I need dice--not with the dice tool

[aolschlager]

Hi
I am trying to find interactive dice that will roll when you click on them instead of having the dice tool in its own window. I need one die to be specific.

:p

In the resources, I found some that roll by themselves..
Attached is individual ones on a page for you to see.
They are not the traditional look, but they roll...

You can download them from the Resource Pack here: http://www.prometheanplanet.com/us/server/show/ConResource.13242

Here's some plain colored ones I got somewhere....

Holli,

Those are great, and I have never seen them before! Do you remember where you found them?

~Ben

[srchlc]

I think someone posted them here in the forum. I am forever swiping things from flipcharts! ;)

When I click on that link it says the page no longer exists? ? ?

I love the flash dice and the cvc slot machine.[clap]

It is probably very simple, but I am having problems editing them. How to you change the words on the dice? I would also like to be able to change the letters on the CVC slot machine to pictures of coins.

Thank you for your patience.

[scaulfield]

I believe that those items are created in flash, so you would need to use flash to edit them.

[BenPosner]

Wait, you can edit that CVC slot machine? Anyone know how to do that, because I would love to make it a little different, just like bmiller?

You'd need flash, the original source code and a fair degree of programming skills if you were indeed to be able to edit the slot machine.:eek:

The coin idea has got me thinking though...

The editible dice are available in the forum already - the flipchart is also attached here. The best way of editing the inputs is to ensure notepad is your default text editor and then it can all be done from the flipchart.:)

[scaulfield]

Dan,

As always, awesome stuff. You are the man!

[BenPosner]

WOW DAN, WOW!

~Ben

PS: Any luck editing that CVC slot machine? If anyone can do it, I figured it would the GREAT Dan Bunker!

[Daniel Bunker]

Here's a simple slot machine idea using coin images.

I'm finding the flash placeholder setting quite slow when you have other things on the page - so the flipchart doen't use this setting - it uses the a flsh player window that can be maximised to full screen when you want to concentrate on the detail. It works OK if there's not much else on the page using Flash Placeholder, but I wanted to create a scence. Pg 3 has US coins from the library, whereas pg 1 & 2 are UK coins.

[BenPosner]

Dan,

This is phenomenal! Thanks for putting this up so quickly! I did not see the US coin page, but that might have just been me... I was playing with my kids, and they were all into the 'foreign' money, know what I mean?

Again, this is truly awesome!

~Ben

[Daniel Bunker]

I must have uploaded an earlier version in error - the swf file on page 3 of the attached uses US coins from the library.

[scaulfield]

The US Coins are on page 3!
Awesome stuff as always. Thanks Dan.

[bmiller12]

Thank you, thank you, thank you! {} It is so interactive. My class will love it.

This is all great information. I have many customers ask if they can edit the slot machine - thanks for the info!
