There have been requests made for this one, but no brave coder has taken up the call.

There is a dice hack available for 3.5 but it is far too limited. I, along with some other people, were hoping for a dice hack that could roll up to (perhaps beyond) a 20-sided die.

For example:

[DICE]2d20[/DICE] ------> Two 20-sided dice (e.g. first die = 16; second die = 12)

[DICE]4d6[/DICE] -------> Four 6-sided dice (e.g., first die = 2; second die = 1; third die = 6; fourth die = 4)

This would be an excellent tool for games and for contests (random drawings, etc.)

If conditions need to be made, I'm willing to hear them out (PM me). Come on, let's get this thing going --- there's a demand for it.

Here's the dice code portion of the functions_bbcodeparse file that was originally in my Vbulletin 3.0.3, now no longer working for 3.5.4. Someone should be able to convert this into 3.5.4 format

	// [DICE]
	$bbcodes['custom']['find']['[dice]'] = '#\[dice\](<br>|<br />|\r\n|\n|\r)??(.*)(<br>|<br />|\r\n|\n|\r)??\[/dice\]#esiU';
	$bbcodes['custom']['replace']['[dice]'] = "handle_bbcode_dice('\\2')";
	$bbcodes['custom']['recurse']['dice'][0] = array('handler' => 'handle_bbcode_dice');

// fastjack
function handle_bbcode_dice($msg){
global $_SERVER;
