When attacking (or defending) is the chance for a critical hit to happen calculated BEFORE or AFTER the chance to hit?

(if you're not sure, please don't answer. I'd honestly prefer the one who made the attacking formula to answer :P )
(if that's something not to be known by players , please confirm it's not to be known)
(if it's general knowledge, forgive my noobness...)

I just thought it could be calculated at the same time:
After all percentages (from battle stats, education , weapons, etc) are considered, there's a final die (e.g. a d20) where above a number it's a hit (e.g. 11/20 ) and above another (higher) number (e.g. 18/20) it's (also) a critical.

(please confirm if this is the case)

edit:
to answer bogie's question (" What was wrong with the answer you asked me for earlier??") in the post below.

Nothing was wrong with your answer and I already thanked you for it.
I do consider you a player with much (a lot) experience in the game. But still a player. I only wanted to check if it was indeed true and maybe learn from a mod or admin what the formula for attacking/defending is , or at least how it works exactly regarding critical hits. I did not assume that you knew the formula.
I'm sorry for annoying you by asking again in the forums.

so... You know how critical hits work because you have tested it yourself or can you point me to a guide (or developer's post) you've read that explains it?

What was wrong with the answer you asked me for earlier??


kamas: hey bogie! just a question about crits
kamas: i believe that crits were considered autohits (bypass dex) in the old atacking system. is that true? is it true now?
bogie: It wasn't even true then
kamas: hmm... ok. so that means that crit chance is calculated AFTER the chance to hit. right?
bogie: Yes


The truth of this hasn't changed in the time since you asked...
