The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Hello !

My story on why I'm getting back to wesnoth after more than 10 years begins with a snarky remark from my best friend.
“ Why are you trying to use photoshop on windows when you could use an open source equivalent on linux ?  ”
“  I don't know , I replied. Why are you play a proprietary...

Once there was a small village called Raplice. It was an ordinary village, full of ordinary people with ordinary lives. But when Voadar's life suddenly turned upside down, the young drake was forced to explore the community, unearth its hairy secrets, and rally the citizens to set things right....

Hey guys, there is less than 200 units till 5000 units in WOTG. Im not sure will I have enough sprites of units to reach 5k so this is why is this topic. Pls post here sprites/images of units that you have on your computer. I checked already whole art workshop topics.

Doofus has been working on some beautiful new ships, fully-animated and with gorgeous float/stand animations.

Our existing core ships are more-or-less fake units, not really designed to be used outside of cutscenes. I'd like these new ships to be actual units - this is a public place to discuss...

Big thanks to skeptical_troll and Samonella (who made several of these) for helping...

Whilst I must commend the artists on their work on the olden ones, I must say—I am not a fan of how bulky they've made some of them (the zorked up thugs being example of this) and to be frank, I much, MUCH prefer the previous ones.

So I ask to anyone this: Do any of y'all got any folders that are...

Finally after 8 months I'm releasing 1.0 of my single player campaign titled The Library of Kratemaqht . It is an ancient story from the old continent, and is something of a prequel to Rise of Wesnoth. It comes from a time when dragons could still be found from time to time on the frontiers of...

Dear fellow Wesnothians,

Thank you for all the effort put into developing and maintaining this game, for free. It is truly wonderful and one of the best games I've played.

Hey all, I'm new to WML and have been studying the basics to create a simple modification add-on.

Before I get to the meat of the add-on, though, I'd like to setup a proper debugging workflow that would allow me to develop faster, more easily and more correctly.

To that point, I've been looking...
