The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Wesband is a multiplayer dungeon-crawler campaign for Wesnoth, much influenced by Zangband. The project was originally started by Dovolente, who is too busy with real life to deal with Wesnoth.

Spannerbag and I started on tangent on this topic over in my thread about mainlining UMC music:
Specifically, see this post:
Anyways, I'm splitting off a separate thread for that topic, specifically, this one. We're mostly focusing on categorizing the tracks by mood for The Earth's Gut (TEG) for...

i just finished utbs and im curious if there is more information on the gods of wesnoth, like how extensive is the lore around this topic?

I decided to install the latest stable BfW from Steam after a Windows reinstall.
However, whenever I launch the game and get to the main menu, the music crackles a bit. And when I press the buttons on the menus, the sound effects are also crackling. From what my ears can tell, the crackling seems...

I'm trying to get the patch for boost-1.83 from github, I can see it but I'm unable to download it. I've been getting patches from github in past, what has changed? Am I suddenly getting dumber or there is some trick I don't see? Or github has microsofted and turned against users?

A fork of MP Wesband .

Start it from Campaigns->Weshack on the Main screen.

Do not start it from inside Multiplayer. I don't know what would happen if you did that.

For the multiplayer version, download and use Wesband.

Maybe these are more design questions than WML questions, but I feel like I'm missing something, so I'll ask anyway. Is there an easy way to set a side's current gold to a specific value, instead of adding to it? I seem to have figured out how to do it below, but I'm surprised there isn't a more...

I want to make a new faction for my era. The faction is about humans and animals who live in mountains. This unit is an falcon-trainer. It´s not complete yet, but please tell me what you like and dislike about it.

Hello again!

I guess this is my first time to get serious with WML and Wesnoth, after all of these years. I tend to make assumptions based upon other languages I've programmed in and that's biting me in the back side! I've searched and read a lot and cannot find a working solution.

I have an...

Hello,

I'm playing with Wesband/Weshack and I would like a top-level menu item who's description changes dynamically based upon data about the hex of the mouse-down. I didn't see anything in EventWML and I've seen posts that suggest you can't hook it in lua? Can anybody tell me how I can run some...

Hi,

How difficult is creating an artificial intelligence interface that is agnostic to a specific programming language?

I've read some on how the AI works and the supported interfaces ( (

I was (humbly) expecting that a given round is defined by a state given by the map and the units seen (plus...
