I tried starting this campaign and immediately encountered the missing images mentioned earlier.

my terminal output:

It's a unix issue, its picky about caps. Changing the folder name from "Elves" to "elves" fixes it. Probably the same with the above terrain issue. Whoops take that back the watchtower looks like it's in the wrong place :hmm:

@Bumbadabum
could you try modifying the terrain.cfg? I think it should work if you replace

Code: Select all

symbol_image=../terrain/watchtower-elven.png
by

Code: Select all

symbol_image=watchtower-elven.png
it should work.

EDIT: sorry for double posting

If the file is located in images/terrain/watchtower-elven.png, that should work. I can't really test it right now, will confirm ASAP.

Version 0.1.0 is out!

Post by Paulomat4 »

It has been some time since the last update. I've been working on scenario 8 for quite some time, but always doing other things along the way. I didn't wanted to release an update before I didn't finished S8 therefore the long waiting time. Scenario 8 finishes chapter 1 and it will take quite some time before I release the next version, but i will of course release bug fixes. The unitmarkers have become as separate add-on (called "unitmarker modification"). I strongly suggest downloading it ;)
As always, please report every bug you can find, and if you have any suggestions for balancing or similar, please comment. :)
The changelog is quite long this time.

Version 0.1.0

Code: Select all

-finished chapter 1 (added scenario 8)
-new sprites for the corrupted woses
-dying dialogue for silam added
-adjusted the [endlevel] tag of scenario 6
-removed the underscore from the name
-moved the unitmarker to a different add-on, which now affects all campaigns
-changed the boss icon of Oenoch to be only a midboss
-adaptations to the dialogue parts in scenario 4 and 5 to fit with scenario 10
-improvements to Fiannons and Limwen's portrait
-corrected the journey of scenario 7 which looked bad
-small dialogue changes
-fixed the micro ai for M'brin, who didn't move, if other units were at the target location
-modified Alasar to distenguish him more from other units, made him need more experience also
-gave the player the ownership of all the villages north of the river, and the one next to the bridge in scenario 2
-gave the enemy more income in scenario 2 to counterbalance
-fixed the (now for version 1.11.7) unneeded micro ai configurations
Merry Christmas everybody!

To all players out there: I'm currently trying to balance chapter one. I'm especially interested about the turn limit in scenario 1. how long did it took you to complete that scenario? Do you think there is too little time? feedback would be greatly appreciated

-support for the [feedback] tag added onwards from 1.11.8
-updated description
additionally an article has been published on the Guide to UMC Content

Posting here, just to let you know, that this is not abandoned. I made a pause, but now I'm back on it. Sadly no new scenarios but a few improvements. Also the add-on is now available on the 1.12 server which will hopefully get me some more feedback, once we get a new stable version. (Btw, does anybody know when this will be?) Support for 1.11 add-on server is now dropped which means, that if you want to play the newest version of this campaign, then you should upgrade to at least 1.11.10.

Version 1.1.2.1

Code: Select all

-New add-on icon for the server
-altered description
-altered filenames to fit 1.12 add-on server
-uploaded to 1.12

Next version 0.1.2.2 is out.
Still no new scenarios, but I made a recent play through, and fixed the issues I found. I've also began balancing more, so the first scenarios should be more than doable on easy now. I had no big problems on normal. (but I also know all the tricks and strategies) I hope it is still a bit of a challenge at least on normal. Hard should still be hard.

Version 1.1.2.1

Code: Select all

-small dialogue changes in scenario 1,3,4
-added more 10 more turns on each difficulty to scenario 1
-Alasar now always advances to an elvish hero, because it fits his character more
-added a sound to Naia appearence in scenario 2
-added an event to scenario 1 related to the tunnel, which might trigger the trolls appearance in advance, if the player is too good.
-less and weaker enemies when Lirak walks away in scenario 2
-corrected wrongly displayed message in scenario 3
-scenario 8 Is now part of chapter 2 "Darkness and Despair" (chapters are arranged similar to LoW)

Hi,

I just started the campaign, but got stuck in the "Valley of Death" scenario. If I move Fiannon to the signpost the scenario doesn't end, but only the following error message apears:

Code: Select all

Invalid WML found: [then] not supported
There is another point in this scenario. What does the bonus goal "defeat all enemies" mean? Is there a limited amount of enemy waves you have to kill or do you have kill all enemies on the map once? I played for about 40 turns, but the waves didn't stop. Then I killed all enemies on the map, but I didn't get any messages that I made it and afterwards the enmies appeared as usual.

I'm playing thew latest The Rising on BoW 1.11.12 and Debian Linux.

hey, thanks for reporting.
On which version of wesnoth are you playing? I just played through on 1.11.12 and had no problems. I suppose you're playing on 1.11.12+dev. If so, then this is likely related to this. http://forums.wesnoth.org/viewtopic.php ... 4&start=15
Elvish hunter removed support for

Code: Select all

[then]
tags not long ago, but apparently he re-added the support. I guess you just have a version installed which does not support that.

In the valley of death, enemy waves are appearing until turn 32. After this you only have to clear out all enemies and click end turn.
