Q: Looking for a few old maps (Map Request!!)

[Thinker]

I'm looking for some older maps...

(1)
I believe it was an Auction/Survival map (Not Auction X)
There was a AI Elf Shyde at the top that sent waves of units down to attack.
Users must travel up the narrow path and reach check-points along the way...
Goal was to kill the shyde first.

(2)
An arena type map
1 User controlled the center and could create spawn units...
The other 3 users started at the bottom and try to capture/kill User #1
The map itself was a maze of castle, with terrain in center.
I also believe there was upgrade capability by right-clicking your unit.

(3)
Five Worlds Survival and Seven Worlds Survival - Is it coming to 1.10.0 ?

Anyone know of these, if they are compatible with 1.10.0, or any plans to port these ?

[SlowThinker]

I think you can find all these addons here:
http://www.wesnoth.org/addons/1.6/

They are not ported to 1.10 unless they can be found here:
http://www.wesnoth.org/addons/1.9/

There is a tool called wmlint that converts addons automately:

This was called the Great Race and has not been seen for a long time, not even in 1.8, sadly.

Some kind of Colosseum thing, the heroes get points to upgrade themselves, and the dungeon master gets to recruit better monsters as turns go, right? I'm not sure what the title is but it was fun

Anyone know of these, if they are compatible with 1.10.0, or any plans to port these ?

Is this the one where they have teleport runes and you can teleport your armies to one of the different 'worlds', each with a different terrain theme ?

Hey you mean Gladiators (advanced).
Original by Gambit, mod by mabuse (advanced) - the 1.8 port was done by somebody else and had some (minor) bugs

you are right, this one should also be ported to 1.10. will do it asap.


edit: Hi TCO

[Thinker]

@ Slow ... Hey those links are great, ty
I actually edit my own Wesnoth code for Single P campaigns; haven't created any MP stuff mainly because I'm lazy heh, I'll look further into the python conversion.

@TheChosenOne
ty, I believe those are the correct names. Yes, 5 Worlds Survival was a great map; there's 1 upgrade spot in the middle where every1 starts... then you could teleport to the 4 worlds with different terrain in each. Great strategy game, even with the lesser-known bug Seven worlds survival was a good one if you could get that many people to join...

@Mabuse
Nice, I didn't know you modded that one... glad to know since you should deserve credit for that; the map was great!. Haven't seen Gambit around for a while either... but then again, I mostly just troll the forums until I have something to say ;P

Some add-ons contain code that wmllint cannot convert.

I use wmllint to convert old add-ons. wmllint finds and fixes many problems, and saves much time, but I must do what wmllint does not. I must change {VARIABLE_OP x format y} to {VARIABLE x y}. I must change 1.6-style message markup to Pango markup.

Some old add-ons might, without changes, work with 1.10. Some old add-ons might not work with 1.10, until you run wmllint. Some old add-ons might not work with 1.10, until you run wmllint and also make some other fixes.

:: UPDATE ::

OK, I didn't have any luck with the older maps... Great Race and Gladiators won't load at all... 5 Worlds Survival loaded with major issues. Instead of my faction, it gave me 1 spearman in each world and the teleport hexes didn't work.

My System is:

Win Vista
ver. 1.10.1
Fullscreen
Python 2.7

What I did...

\wmllint --dryrun
\wmllint
\wmllint --clean
\wmlscope --unresolved

With correct paths/names/etc...
The tools worked and I ended up with the log files I specified...
Here's what my run log looks like...

I guess I don't know what to do from here.... any ideas?

>> BUMP >>

anyone have any luck porting these yet?

[SlowThinker]

I can't help because I never used wmlint.
Maybe if nobody answers next week then you might post in the thread I linked above - those people might help in case they are subscribed to that thread.
