Try looking at this.

Hmm.

There must be something wrong either with the export or with the Dice.zip file.
Maybe the file "Dice_District_BuildIn.prp" is missing in the ZIP?
It "installed" correctly, but when I link into it, this is what I see:
Dice
Dice

and it does not change when I walk around.

3ds-max generated ages sometimes don't have the BuiltIn file. This is no problem as long as they don't have an SDL either.
I prefer e-mails to "diafero arcor de" (after adding the at and the dot) over PMs.

all it has so far is the files in the dat folder. Is everyone getting the green screen?

Okay, then this should not be a problem.
To verify, I did the whole process again (downloading, unpacking, copying to the dat folder).
Another strange effect: As soon as I startup URU, the file called "Dice_District_mainroom.prp" gets deleted! (Not the BuiltIn, but the mainroom.)
I do not even have to link to Dice, just start URU. Any ideas why/how this could happen, or other users having similar effects?

Sequence prefix is 2012 btw. (PlasmaShop gave this information). Possibly a conflict?

It works fine for me. The dice work well too. Nice first age!

It would be nice to hear some sounds. Maybe you could also have a book there with rules for some dice games.

@tachzusamm: This sounds like you have an age installed that has the same sequence prefix as the dice age.
