The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

What type of topics can be posted here, what things we can post in off-topic boards?

I'm a game writer who just got back into his craft I'm trying to find projects so that could make a portfolio for future opportunities.
I was interested in writing some light progressive stories
For example a corrupt king, Queen or Tyrant are close to ultimate domination and the players can decide...

Here is a copy of the novel, Battle for Wesnoth: Heir to the Throne which I released in late 2019. I had to scale down the images to fit the attachment requirements of the forum. If anyone has a chance to read it, please feel free to comment.

In the Ladder Era the Footpad does Slashing damage for his melee attack. I need to have the club art changed slightly to be a hatchet. Would anyone be willing to do this for me? Please and thank you :)

Narrow symmetrical vertical map. Lots of cave terrain, impassables, holes, water. Don't worry - there are trees too. 2nd player has several pre-captured villages to balance out 1st player's advantage. Only one map version this time - for Wesnoth 1.15 since i've placed some mushrooms on different...

Hi!

As it currently is, to play Wesnoth multiplayer one must now register on this forum, but regrettably despite the large number of languages that Wesnoth has been translated into it is now that the only language supported for forum registration is English. This means that despite the main page...

bottom village variant - if i place it with SHIFT+click , it uses bright green grass instead of whatever terrain the tile already has.

one village of type Log Cabin has baked-in terrain, while others does not. the broken village is the top left one:

(Disclaimer: I am nobody and probably won't make anything)

I'm pretty sure the AI will automatically know how to correctly use abilities which alter damage/healing during combat, e.g. a 1% chance to do 9999 damage. I'm not so sure whether they would be able to correctly use auras similar to...

I have tried to create a system of walking corpses like animated corpses from Era of Magic. Something went wrong with my wml, so I decided just to drop my redrawings of default wesnoth units here:

If undead redraws are useful for you, give a comment here. I need it to understand should I make...

I know there's been a lot of discussion on this and I don't want to reopen it. However the new implementation adopted for 1.15, which I believe is the one described here , presents some inconsistencies. On the positive side, the modification required should be trivial.

Problem with current...

The addon Age of Tentacles exists for a while now. It contains a faction of several fully animated units, including giant centipedes of several kinds, shessinsaans (Large quadrupedal predator reptiles), dragonflies and mosquitoes, both similar to real life Culex Pipiens but much larger and several...

Salutations,

I have an event in the scenario I'm currently working on that causes a random amount of walking corpses to spawn on deep water hexes (Wot). The problem, however, is that the player can see them, even though they're all in deep water, with deep water adjacent hexes, and I want them to...

Howdy, I am making two walker sprites for my 19th century fantasy era. They are the Barbarossa and Prince Albrecht walkers used by the Dwarven Kingdom of Zwergenland.

I am struggling quite a bit with shading and coloring the sprites, here is what I have so far.

I've been thinking a lot lately about the tools we use to communicate with one another, and something really struck me as problem with our current situation. While minetest has a great forum culture, it doesn't really generalize to other freedom respecting software games with smaller communities,...

Hello everyone! I'm proud to introduce a new extremely experimental add-on, LotI RPG Era.

The era consists of all units with AMLAs from Legend of the Invincibles campaign. Also I added several more units and LotI style advancements for them, more units coming.

The era consists of 5 leagues, I...

Al units look fine, but I preferred the old version of the Poacher, this one looks too similar to the Elvish Archer.
Anyone else thinks so ?

Help Against Covid-19
For the safety of everyone and the ppl of Wesnoth, please redraw all the units with a medical mask. :) :mrgreen:

I uploaded to the add-on server my completed campaign, titled The Pool of Ek. I purposefully crammed this simple, little campaign with examples of almost every tag. If you are learning WML and need a specific code example, there's a good chance that the one you need appears in The Pool of Ek....

I play WC II a lot. I'm very noob so i play Guild faction. and fav add-ons :mrgreen: item drop mod. and extra advancements.

Hey,
I tried to install wesnoth using the flatpak build:

I am not entirely sure why this happen, but it could be because of my bad internet connection (~50kb/s atm at its lowest it fluctuates a lot). If it is a timeout it is oddly named though (there wasn't a 'real' connection loss at any...
