Eugee's Dice Towers

Description
As my 3D modeling skills are improving, I decided to make a dice tower for use at my table. This turned into two dice towers over the past week, with and without trays, and in fantasy or scifi textures (six total). All of them have pre-adjusted physics (0.1 friction, 0.9 bounce) so they work just fine even with default dice that have standard physics; you won't need to adjust your dice!

The deluxe towers (with gold d20 emblem) use an "acceleration chute" to spit the dice out pretty rapidly, tumbling the whole way. The version with a tray is my favorite tower--the one without is nice but the dice can really get away from the tower! I've dropped the max number of dice you can pick up repeatedly into the deluxe tower and it just gobbles them up and asks for more.

The towers without the emblem are for traditionalists that feel you need a tiered chute; the dice drop down a third of the tower before dropping into a semi-circle chute and popping out the bottom. When dropping large handfuls of dice the top hopper occasionally has a pair of dice get wedged, and the dice don't come out of the bottom as fast, but you have the tiered inside, which is important to some purists.

There's also two towers at the bottom of the table with see-through sides, so you can see the dice action when deciding which you prefer (I like the d20 ones). They aren't good for table use though, as the transparent PNG texture is very large.

I dropped the dice in the screenshot into each tower, to give an idea of how far the dice traveled upon exiting.

Enjoy!

UPDATE: The plastic weird looking one in the center is the "minimalist" dice tower. The dice will stay on it, trust me. :)

If you guys are having trouble with dice on the Graceful or Simple towers, make sure you LOCK the object in the right click menu. The physics go wonky if it's not locked down.

TO ADD NON-DESTRUCTIVELY: - this is a basic TTS feature; well documented ;)

1.) Make sure you're SUBSCRIBED to this asset in Steam; the green + button above ^^^
2.) Click on the GAMES tab at the top of the screen in Tabletop Simulator
3.) Under WORKSHOP, hover over this asset on the vertical ellipsis (3 dots) for OPTIONS
4.) Select ADDITIVE LOAD to bring the asset into your already loaded Table.

Apologies to OP if this is necro.

Thanks for these!
tips for use:
scale your dice or the tower for smooth rolling
lock the towers to avoid spillage.

I used the dice inside your mod, not ohter dice, and here's what happened:
- the dice gets stuck in the vacuum on the tower;
- the dice rolls but at the first "curve" it flies away;
- the dice gets stuck inside.

@flazzy What isn't working? If your dice are too big increase the size of the tower (or reduce the size of your dice.

Doesn't work at all.
