The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

If you want to try compiling it, it's not for the faint of heart, but there are instructions here: https://wiki.wesnoth.org/CompilingWesnoth Basically you can start from the part which says " Linux Tips to Easily Gather Dependencies " and try running the commands to install compilation de...

If you really want version 1.12, I would probably recommend compiling it from source instead, and then running it directly from the compilation directory. That way you won't have to install any unsupported packages on your system. That's what I was afraid, I'm not that familiar with MX or Linux, an...

MX package manager has only 1.14.5 version.

Migrated recently from Ubuntu to MX Linux 19, in Ubuntu I could install Wesnoth 1.12.6 unfortunately in MX there's only 1.14.5, MX 19 is based on Debian 10.1 and from Debian site , it lists a bunch of dependent packages, when using Ubuntu, I don't recall that I had to install all of those packages, ...

Thanks to all of you for so many useful information, learned so much just in the last few days. Now I need to digest them one by one and start playing.

Great, thanks so much for your tips and suggestions, it's much appreciated.

Thanks so much for you tips, I'll do as suggested, start with mainline then after completed several, then I'll do the addons. One last question, I couldn't find the Roar of the Woses, but there's one called Story of the Wose, could be this one or it hasn't been ported to 1.14? Thanks again for your ...

Do not forget about user-made campaigns from Add-ons section. Much of content there is better than mainline one. In my opinion. Thanks so much for this tip, didn't even know they exists. I just did a quick search, it seems the post for best campaigns are old (2012), do you mind to share with me 1) ...

otzenpunk, thanks for your prompt reply, I'll follow as suggested, and thanks for the tips too.

I've played this game few years ago, decided to give it another try. I remembered when I played the 1st time, I followed the sequence from this page https://wiki.wesnoth.org/Mainline_Campaigns , which started with Heir to the Throne, but on the Getting Started page ( https://wiki.wesnoth.org/Getting...

I currently have Windows 10 - it seems to still run old versions of the game:

That's an interesting idea, is there any advantage in using old version beside being able to load old replays? I'm just starting, so I can use either.

Thanks to all of you for the feedback, I'll await for the stable version of 13, in the mean time I'll just run it maximized as suggested by Zap-Zarap.

Sí, todavía esta funcionando. Lo mínimo que puedo hacer por tí, es mandarte unas capturas de pantalla algún dia. Si estas viviendo en el Norte de la Península, existe una posibilidád muy pequeña, de que pasaré por tu región el año que viene. Entonces te lo llevaría. Yes, it is still working. The le...

I'm not sure if this is a feature or it's my setting, everytime I start Wesnoth, it starts a little bit below my screen, and I have to drag it to the right position, it doesn't "remember" the last location, do I have to change some settings or I have to file a bug/feature report. I'm using...

Somewhere in the deepest and darkest and spiderwebbiest part of my attic, i conserve an ancient Linux Laptop with Battle For Wesnoth 0.9.0 installed on it. If you like, i can send it to your house. ;) The old graphics are real fun to see. It doesn't have "Isar's Cross" Map yet, but it has...
