Honestly this program is a life saver, I'm god awful at modeling and even simply adding font to dice is like brain surgery to me. Second you either have a patreon or "pay what you want" I'm there.
Is there a feature to copy an imported image from one dice face to another. For example lets say I like using a Logo on D20' 20 and D6; 6, If I import the image to the D20's 20 can I copy it to the D6's 6
Any plans to add more alternative dice? I love using alternative dice for specific tasks like potion looking ones for Health Potions.
No such feature now, you'd have to import the image again. I want to add a similar feature, but it isn't there yet.
I have more dice shapes planned, yeah, but very little time for development. I hate to say this, but for fancy potion-shaped dice you'd probably be better off finding some STLs or building them from scratch in Blender. I might add such die shape in the future, but this app won't be able to compete with an actual 3d-modelling software when it comes to complex, custom geometries.
I made a video tutorial on generating bumper files for the generated STLs using DiceMaker. I then combine both the Bumper-STL with the Dice-STL in the slicer and print them together to get to the same result.
You only need to generate the bumpers once. I have printed only one set of dice yet, but I can save the scene in Lychee (I guess in chitubox it might be the same) and then replace all dice objects with new version, now touching the bumbers and only needing to re-support all islands caused by the digits/ logos on the dice replacing the original. The workflow is - once implemented - very easy.

Hey! I'm glad it's helpful :)

this is an absolutely spectacular tool! any plans to implement bumpers?
Hey, thanks! :D
Do you mean bumpers like these? LINK - I do, but further down the road, no ETA yet.
yes exactly! thats so exciting! this tool is so excellent. thank you for your work

You can find the video here:
This is a great video, and actually, this is almost exactly how i make my bumpers already! glad to see ive been doing it just about correct!
Hey, great video! I'm sure it wil help some people.
I'm working on adding an option to generate bumpers right in the app, I'm hoping to have an update within a week or so.
