SmallRoller has been updated. Version 1.1 adds the ability to display a probability graph for the dice settings you choose. I have also made available an image file which will run on multiple platforms (including Macs and Linux), though it requires you have VisualWorks from Cincom installed first. Feel free to leave comments or bug reports.

The next improvements I plan to add, as time allows, will be the ability to calculate “open” die rolls and other non-standard dice combinations. Eventually I’d like to allow probability calculations for multiple game system and user-defined dice types. DicePro does a good job of handling almost every imaginable dice type, but does not calculate probabilities.
