I will be using a Swiss Magic: The Gathering style tournament structure. That means a certain number of rounds based on how...

This is the feedback forum for the Legend of the Invincibles singleplayer campaign. If you have played the campaign and have any comments regarding it (bugs, difficulty), feel free to post about it here, I am interested in reading it, even if it is a petty thing. Because of the size of 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?

Hi! On the 1st September I present you another one WWII UMC :) I know there have been plenty before. What's different this time, you may ask? Well, for one, I want to try a different approach. Instead of trying to turn Wesnoth into a hardcore wargame, I will try to adhere to the KISS principle and...

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...

i hope make a add-on,player can choose give all units abilitie to start
I want to choose different abilitie for different factions in the start settings
Or ask to select the abilitie right after the game starts
If it is selected after the game starts, I hope that all players can know the choices of...

So after looking through the entire 17 pages of this forum, this is what I've come up with. Everything I didn't include I either somehow missed when looking through the threads (I clicked on every non-locked one). If you have one that was posted here that I don't have, please upload it to the...

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...

Hello,

I have made a new campaign, Kill the King. It's a short campaign (I'd like to call it very short campaign , but there are many shorter campaigns) where you play undead. The plot is quite far fetched, we just had a few wacky ideas with Chewan and we decided to make a campaign from it just...

Recently got back to wesnoth and after playing for a few days I wanted to make a scenario of a cave. However I ran into this issue (images attached).

This happens both when making a scenario or a normal map. Im not sure if its a bug or my files are somehow messed up. I tried reinstalling wesnoth,...

I wanted to try my hand at creating a series depicting the Wesnothian Civil War, between Konrad and his allies and Queen Asheviere. However, I'm no animator, and I figured Every Day or Every Week would be far more challenging.

I had to add some stuff to fluff up the lore, as I assume the liberated...

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...

(2) How difficult did you find the scenario? (1-10)
(3) How clear did you find the scenario objectives?
(4) How clear and interesting did you find the dialog and storyline of the scenario?
(5) What were your major...

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 present to your attention the SP-campaign of the Ogre Kingdom - Deeds of Sir Swine! Campaign available on 1.16 addons server
Description: Oh, those chivalric stories! The hero in them is always so noble, brave, fights evil, makes friends with elves, wins. Ugh! These stories aren't worth a damn,...

hi, so, i made this mod a while ago, but it didn't work. Now it does, and i released it as an addon, here is the description.

Need to urgently level up a unit? some high level unit of yours stole the otherwise useful XP? have a lot of units with small amount of exp? a unit with a lot XP is about...

Hello,

I am a great fan of the game, and I like it so much that I decided to make a couple of scenarios that utilize, to the fullest, the original mechanics of the game, as opposed to implementing new mechanics. I took inspiration from the old Myth series from Bungie , and I am hoping to recreate...

I know about Bob's great RPG's but they are designed for level 2 characters (same as Bob's RPG Era which uses level 2's) not level 1's.

I have not really seen any RPG's which are designed for level 1 characters but there are a few custom eras out there which have RPG eras.

So I was wondering...

Strange Legacy

What: Fantasy Trading Sim, RPG
Wesnoth Versions: 1.10.7; 11.13, 12.4, 13.4, 14, 16+
Story:

The orcish invasion came so quickly and the human kingdom was so unprepared, that half of the northland fell into the hands of the orcs within one year. The winter had stopped their...

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...

Although I'm a very new Mac user, I feel like this is an issue that's not been talked about much in the past 2 years of Apple Silicon-based Macs.

The official Steam client released by Valve is an Intel (x86_64) app even on Apple Silicon (arm64), and as a result it's very slow and has some...

Hi,
I'm having fun and games trying to get to work as I want/expected.
I've go to the point where I need to get advice from people more knowledgeable than me.

Edit: I've got things working the way I wanted using a bodge involving multiple flag variables but would still appreciate clarification :)...

Hello all!

So it's been a long time since I've tried anything like this, and I've never completed a campaign before, but I figured I'd give it a shot.

This campaign takes place during the orcish civil war early on in Wesnoth history: pre-100YW. It focuses on one orcish clan and the journey that...

Note that OS's not currently receiving regular security updates (macOS 10.9 & earlier and Microsoft Vista & earlier) are not listed in the poll. For these, please use 'None of the Above' and comment in...

I am observing this trend for quite long and it saddens me. And I am not the only one. Good looking units are being replaced by units that aren't better, with animations to be added (in year 2384). The result is that the game has less and less animated units (not speaking about saurians and such,...

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...

Hi! Some may have already seen me on this forum. Putting aside the idea of using in redrawing loyalist (I draw well enough, what would qualify for mainline) I started to draw a faction of dark elves. I know I'm not the first, not I last, but not the one proposed in the Addons factions of drow I...

Hello, I would like to share some altered/new sprites that I have been working on to the community of Wesnoth. I was working on making a add-on but I have to abandon it. All the altered/new sprites respectively should be fully credited to the original creators of the sprites as I only...
