We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay . While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list.
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize other’s...
You’ve come here either after reading our latest news post or because you saw this thread crop up in the forum index under the Developers’ Discussions section, which is now open for a limited time to posts from regular users.
So, you probably want to help develop Wesnoth but don’t know where to...
I am trying to mod wesnoths code to make it more fit to host a RPG (DnD like) game. I am struggling with summoning units outside of castles. Can someone help me find the code and how to implement such changes? Thank you in advance.
The question has come up a few times whether it is possible to have an external mechanism (such as a machine learning framework) interact with Wesnoth without having to change the C++ code. In other words, is it possible to receive the game state from Wesnoth and pass a move back to it, which is...
I discovered with great pleasure the new possibility of introducing user choices (so-called options ) directly in _main, for global campaign choices. However, I have 2 issues with the way it is done now:
First, we are imposed a title and a text, which are:
* title: Configure options
*...
This is not a feature request, rather curiosity. Why was it chosen to have vertical lines?, while obviously (see below) horizontal ones seem more intuitive. What were the reasons? A long time ago, I coded a game with hex geometry (although with square tiles for simplicity, see below illustration)....
Is there documentation on what the deprecation messages mean? I'm getting messages like
But if I look at the wiki, it still mentions helper.child_range, says nothing about wml.child_range. Helper is deprecated, but will be supported indefinitely? Or is it deprecated for now, but might come back...
Hello, on my system, there are 3 such dirs (in parens: path by me):
The one we can find from main menu via the {i} icon (/usr/share/games/wesnoth/1.14).
One together with UMC game data (/home/me/.config/wesnoth-1.14/data/wesnoth-1.14.5)
Finally one at the top of my home/...
I occasionnally have errors failed to load scenario which I am totally unable to debug (including right now ), even when resting my mind instead of ( stupidly ) insisting. Then, usually (albeit not in the present case--yet), the error just disappears and I can go on working. I ended up...
I was very pleased to discover the new tag. However, there still remain obscure notations about image variants or modifs. Mainly, I guess, we commonly need to indicate a color or a gender. Exemple I would like to be able to code:
Note that this simplifies the C++ side of the affair, since...
I know this is asked a lot, and not ready for it, but just wanted to know if there is a way to try it, mainly to play with friends.
Probably is not possible using official server, but would like to know if could be possible to host my own server, with matches configured with longtime turns, for...
I'm posting this here for folks who might be interested in attempting to set up wesnothd (on linux) with forum_user_handler without having to install PHPBB.
When building the project, it looks like you might need to use scons with forum_user_handler=true
Greetings everyone! (My first post in the official forum. :D)
In the good ol' days - when trolls were green, and Konrad were a cute child book character instead of a badass crusader - the game had some huge, unbalanced, but also somehow interesting maps.
Today I'm in a nostalgic mood so I'm decide...
Heya, I'm interested if anyone ever tried to clone the map-rendering logic of BfW and make it standalone , or, more widely accessible.
That probably sounds ridiculous; why take the mapeditor out of the game only create another mapeditor then?
Well, there is this really decent, generic,...
If I start about the terminal (behind with the reason to experience more about the missing of overlay) is coming the message:
libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile
Know anyone what this means?
A deeper view into the images, with file *, in core/images/terrain drives to the usage about...
He there,
since my work on a new add-on - I would faster check it out
and found the solution to start with,
wesnoth -d -c ./The_20th
-d for debug
-c for the following campaign
but it is coming in an other way - because truetype fonts are missing,
'bit curious how long all the programming took, without the campaigns work. 'guess would be allright too.
I was looking for web programming information, with JavaScript (and Java) and I was thinking if it really makes sense to use those web programming languages, since those are interpreted and...
Since I had found the tool imgcheck, I work with this
possible because the done renaming of the tool in imgcheck.py
Now I can let take that the input-folder with the images for the sequence
with:
python imgcheck.py ./thesubfolder/* > the colorsequence.txt
I became for my drawings inside the folder...
Myself and a few other people are working on voice acting another two campaigns (DiD and AOI). We really think having campaigns with voice acting adds a lot to the campaign and we hope to do even more campaigns soon.
However, currently in order to voice act a campaign the campaign has to be...
To clarify, I’m not a beginner developer, but I’m new to Wesnoth. Some friends and I just came back to Wesnoth after a decade, and we noticed the AI made for a very poor teammate. Since I’ve gotten my BS in Computer Science recently I thought it’d be a fun project to mess around with making my own...
I am designing a map in the map editor . When starting the scenario, an error appears Unknown tile in map Wwg^BaB\ . If I replace the sandstone bridge with either Bp (plank) or Bh (hanging), the map is accepted and all runs finely.
I am creating a tool, that can read addon folder, and return information on where certain defined WML patterns exist. My first use case is finding events without id.
I use wesnoth -p and wmlparser3.py.
Idea for this is from
Nothing works correctly yet, but it has already been...
Hi, in 2014 I was accepted in the development team of Battle for Wesnoth but unfortunately, I couldn’t do a lot of work for the project because of a contract. Now I have time to allocate to work on this project and I was wondering if there are tasks/features that must be done concerning the tools....
Now let me start by saying I have read Dave's post and understand his decision to include high variance. Apparently the topic gets brought up so often they banned it from the ideas forum(also understandable; after it's brought up the first time, they're really just begging other people to do the...
I'm sorry to come here for my own problem not regarding Wesnoth in any way but I'm currently fighting with SDL2 transparency processing and I've read some quite old posts here talking about this problem when you migrated from 1.2 to 2.0.
It's also why I'm coming here. I cannot find answer...
I don't know if this is the proper forum to discuss this, but lately, after noticing all the great advancements in the field of machine learning, especially deep learning, I was wondering whether anyone has thought about the 'Writing a Wesnoth AI is hard' statement in a different light....
