Looking for JS Libraries to Create a 3D Dice Roller

Asked By DiceWizz123 On

I'm trying to add a dice roller feature on my webpage, but I'm looking for something more dynamic than just a button that shows a random result. I want to simulate the rolling of 3D dice. Does anyone know of any libraries that can help with this? I'm familiar with Three.js and considering using it for animation, but I'm unsure how to either extract the result from a physics-based roll or how to simulate a roll to display a desired result. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Have you heard of dice.js? It combines Three.js with Cannon.js for real 3D physics roll simulations. It can really make the dice roll in a realistic manner, and the outcome is the actual side that lands facing up, not just a random number. It's pretty cool if you want a more authentic feel! Also, you might want to check out Rapier.js as a modern physics alternative.

I looked up dice.js but couldn't find much. Could you share the link for it?

You can definitely use Three.js to animate a dice roll! One approach is to use a random number generator for the outcome and swap the textures of the dice during or just before the roll to make the result appear seamless. If you're looking for a physics-based simulation, Rapier.js might work too, though remember that sometimes it’s easier to fake the effect than to create a real simulation.
