Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
Just got Wesnoth 1.14 and discovered this campaign, that I'd never seen before. It is astonishingly well made indeed! Excellent job!
Is there any walkthrough or anything like that available anywhere? I've not been able to find one.

Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
Hello pinnerup and thank you for your comment
At the moment there is no walkthrough available yet. The campaign is still under developement (together with ForestDragon we are working on implementing a special gameplay mode allowing players to unlock an alternative "hidden" story layer). Once it is ready and bugs are fixed the campaign will become stable. Then I'll prepare a topic in the walkthroughs section on the forums
Anyway I have prepared a youtube video with me playing the first 2 scenarios. If you want to show BfW and TLU to new players, feel free to share it

Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
If I may venture a comment: The graphics are generally awesome, but sometimes they are so fancy that they're hard to comprehend. In the scenario "Siege of Mag Magar" it's very hard to tell from the graphics which squares are unwalkable and which not – and of course this is very important for strategy when positioning your units. This goes particularly for the golden debris to the top right of the starting pad and the darker patch of debris just to the right of the starting pad.
I find myself setting labels on the map to denote impassable and unwalkable fields to better plan my moves.

Looking at the minimap helps a lot with seeing what is unwalkable.
Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
Might I suggest using the new (1.14) "Cutscene" and "Cutscene_Minimal" themes for your cutscenes? They hide the sidebar, top bar, map borders, and the gray off-map background.
Creator of Shadows of Deception (for 1.12) and co-creator of the Era of Chaos (for 1.12/1.13).

Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
That's a pretty interesting idea. I didn't even know of the existence of such themes. I'll definitely try them out!
Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
Once again, this is an amazing campaign and true art. I love it. Unfortunately I'm stuck in "Transition" as the cut scene breaks the game. I so far deactivated all unit animations I could find, but it did not change a thing. I also had the same problems I mentioned in the versions before. During animations of (mostly Rashi) the transparent part of graphics are not transparent and show a rectangle in different colors (black, grey etc.). I've also played the version in german, which is broken.

Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
Hello Heindal and thank you for the bug report.
The animation in the Transition scenario is quite demanding in terms of system memory. I thought disabling all animations fixed this, but it looks the problem is still there. I am going to redesign this animation a bit to fix all potential issues. The fix should be available in the next version of the campaign.

I have never encountered such an issue. May I know the basic specifics of your machine?
Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
Hi inferno8,
well I've seen these rectangles a lot on three computers so far, in different wesnoth and add-on versions. So it's hard to tell whats going wrong.
All of them have nvidia graphic cards and windows (XP, 7, 8.1, 10). I think the last time you gave me an advice which worked somehow .
Maybe I will find this advice and share it.
An easy fix for the Transition problem would be to make a scenario before Transition, where you ask the player if he wants to see the animation or not. If he chooses "yes" he will start Transition, if not he will start the scenario after Transition. Well it's a workaround, but that could do the trick.
Kind regards
Heindal
Edit: just checked my pms and forum posts. I've found an old version reply in 2.0, but it seems impossible to find the older posts by searching .

Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
To Lands Unknown 3.0.1 is now available!
The major feature of this release is the option to skip animated cutscenes entirely or to play them in a "safe mode" preventing the game from crashing. Heindal's previous post gave me an inspiration to make this. Thank you!
Also, the new version utilizes a new special theme designed for cutscenes. This theme temporarily disables UI allowing players to focus on animated clips without being distracted by panels and minimaps. I'd like to thank Vultraz for suggesting it.
The full changelog is here:

Re: To Lands Unknown 3.0 for 1.14
It is still far from being the final version As I said earlier there is 3.1 under development. It will add a very interesting and unique feature. It should be ready within a month and a half, so stay tuned!

what it meant was the final 3.0 version (the earlier ones were betas of the 3.0 version, of sorts)
