The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

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,...

The purpose of this thread is to discuss the development of the mainline campaign The Legend of Wesmere .

Please check the version of Wesnoth you are using before posting.
Comments on the 1.7 and 1.8 versions are meant to go there:

I've been (re)playing (and enjoying, tbh) the Heir to the Throne campaign, and I've played it many times before, but I would absolutely love to contribute to this great game by putting my writing skills to good use and doing something about the (often comically) awful dialogues. My eyes have...

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...

Item is still visible in fog. This is the only code that places the item.

I can't properly reproduce the problem, I've only been able to reproduce it in the first video. This event, by removing the item (a blue eye icon, which can be seen in the third video on other units) removed the unit's poisoned status.

In the second video I fixed this...

Is there a way to hide the energy bars, XP, orbs and overlays, the same way this WML code does?
To be able to apply it more generally in more situations with lua, not only on with_bars=no , which is the only way in all WML that I can do that.

This is an update to the multiplayer scenario King of the Hill aimed at replacing the existing mainline version for the BfW 1.18 release.

The premise of this scenario has always been for players to fight over the central castle (the hill). Yet the scenario gave no perks to combat the downsides of...

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...

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...

Hi,

I'm struggling to get to work and would like some help please.

What I'm trying to achieve is when a waterborne enemy leader dies to remove all their castle and keep overlays (atop water terrain).
I do this sort of thing quite often but there...

A week ago I finally finished all the mainline campaigns (yay!), after holding off on Dead Water for a long time. This got me thinking about what I liked best from different campaigns, which made me think that I should ask y’all what have been some of the your most memorable experiences. By...

Hello, I am inferno8 and this thread is about my era. The Era of Magic has been in development since 2007 and at the moment contains 8 playable factions with fully animated units (more than 270!) and tons of special effects. The aim of EoMa is to make the most visually appealing and nice to play...

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....

The Great Steppe is an era about the far-eastern lands of Irdia. There, on plains surrounded by forest from the north and desert from the south, burn the flames of a new war. Burned villages, captured prisoners, slave trade, betrayal - the era will demonstrate the brutal steppe wars in all their...

Greetings!
I just came back to Wesnoth after a long break since 1.8 version and I saw a player named nuclearmind in a 1v1 game and I asked him what does ladder mean? The man patiently explained I must contact Cackfiend which is what I did. At first Cackfiend seemed really friendly and polite and he...

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?
