New to using macros and I need help... D&D 3.5

I am trying to make a macro for a Skeleton weilding a shortsword that also detects when its also crit. Any advice would help Edit: it's hard for me to explain in writing, i have dysgraphia.

What are you looking to accomplish with "detects when it's also a crit"? A simple roll [[1d20+?{Modifiers}]] would highlight green on a natural 20 and red on a natural 1. If you need a different range, you can define the success and fail ranges with the cs and cf modifiers to the roll. Example: for success above 19 and fail below 2 you'd write [[1d20cs>19cf<2+?{Modifiers}]]

When you say "detects when it's also a crit", can you explain a bit more about what you're after?  If I remember correctly, 3.5 used a roll of natural 20 as the critical threat and then a second roll that was a critical confirmation if it would hit the target.  Is that the system you're using?

At the bottom of the Character Sheet there is a Roll Templates Expand Arrow. If you click it you'll get a lot of prebuilt template type attacks.  If you want, post details here and I can help you amend them since I am really familiar with those Templates.
