Any one played d&d, or any other roleplay games for that matter, through tabletop simulator? Was it fun? Any suggestions?
Its fine but needlessly complicated. Just use Roll20

It makes playing certain simpler games far more enjoyable with internet friends, such as simple card games like Boss Monster. Anything with loads of tokens or complex rolling rules is very not to recommend.
Things that I've done that worked well: Boss Monster, card games like poker.
Things that worked decent: Eldritch Horror
Things that worked poorly: Shadowrun, Android: Netrunner, most other TCG/CCGs.
So long as everyone is familiar with the program and has a comp that can handle it.
Though like this guy said

Complexity and this program don't always work well together.
There's not enough minis for dnd in my opinion.
IMO Tabletop Sim isn't worth it for RPG's. Board games? Hell yes, but for an RPG I tend to stick to a text client with roll20 for maps if I really need them.

It's the best thing that ever happened to my group. It's more immersive than Roll20 and is waaay better at keeping people focused. The only downside is that you can't really have character sheets in Tabletop Simulator unless you use the tablets. I'd recommend keeping all the paperwork outside of it, like using mythweavers and/or google drive.

You can just add you own minis if you can model them and if you can't you can use the custom figurines instead. Just find a good picture and slap it onto the figurine and you're good to go.
