Create 3D Dice

Dice allows you to import custom textures and settings for use on a 3D Dice.

Using the in-app Designer

The in-app dice designer allows you to easily create a die. This feature is currently in development and will be added to the app soon.

Create the Die Manually (Advanced)

Creating a 3D die is easy, all you need to do is provide images for each side of the dice. For a 6-sided die, these images should be .png files and be in the root of the dice folder. They should be named 'Top.png', 'Front.png', 'Right.png', 'Left.png', 'Back.png' and 'Bottom.png'. To configure the name and description of the Dice, create a file in the same directory called 'Dice.config', open it in a text editor such as notepad and set the first line to the name of your die and the second line to the description, which you can include the creator in if you want. You can always right click or tap and hold on a die in the app and select the export option to export the die which you can use as a template.
