Which sheet are you using?&nbsp; I'm guessing OGL.&nbsp; By default, it rolls 2 d20s so you can evaluate the action as normal (use the first one), advantaged (use the higher), or disadvantaged (use the lower) on the fly.&nbsp; You can change that in the gear tab.&nbsp; I believe you can also set the default on the Game Settings page where the Character Sheet is selected at the bottom. Here's the relevant wiki section:&nbsp;<a href="https://wiki.roll20.net/5th_Edition_OGL_by_Roll20#Rolling_for_Advantage_and_Disadvantage" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.roll20.net/5th_Edition_OGL_by_Roll20#Rolling_for_Advantage_and_Disadvantage</a>

Is it showing 2 dice rolled in chat, or are you referring to the 3d dice? If it's in chat, can you provide a screenshot?

If it's two 3d, d20's, I'm guessing(since I'm more familiar with the pf community sheet...) that it's rolling the attack and the crit confirm roll at the same time.&nbsp; You'll only see the crit confirm results in chat if your attack is a crit threat based on the crit range.&nbsp; All 3d dice used in a macro get rolled at the same time, so you'll see all rolls regardless. ;-(&nbsp; It's a roll template vs 3d dice issue.&nbsp;

(Similar to the advantage/disadvantage). The 3D dice roller displays all dice that the template instructs it to roll. The template simply decides what to display in chat based on roll results.&nbsp;

Nolan hinted in today's Community Corner twitch cast that they are aware of the communities desire to "sync" 3d dice and roll template's conditional helpers.&nbsp; Looks like it might be another "on our road map" features.&nbsp; ;-P&nbsp;

Yup! I really hope they get it synced tbh. Its the defining reason I don't use 3d dice.&nbsp;

I don't allow 3d dice in the games I GM because they don't cooperate with Powercards' 'hidden' rolls (only viewable by the GM when rolled by a player).&nbsp; I'd rather have the utility than the pretty :/
I actually discovered the problem. when I created the er..channel I forgot to change the drop downs to 3.5 pathfinder. after words I corrected it...the system however is still thinking its 5e with a pathfinder character sheet. Hence the system is confused. Ill have to remake all my work now :( at any rate is there a way to export all my monsters I created.?

The Dice Engine and 3D dice function independently of any rules system. The character sheets are simply a block of code that roll the dice for you.&nbsp;
right...but I had set it up without knowing it as 5e and its 2 d20 rolling system...but changed the sheet to pathfinder. so I got the sheets..but it is still rolling 2 dice...that's not how it works in 3.5.

The pathfinder sheet is supposed to roll 2 d20s as well. One for the attack, and one for the crit confirmation. I just doesn't display the crit confirmation roll in chat unless the first one reaches the threshhold for a crit. The 3d dice will display 2 dice rolls.&nbsp;
