Way to spawn a complete set of dominoes?
I would like to play some traditional domino games from my childhood online with friends on tabletop simulator, but in order to do that, I would need to be able to have the complete set of 1:12 dominoes. I would use custom models on the Steam workshop, but at this time it's impossible to put custom objects into your hand, which is vital to playing most of the games involving dominoes.
As far as I've seen through google searching, there is no way to do this. In my mind, domino games are one of the classics like chess and card games, and so the fact that tabletop sim apparently has no support for them is heartbreaking.
Does anyone know a way to get a complete set of dominoes without any sort of coding knowledge?

maybe you could use cards instead

How, exactly? The game I want to play requires you to lay lots of dominoes closely together (like so http://www.tedmontgomery.com/chknfoot/chickenfootgame.jpg ) so I think it's impractical, and maybe even impossible, to use cards. Besides, why should I be using digital substitutes for something you can do easily in the real world? I thought the point of tabletop sim was to be realistic

You cards would be exactly the same size as the domino's but without the depth so I can't see an issue with placing them if thats the big concern.

But if your not keen on Cards why not just use a hidden zone to hold your Domino's ? Whilst holding them in a hand is nice Its not necessary, your issue is other players seeing what your holding isn't it ?

You can just save the default set to your chest.

If you're trying to recreate a specific design.. You could also just recreate the 2d images and import them as custom tiles and select their thickness.

Use hidden zones as suggested.

Am I missing something? There is a Dominoes game mode in the Classic section in Games. You can put the standard dominoes in your hand.
Yeah. . . The Domino's in the game are 1:6 Dominoe's. not 1:12 dominoe's

You only get 1:6, not 1:12, if even that.

Ah, sorry. I didn't understand because the number of pips has nothing to do with ratios.

You could use custom models with a hidden zone or use the card method. There's currently no way to put custom models in your hand. You should post suggestions on the berserkgames website[www.berserk-games.com].
