Re: Windows 95 - Kernel32 Issue? (1.10.1)

Replacing the DLLs used by the system in system32 is a bad idea. The kernel32.dll is among the knownDLLs, which are loaded from system32, even if a kernel32.dll is present in the start directory of the program. This can be switched off (at least on win2k), visit http://oldcigaret.info/win2k/phpBB3/i...

Pseudo-Realtime strategy

Don't tell me what I want ;-) Let me explain my design. I didn't want to go into it because it would just show that I'm another lazy [censored] who is not willing to code what he has in mind, but I'll try to be exact in my description to make up for it. The design is inspired by ufo-enemy unknown/xc...

Re: Wesnothian Real Time Stratigy

Realtime or Pseudo-Realtime would definitely be an improvement for those maps where there are 6 players, all with just a hero.

Re: Sort-of bug report - inadvertent offensive content

It isn't a technical question, it is a question of being manageable.

One would have to maintain a huge list of words which are considered offensive by someone, it would never be complete, and surely someone would appear who would find the very existence of such a list to be inappropriate.

Re: Great Legend Era Campaigns

On the second scenario of "rise of genesis" when played in 1.9.13, there is a message:
"invalid WML: [set_variable] [switch] [clear_variable] not supported at scenario toplevel"
Not sure yet whether it affects gameplay.

Re: Beta 1.9.10 Install extension in userdata problem

The issue seems to be gone in 1.9.13
I was able to load two addon-campaigns, one with a dependency, just fine.

Re: To Lands Unknown v1.5.5; v1.4.5

No, it is related to loading something from the data dir.
It only affects TLU, not other campaigns, so I think it might be some command that is used to load Era of magic.

Re: To Lands Unknown v1.5.5; v1.4.5

I have a problem with the "To lands unknown" campaign, and I'm crossposting it here, because I can't tell whether it is an issue with the campaign or the era of magic. There are two issues: Loading something fails if there is a non 7-bit ascii character in the file system path to the wesno...

Re: Beta 1.9.10 Install extension in userdata problem

I downloaded the swamplings campaign and it works just fine. A wild guess: Maybe the problem is in some code in the "To lands unknown" campaign that tries to load era of magic? I now changed the data dir to one without an Umlaut, it seems the addon gets loaded now, now I get a different er...

Re: Beta 1.9.10 Install extension in userdata problem

Well, I didn't, but now I did and the error message persists, and in the error message the path to the addon is truncated at the Umlaut(a non 127-bit ascii character).

Beta 1.9.10 Install extension in userdata problem

I have 1.9.10 and downloaded the extension(campaign) "To Lands unknown". Starting it fails, and after the failure it doesn't appear anymore in the installed campaigns list. The issue seems to be that wesnoth is configured to store addons in user data, which on my german windows 2000 system...

How about asking someone else for their updater?

How about asking someone else for their updater, for example Planeshift? Their source code is GNU GPL, and maybe their updater too. Their updater checks all files using a checksum versus a release. That can be a bit slow, but it also can save a lot of bandwidth. It requires a server though, but who ...
