For now, this has served as the place to share information.

Project Background:

As many of you may know, I have been working for...

Hi, I want to create a custom decoration for my mod which I only want to display in between certain teams. Also I want to display the graphic on top of the units, so they are properly visible. This is why I'm using the halo property to achieve the over layer effect, but the problem is when it given...

Hey um... I never reported any glitch nor bug report, but today I was just playing with the editor
on version 1.18.2 and decided to add standard day times to the scenario (using of course the editor it self)
And when I did it, I continued building the map, I was saving from time to time (nearly...

Hey, I know I know, style of tbfw is indeed pixel art...
but I am wondering, does it make sense to try doing things in higher resolution,
and then scale it in code of the unit?

Like for example, I want to make a unit for my campaign, in 175x175 pixels instead of 72x72.
And I never really did...

Linking to this here for some extra visibility, so that no-one's surprised by any unexpected changes.

The first part of this reminded me exactly how a baddie feels when your unit makes that last 1XP and levels up :lol:

There are some pretty cool bear mounted warriors in the Reign of Lords Era. I was hoping someone with better art skills than me could make some masked variants for my campaign.

It features female dwarves, and the masked units have help a convenient fix for this so far. (Far enough in the future...

Feedback and general discussion thread for Colosseum.

Check the »Custom Options« of the maps. All maps have options which one can chose before opening the game.

Besides the maps from 1.16 there exist now 1-2 additional maps as part of the same add-on, ported from an old version.
I improved the...

Hello! I'm creating a campaign that will take place around 24,000 years BW. :geek:
I would like to know if there's someone here who could edit portraits for me. I'll be using some portraits from the main line and would like to make some changes. However, I'm not very familiar with image editing,...

EDIT : While there is mention here of improving the storyline, I have made the decision not to make any changes to the existing storyline. If they are implemented, they will be released in separate edition.

Here I would like to summarize my thoughts on the changes to the story of The Dark Hordes...

This is an idea for a unit that exists since the Dunefolk rework.

Wyverling is a form of wyvern hatched from an egg that wasn't taken care of. These are small creatures resembling a wyvern that came to be in order to ensure survival of the race when it faced extinction. Right now there are plenty...

Ka'Lian is considered as council of lords and ladies of the forests that gather together on important meetings. Rise of Wesnoth shows 4 such rulers (Lord Logalmier, Lord Aryad, Lord Isomirith, Lady Dionli (would be nice to give them representations to the forests)). But after Legend of Wesmere...

Wesnoth 1.18.2

The minimap controls are large and in a column to the left of the minimap. When I have my mouse on one, the tooltip obscures the minimap, making it hard to get any benefit from toggling the setting while watching to see what flickers.

The previous version I used (1.16) had very...

Hello,

I am really curious if there are here any actual game designers/developers who make games for a living?

I am asking, because I am interested in their opinions in certain regards.

Sincerely,

Hello! I'm here to share an idea! For campaign creators, who use different factions in the same campaign (and these factions are used by the player) I had an idea that made it a lot easier. It usually arrives at a part of the campaign where only a few units are used, and you have to store all the...
