Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
After those months I'm risking that this thread is abandonned, but there's a rather annoying bug in NoM
-in file utils/glowing_rune_terrains.cfg the rune terrain names are missing their .png extensions
that's a little annoying cause if i have the addon present, then every time i go into an mp game it floods out several lines about that invalid wml

The new version 1.0.0 is now available on both servers.
The changes visible to the players are:
All versions:
That would be a mistake: the last change worth mentioning, only visible on the 1.9 serie server, is a new era called Nightmares of Meloen(devel).
This era is designed to host some changes that could break the balance and thus are not done in the stable era.
The current changes in this devel era are:
My release process is rusty, so errors might have got in; do not to wait six months before reporting bugs.
The changes visible to the players are:
All versions:
- - art: new sprites from mysticX_th_unknown
- - HTP: add icons in menu and portrait in how-to-play dialogs
- - bug: fixes a bug that made uncursable a unit cleared from curse on leveling
- - l10n: updated translations
- - revealing unstable elemental variations is automatic at game startup
- - AI: the customized AI is automatically used when playing the era
- - AI: add a lua AI selectable at startup for AI sides

The current changes in this devel era are:
- - stats: raise minimum defense for cursed units to 20%

- - stats: reduce the fire power of Scornful Watcher's line to 10-3 (level 2) and 14-3 (level3)
- - stats: raise required XP to level for Spiteful Watcher to 90
- - specials: removal of the berserk special on the angry line; changes in XP

Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
I don't know if you've looked into the WML workshop recently but support has been added for custom status effects and there is a sticky post detailing how that is to be done. You might want to take a look at it for the 'cursed' special.
"There are two kinds of old men in the world. The kind who didn't go to war and who say that they should have lived fast died young and left a handsome corpse and the old men who did go to war and who say that there is no such thing as a handsome corpse."

Thanks for the tip. I got it implemented, but unfortunately it doesn't work well enough to be mentioned.

Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
This is a pretty fun faction to play, but a small little bug report (if this doesn't go here since I found the bug with the faction itself then my apologies)
(Wesnoth 1.9.9) It appears that whenever I jinx a vampire bat on a village it gains 15% defense instead of losing 15%. It's showing the 65% defense rating everywhere that I looked (I don't have much knowledge of the code involved so I didn't poke around there). I didn't see this effect outside of a bat in a village.
Also: is it possible for a future update to include a "default+khalifate+nightmares" era? I know I could probably make that fairly easy with some copy-pasting of text but it'd be nice for an option that's already there for when I'm having fun with my friends.

it is always nice to see positive comments on the faction!
I've released a revision 1.0.2 on the BFW 1.9.x server that fix the problem.

As a cookie, you will get some sprite upgrade from mystic_X_th_unknown and a new attack icon for the impact attack for Unhatched level-ups.
Just adding the Khalifate faction in the faction list is a no-go: we have worked hard to try to be balanced with default. We cannot jeopardize the work we have done just for the fun of playing Khalifate.keithicus wrote:Also: is it possible for a future update to include a "default+khalifate+nightmares" era? I know I could probably make that fairly easy with some copy-pasting of text but it'd be nice for an option that's already there for when I'm having fun with my friends.
Now, adding full support to Khalifate would be a nice project to bring this faction back to life.
I haven't paid a lot of attention to them recently and I can't say how Mightmares are faring against them.
If anyone has any evidence that Nightmares could be reasonably well balanced against them, I could have a shot at it.
PS: the new version is not available for BFW 1.8.x. I am not sure I will keep supporting 1.8 as I myself can't run it anymore.

Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
This might be a general lack of understanding in how to use mods, but I can't seem to select this faction after downloading the update. Success was reported, but no Nightmares of Meloen on the faction list, just the usual bunch.
This is with Wesnoth 1.9.11.
EDIT: Ah, I see I need to adjust the era.

Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
Hello, I am part of the French translation team, I want to finish the translation of your campaign. But there are two versions of the file.
- One of the gettext: 319 strings.
- One on the forum: 152 strings.
Is this normal?
Cordially.

Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
I think the new file updated is that one with 152 strings, where all the old manual about the game strategies was removed (sincerely it was too boring to translate it ) but I'm not sure. We hope FAAB will give us some explanations...
Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
Hi guys,
We have decided that the how-to-play ("old manual about the game strategies") was a long part to translate and that might deter some potential translator to help us with Nightmares of Meloen. So that all .po files attached on the forum have that part removed (and a new version is attached here under).
On the other hand, the wescamp/gettext routine is taking everything. I have to work out a way to teach wescamp/gettext to bypass that part too or to have NoM removed from it at once. It seems like this is connected to the translatable tag in .pbl file but I haven't had time to look further.
Of course, if you have done the translation for the how-to-play, we don't want to lose it. So that requires more time to check.
Best regards.

Hi.
I've just completed the Italian translation for this era, see the attachment. You can include it in the next version and remove the old one .

Nightmares of Meloen v 1.0.3
A new version 1.0.3 is now available on the BFW 1.10 add-on server.
It contains heavy work from Nothsa on unit description with no unit having incomplete description anymore. Yeah!
I have updated the script for how-to-play generation so that po files on forum and gettext should match by the time of the next gettext synchro.
In the meantime, if anyone can update the polish translation here-under that would be greatly appreciated!
A small fix on the terrain link ability of the Unstable elemental is released too with the Frozen form being now active on all snow aliases (snowy hills, snowy forest, ...).
Thanks for everyone's interest in Nightmares of Meloen's improvements.
[edit] New German translation is on the add-on server[/edit]

Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
In case someone is still maintaining this era...
Yesterday, I decided to translate this era to German. The only string missing is a part where I do not exactly know what it means (although I am not sure about all my translations).
PS: Also translated the background file.
PPS: Update to the translation.

Re: Nightmares of Meloen faction
It's good to see this era is still maintained!
Not long ago i asked some of the top ladder players to have a nom session with previous version. Although having no time to delve into details now, i'll come back later with some balance-related insightful textwall.
