Re: Sceptre of Life, version 0.11.3

Playing the 4th scenario, "Alone Time" on easy, it's a bit too easy, and some of the dialog doesn't make sense. I started out with 690 gold,so I'd beaten the saurians and gotten most of my troops up to the river by the time the orcs got there. At this point green has been more or less mar...

Re: Sceptre of Life, version 0.11.3

Okay, the next bugfix release is out. In it I fixed scenario 2's lighting issue (they now turn on and off properly), and I finally put something on the isle that makes finding the ice bridge worthwhile. Props to anyone who can actually get the isle to work; it's functionality is a little obscure. I ...

Okay, so it's more of a technical requirement than a design choice. gotcha.

Re: changing ellipses in 1.5

Out of curiosity, why are [object] tags now the preferred way of permanently modifying units? They seem rather clunky compared to the comparatively more elegant (IMO) solution of store/modify/unstore.

Re: Sceptre of Life, version 0.11.2

Sorry, I took so long to respond :( It's cool; I know what it's like to be busy in RL. Yeah, I noticed that there was no technical(!) tomato surprise, and I knew what you had been trying to do when I noticed the jumping of the clock. Trouble is, that it feels like one anyway. ... It feels a bit wie...

I enjoy that you only think that you've found a bug given that the game crashes ;-)

I'll make it a point to fix this for the next bugfix release, thanks.

Re: Sceptre of Life, version 0.11.2

Hey, sorry, I haven't forgotten about you :-). Believe it or not, I can't seem to find my way onto a windows computer to test. My mother's computer uses 98 still, and my brother's being a loser and not letting me install wesnoth (even if temporarily) so I can test/debug. I think the main issue with ...

Re: Sceptre of Life, version 0.11.2

Yeah, "jury-rigged" is a good term for it. When I first created the scenario (back in 1.4 days), I was told that 1.5/1.6 would have the capability to change the time of day via WML, but the last time I checked the wiki, it is still a static feature. Now there's a (possibly good) chance tha...

Re: Connecting to 1.4 server

heh! leave it to Turuk to come up with a sensible solution. Thanks, --OSJ Edit: Heh. So, the campaign I was looking for is Delfador's Memoirs. I just found a post about its going mainline, so now I know why it wasn't on the 1.6 Add-on server, (or the 1.4, for that matter).I guess I'll just have to w...

Resolved: Connecting to 1.4 server

Hey, I wanted to grab a campaign off of the 1.4 server, without going through the hassle of reinstalling the outdated version. I remember reading somewhere that you can connect to the server of an old version in-game; I just can't remember how, or what port to use. Thanks for any help with this, --OSJ

best choice of profile images

Hey, I'm updating my campaign's profile images from the good 'ole 1.4 days, and I have a question about good form. In the long run, if I have a transparent image in the normal profiles folder (e.g. portraits/humans/peasant.png), and a comparable transparent image in the transparent folder (e.g. port...

Resolved: missing campaign image

A friend of mine who tested my campaign (Sceptre of Life) on his Mac told me that SoL's campaign image won't show up. It works fine on my linux box, and I haven't received any complaints from windows users. Has anyone run into this sort of thing before? Below is the content of my _main.cfg file: ##|...

I'm presently running Kubuntu Linux, so tomorrow when my brother wakes up, I'll see if he'll let me install wesnoth 1.6 onto his (windows XP SP3) laptop to test. Thanks for the error report, ...
