Is there a way to make a gif play when you score a critical hit with a weapon attack?

I am specifically referring to the 5e sheet. As the question indicates, I was looking for a way to have a gif play upon scoring a critical hit (only). I already know how to add a gif to the "Description" box under an attack so it shows up every time you click on the weapon, that's not what I am talking about here. I only want the gif to show up in chat upon scoring a critical hit. Please note that I am not an experienced macro coder, so keep it simple.

Hi Shard,  Which "5e sheet"? There are over a dozen on Roll20, assuming you are referencing D&D 5e and not one of the other games with "5e" in the name.   If you don't know the name please supply a screenshot. 

Yes, the D&D 5e sheet

I would suggest starting with ScriptCards, which can watch the chat log and trigger sounds and effects. The specific ScriptCards thread is the place to start. <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/permalink/11175456/" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/permalink/11175456/</a>

Shard said: Yes, the D&amp;D 5e sheet I apologize for not being more clear. There are well over a dozen D&amp;D 5e character sheets on Roll20. Which one of those character sheets you are using makes a difference in how to answer your question. Please supply the name of the character sheet, if you don't know the name please supply a screenshot of the sheet for identification.&nbsp;

And also like I mentioned, I am not a coder and have no idea how to do any of that.

For future reference that is the D&amp;D 5e 2014 by Roll20 character sheet. The answer is yes, you can insert gifs into your attacks.&nbsp; But, if you want it to trigger off of a critical it is tricky. If you just wanted to stick a gif in your description that is easy, but making it only appear on a critical means only one field can be used.&nbsp; You can do the following: Edit the attack Put this into the critical section of the damage line:&nbsp; 1dX]][space](gif url)[[0 Where X is the damage dice and gif url is the url to your gif.&nbsp; Leave the 0 alone, you might not like it but it needs to stay there.&nbsp; Example: (note: I disabled the link below as for this purpose I just need it to be an example. Clicking on it won't go anywhere.) 1d8]][ ] (<a href="https://compote.slate.com/images/697b023b-64a5-49a0-8059-27b963453fb1.gif)[[0" rel="nofollow">https://compote.slate.com/images/697b023b-64a5-49a0-8059-27b963453fb1.gif)[[0</a> Note: crit range of 10 is just for testing purposes.&nbsp;

Thank you very much.
