The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Hi everyone! It's been 7 years since I last wrote here. :shock:

Many things have changed in my life; most importantly, now I have 2 daughters. The older one is three years old, and she is quite talented at drawing. Not just my parental bias; a child psychologist confirmed that she draws at a level...

Have you ever felt that mainline's Eastern Invasion was... lackluster? So do I, but the campaign premise has so much promise that I couldn't bear to see it go to waste.

So, I've worked on-and-off for the past year to build an extensive rewrite of Eastern Invasion, which I'm proud to present here...

So I ransacked some of the excellent artwork from Spacenoth and put together a space scenario.

Players must travel the galaxy, colonise planets, build a fleet and capture the enemy's homeworlds. It's kind of a cross between A New Land and High Seas, and partly inspired by Masters of Orion. When...

Could there be a situation where a skilled player wants to reduce his or her unit's hitpoints to encourage AI-controlled enemies to move towards it and/or attack it?

Legends about a mysterious warlock who created a powerful artifact roam the lands. An artifact powerful enough to break the frontier between the world of the living and the dead. Many treasure hunters, adventurers, paladins, knights or even foul sorcerers tried to get their hand on this artifact,...

It's been a while but it's finally here - the first, version of Beyond Southern Hells era. Availible for both 1.8.5 and 1.9.4..though may not work as well at 1.8 in case I miss fixing some coding differences.

Far south beyond the wesnothian gaze thrive civilisations unheard of. Will you seek...

I was toying with the idea of making a unit that kinda petrifies. I'm working on a faction of snow monsters called snowgolems. I have seven types so far, all level 1 and with sprites. I was thinking it might be cool to add an eighth type that freezes an enemy unit solid. Petrified only means one...

0.3.2 is now available on the 1.10 server.

This is the official thread for the Age of Trials, a multiplayer era, created by me, with some graphics and stuff borrowed from various other places (mostly mainline, Era of Myths, and Extended Era) thanks to the wonders of GPL. This is of course also...

The unknown story of the group of heroes who saved the central region of the Great Continent from falling into utter chaos and created hope for lasting peace.
A story about courage and intelligence, about patience and defiance, about sacrifice.
The story of The Second great Strife

I finally started to dwell into the WML stuff and successfully created a _main.cfg and a first scenario file which worked fine for some time until I tried to make an moveto event which killed my file. Now I can´t find where to locate the is missing name or id field.
It worked before, but it seems I...

Development thread for A War of Fools.

Recently I was creatively inspired while playing some UMC campaigns and decided to make my own. I am a complete beginner with WML and map design, Im not a good writer either and english is not my native language. But after 5 days of work I managed to get 2...

Hello everyone,

This is the feedback thread for my little campaign In Defense of Kharos where we see the beginning of the Tharis invasion of Kharos on their eastern border. I really liked TLU and EoMa as an era especially. I always love to replay this campaign, but for now its the only campaign...

This is the feedback thread for For Power series. It is a multi part campaign. All chapters share the protagonist and some important characters. This is the tale of a young mage Clare and her path to power. It starts in the Northlands during The Age of Fear. Most of its scenarios take place in the...

Hello, Is it normal that nested loops (especially of the same type, within and within ) hugely decrease perfomance, to the point of being pretty much unusuable, or am I doing something wrong?

Hello, I'm gonna write about the Wesnoth wiki, since I feel that I am the only one who's updating it - the latest topic being Northern Rebirth dialogue - while almost all the other users activities last in early 2010s.
Can someone else help updating BfW wiki to the present day?

Playing on a new Android tablet, why does the mouse pointer not line up with your finger, instead of just using the whole screen like a super sized track pad?
Can it be changed to how the apple os works. Where my finger is is the pointer.

Do we have any statistics to know how many people were active, or are active now,
with a focus on art? Here I refer to graphics/images mostly, but we can extend this
to ALL art in general, including creativity/storytelling.

I don't need the specific dataset as such, just roughly to see a trend....

So, having downloaded Wesnoth a month or so ago, I decided I'd like to try my hand at making a campaign. I thought up a story hook and what I thought would be an interesting quirk, and started coding (if WML counts as coding). At this point, the campaign is complete in the sense that it is...

I'm at my wits end with this mission! I've tried for a 2 weeks to complete it, searched and tried all the different tactical approaches... but I'm still only just able to kill the Orc boss. I only have 4 lvl 2 people, and 2 of them are mermen.

Should I just start the campaign again and try to get...
