Discuter

Envoyer un message classique dans le chat est aisé : tapez simplement votre message dans la zone d'entrée de texte puis appuyez sur "Entrée". Sachez que chaque joueur assigné à un personnage (via l'onglet Journal) peut choisir, via un menu déroulant, de parlant en tant que joueur (leur pseudo) ou en tant que personnage. Ce menu déroulant se trouve juste en dessous de la zone d'entrée de texte du chat.

Si la case "Autoriser les avatars dans le chat" (Enable chat avatars) est cochée dans l'onglet "Mes préférences" (My Settings) dans la barre latérale, un aperçu miniature de leur avatar apparaîtra à gauche de leurs messages. L'icône changera selon que la personne parle en tant que joueur ou personnage.

Rolling

Rolling dice in Roll20 is easy. Just type the /roll command into the text chat box, followed by a formula. In most cases, the formula is the same as the one that's printed in your game's instructions. For example, you might know that to roll an attack roll you need to roll a "D20 plus your attack modifier". In Roll20, you would just type /roll d20+5. If you hit and you need to roll 3d6+2 damage, you would just type /roll 3d6+2. Finally, you can also string multiple rolls together. If you have an attack that does two types of damage, you might do /roll 2d6+5 + 1d8.

So, the overall format for a dice roll is /roll NdX+m where N is the number of dice to roll, X is the number of sides of the dice, and m is the (optional) modifier, which can also be negative.

After the roll is performed, you'll see the results of the roll in the text chat area. Notice that for each group of dice that were rolled, there will be a group of numbers in parentheses, representing the result of each individual dice that was rolled. You'll also see the total of all the dice values plus modifiers to the right of the equals sign.

Be sure to check out the Dice Reference if you need to use more advanced dice mechancics.

Note that you can also use Macros and Character Abilities in your rolls. Just press # and start typing to see a list of your macros, or % for a list of your Character's abilities.

Messages privés

Pour envoyer un message privé, tapez simplement /w et le nom de la personne (ou du personnage) à laquel vous souhaitez parler. Notez qu'un système d'auto-complétion des noms existe pour une utilisation plus rapide.

Pour envoyer un message privé directement au MJ, tapez /w gm. Vous pouvez également lancer des dés visibles uniquement par vous et le MJ avec /gmroll 1d20+5.

Actuellement, seuls les messages privés envoyés au MJ sont enregistrés dans les archives du chat et ne sont visibles que par le MJ.

Un joueur ou un GM peut s'envoyer lui-même un message privé en utilisant les commandes /w ou /w gm selon leur statut.

Chat Commands

Emotes

To emote, type /em and whatever action you want stated. Be advised that you will emote by whatever you are currently speaking as (player or charater). Emotes are formatted as center aligned, bold, italicized and set in an orange font and highlight.

Example: /em takes out one of his throwing daggers and brandishes it threateningly.

Bradley takes out one of his throwing daggers and brandishes it threateningly.

Out of Character

To state something while Out of Character (OOC) type /ooc or /o and whatever you wish to say out of character. OOC entries always appear as the player (e.g. "Riley D.") rather than the Character you have selected in the "Speaking As" drop-down (e.g. "Orrbain").

Example: /ooc I could really use another Red Bull right now.

Riley D.: I could really use another Red Bull right now.

Special Effects

To apply a special effect to the currently selected token, use /fx followed by the name of the effect you wish to use. Possible effects are:

• burn (alias: fire)
• explode
• dragonsbreath
• fireball

Example: /fx fireball

A fireball will appear over the selected token and explode.

Note: The special effects are intended as a Mentor subscription feature, and should only function if the campaign owner is a Mentor.

GM Exclusive Chat Commands

Descriptions

Adding text following the /desc command will not be designated to have been spoken by anyone. This is for the use of the GM to describe something in a scene. Descriptions are formatted as center aligned, bold, italicized and set in a black font and light grey highlight.

Example: /desc The old house begins to creak and moan...

The old house begins to creak and moan...

Speaking and Emoting as a Random NPC

A GM can speak or emote as an NPC that doesn't have a character entry made in the Journal tab. To speak as non-situated character, a GM should type the command /as, followed by a space, then the character name in quotation marks and then with what the GM wishes the character to say.

Example: /as "Sir Bearington" I'm going to eat you for breakfast.

Sir Bearington: I'm going to eat you for breakfast.

To emote, follow the same process as above but use the command /emas.

Example: /emas "Sir Bearington" charges at you!

Sir Bearington charges at you!

Doing math in the chat

Sometimes you want to do simple math in your chat. For example posting the damage done by a weapon and subtracting the modifier. To do so you can simply put it into double square-brackets like those "[[]]".

For example writing a macro for subtracting a miscellaneous number from your strength, while your strength is 5 would look like this:

/me is flexing her muscles which is very impressive since her strength is [[5-?{Modifier|0}]]

This will pop up a message where you put your modifier in which then will be subtracted from your base strength 5.

Archives du chat

La fenêtre de chat gardera un historique de toutes les entrées. Cet historique est persistant entre les sessions et reste disponible. Vous pouvez également accéder aux archives complètes en faisant défiler la fenêtre de chat vers le haut puis en cliquant sur Voir toutes les entrées du chat pour cette campagne (View all chat entries for this campaign), cela ouvrira l'historique complet du chat dans une nouvelle fenêtre.

Nettoyer la fenêtre de chat

Dans l'onglet "Mes préférences" (My Settings) se trouve un bouton appelé "Nettoyer la fenêtre de chat" (Clear current chat log). En le pressant, l'historique du chat sera vidé dans la fenêtre de chat. Cela n'affecte pas l'historique complet du chat auquel vous pouvez accéder dans la page des détails de la campagne ni la fenêtre de chat des autres joueurs. Si vous rechargez la page de votre navigateur, l'historique du chat sera de nouveau visible.

Clearing the Chat Archive

If the GM wishes to delete the entire Chat Archive and start fresh, they can do this by clicking the button in the Campaign Details page called "Clear Chat History". Note: This action will PERMANENTLY erase ALL of your chat from your campaign, so use this option with care.
