The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

thank you, I have looked over those files, I think I'm going with a bit different direction, though this has certainly given me inspiration. At least in title anyway... in fact tis is very much opposite what I was thinking in terms of plot... hmm, I think I can do something with this though. At leas...

^^ um I searched all over and found nothing on it other than it was abandoned, I waited a bit, really, can I have this campaign, and is there any source material to work with, or am I starting from scratch ? I am going to check back, but if it goes another day or two, Im going to make a thread and g...

yeah, Im using a copy of a working file, but there seems to be some issue with newline/linefeed from linux to windows... for the life of me, that should work. What is wrong, how do I fix it ? I know in a few places it matters alot, but where is it important, and where is it ignored ? I s there a way...

ok, Im beating my head against a wall here... I had been using code from the examples page.. the templates.. I ended up using a copy of a file that was working, but I am still generating errors left and right... what am I doing wrong here ? I'm looking at the examples, and at other peoples code, min...

well double posting doesn't seem to be so much of an issue here on these forums, so I had a brief bit of news. I have been playtesting the maps and era/faction a bit, Poison is way too powerful in such tight quarters, and with such small teams. I'm taking out the assassin, and the Troll, regeneratio...

well, maybe for the flagships, but for the ones you hire its 40% again you attack me personally, instead of evaluating the balance of the map. You know it by heart, naturally you will do fine, I intend to make it playable for the rest of us. I can admit, that I may not have the most experience, and ...

ok, 10 minutes ago, turn 35, 1000gold in ships lost in less than 4 turns to 3 MoW, they are overpowered. if it isn't fun, it fails. You may be good at this map, you know everything about it, but if people who have played it 5 or 6 times, and I've played it more than that, are losing ships left and r...

hi, what was this "3 tasks of an Undead Man" ? this sounds just like the kind of thing I'd be into. It is abandoned right ? So I can develop it ? Seems even the original creator is not wanting to continue it, nor anyone else. Is there any content to it at all, or would I be starting comple...

I can appreciate that you find a Survival mode to be odd, but opinions vary, and I like exploring a lot. There is a lot to this map, more than can really be seen in a standard game. I just want to set it up, so people can get the most out of it. As for the Man-o-War, they are way overpowered. Even n...

I think this has to be one of the best Mods for wesnoth, and if you don't mind, Im going to Mod it. I love this Map/Scenario, but I really wish you could play it as a "Survival" type map, where all players can be on the same team, currently if this is done, the game endsw after player 1 ma...

Im glad I found this, I was just about to ask if I could replace the day night cycle with a weather cycle, to represent longer battle. Many battle were fought over the course of weeks if not months. I would love a simple weather system that could replace the day night cycle, or even seasons, if play...

ok, sorry for taking so long to reply here. Shadow_Master gave me a huge help on IRC a few days ago. I did get my Faction/Era working ! I'm going to try to get some better map configs now, that help normalize things. Thankl you guys for the help and suggestions, found out about the NewLine/Linefeed ...

sorry for the lack of clarity Dave, I certainly understand your reasons for choosing C++, I would choose the tools I was familiar with myself.. :) The internal over external comment I made was about WML and Lua, or any other language for that matter. Please let me reiterate, I'm not questioning that...

the second one, why c++ over java for the core engine

this was part of the why not lua thread, but got split out.. the thread title is a bit misleading...

I was just interested in why you started with an internal language than a public one, performance control, etc

yeah, Ive been hearing that they are weighted to only certain factions, other than shape, I would want them to be as neutral as possible, I played around withe WML, found several errors, learned alot, like curly braces mean insert the text of the file at that point, wasn't very clear on that.. but a...
