Downloading Add-Ons quickly

Post by CATscratchFECES »

Is there a quicker way than to download the add-ons? It looks like there's over a hundred of them and its a time consuming task downloading each and every one.....

You can use campaigns_client.py under utils/ to download a bunch of add-ons. For example: "./campaigns_client.py --download=.* -c ~/wesnoth/add-ons/1.2/ -p 1.2.x" would download all add-ons from the 1.2 add-ons server. See "./campaigns_client.py --help" for a short explanation of all the options.

Locked, since this thread is nearly a decade old. Also because I don't think the 1.3 add-on server exists anymore.
