{What}
    notes:
    ?{Caption} - string prompt
    ?{Caption|InitialValue} - string prompt with starting value
    ?{Caption|list|of|options} - dropdown
    ?{Name of Query|Label 1, value1|Label 2, value2} - dropdown with differing shown name and value
    @name - targets Player
    @{selected|token_name} - targets selected token's linked character
    @{|} - targets selected token's linked character
    target can be "selected" token, "target" for picking in game, or a character's name.

    First, this is a great video, so thank you! I'm following along but when I create my own D6 roll - and this is a small thing - but I can't get the name centered like you have it. The name (D6) favors the left side and the result is more right. Not a big deal, but I like things centered. Any suggestions? Thank you again!

  • @vixevinweria8400
    @vixevinweria8400 6 лет назад +3

    Can someone tell me why my D20 macro isn't centering the name on the template. I can't find what I'm doing different.
    Also Thank you very much for this video it's exactly what I was looking for.

    For anyone coming to this late - the tool bar on the left, has a little d20 symbol. Click on that. You can then roll any of the basic D&D types of dice.
