This module adds an overlay animation when a critical hit or natural 1 fumble is made. It brings a JRPG aesthetic to your table. Compatible with D&D 5e and Pathfinder 2e game systems.

Elemental themes are automatically applied based on the damage type. Animations trigger for everyone at the table simultaneously. Quotes and sounds are customizable via actor flags.

You can also make it so that it always appears for you or everyone whenever you attack.

In 1.0.12, this can occur for finishers as well.

Finishers demonstration.

• Dice So Nice! Integration: Automatically detects if Dice So Nice! 3D dice are active. When enabled, critical animations are deferred until the 3D dice finish rolling and settle on the screen.
• Screen Shake & Zoom: Shakes and zooms the game canvas locally to heighten the impact of critical rolls. This is configured as a client-side setting (enabled by default) and can be toggled off for accessibility or health preferences.
• Debug Mode: A togglable client-side configuration setting that outputs trace logs to the browser console to help debug system hooks or modules.

Actor Customization

This replaces the "CRITICAL HIT" or "FUMBLE" text with your custom line. You can provide a single string, a delimiter string, or an array of strings. If multiple quotes are provided, one will be chosen at random for each animation.

const actor = canvas.tokens.controlled[0]?.actor || game.user.character;

// Single quote
await actor.setFlag('yugen-criticals', 'crit-quote', "Pick a god and pray!");

// Multiple quotes (Array)
await actor.setFlag('yugen-criticals', 'crit-quote', [
  "Pick a god and pray!",
  "My sword hand hungers!",
  "This ends now!"
]);

// Multiple quotes (| Delimiter)
await actor.setFlag('yugen-criticals', 'fumble-quote', "I miscalculated... | Not like this... | How could I fail?");

Supports single files, delimited strings, or arrays for random playback.

const actor = canvas.tokens.controlled[0]?.actor || game.user.character;

// Multiple sounds (Array or Delimited)
await actor.setFlag('yugen-criticals', 'crit-sound', "sounds/crit1.ogg|sounds/crit2.ogg");
await actor.setFlag('yugen-criticals', 'fumble-sound', ["sounds/fail1.ogg", "sounds/fail2.ogg"]);

const actor = canvas.tokens.controlled[0]?.actor || game.user.character;
await actor.unsetFlag('yugen-criticals', 'crit-quote');
await actor.unsetFlag('yugen-criticals', 'fumble-quote');
await actor.unsetFlag('yugen-criticals', 'crit-sound');
await actor.unsetFlag('yugen-criticals', 'fumble-sound');

The module automatically creates a script macro named yugen-criticals config in the world's macro collection upon initialization.

• Purpose: Allows players and GMs to quickly open the configuration screen for their currently selected token or assigned character.
• Access: GMs can drag this macro to their hotbar, and set its permission to "Observer" to allow players to drag it to their own hotbars for easy quote and sound customization.
