When I add my campaign to .../data/campaigns/(My_Campaign)

[colin345]

And when I try to open Wesnoth i get this:

Spoiler:

But, it works fine if I remove it. If I try to move it to userdata, and change the coding, it doesn't find it at all. The Weird thing is, I didn't even edit those files.
I'm using Windows XP if that matters.

Any help is appreciated.

There is indeed something wrong with that error message. Could you attach your campaign so we can reproduce the bug?

From _main.cfg:

Code: Select all

#ifdef CAMPAIGN_THE_NECROMANCER's_CAVERN
{@data/campains/The_Necromancer's_Cavern/scenarios
#endif

The include should be {@data/campaigns/The_Necromancer's_Cavern/scenarios} in 1.6 and {~data/add-ons/The_Necromancer's_Cavern/scenarios} in 1.7/1.8.

However, you should stay as far away from quotes in filenames as possible, they're even worse than spaces in filenames.


This was just a cursory examination, I'll take a look at the faulty error later.

I actually have made this campaign work on BfW 1.7/1.8 since colin345 posted the code on WML Workshop Forum here by using "A Simple Campaign" here: http://wiki.wesnoth.org/BuildingCampaignsTutorial
I was waiting for his answer regarding to my question that is for BfW 1.6 or 1.7/1.8.

colin345, so please let me know if you need help.

------------------
EDIT: Making the thing faster, I post your main file. This is for BfW 1.7/1.8.
I did not touch your campaign icon and image, so you had better change them to something else.
The game is generally playable even missing an id in the [campaign] tag, so I did not add it. (you can add it later)

On the first scenario, you have three missing closing tags, and need "team_name=something" in the side tags (1 and 2) to play the game.

I'm using 1.6.5, should I be using the other one? And I fixed most (If not all) the mistakes that made in the .cfg and scenario.

I also changed the apostrophes in the titles, but I didn't upload that because it would have minimal impact correct?

Also, is the id neccessary? Because the guide said it wasn't (though I guess I should add it in anyway).

Thanks for all the help. Too bad I can't get 1.7/8 till tomorrow at the earliest.

While I managed to produce quite a number of different issues with the campaign, I couldn't reproduce the error in completely unrelated files.
