The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Hi (again),
Recently migrated my half-done UMC from v14 to v15 (mainly 'cos by the time the damn thing's finished we'll be on v22.87).

Aaaanyway, what I had worked pretty well on v14.
Since then I have made significant code changes (partly to align with v15, e.g. Wose Shamans now in core, special...

Hello everyone, it's been a while since I posted in these forums :)

In the past year I've been hard at work to make a spire-like card game of my own design. I have extensive experience of making card games based on trademarks owned by other people and I wished to create something that becomes...

Hey, i was reading the WML, Pblwml, AddonStructure, Distributing Content, etc. I am somewhat confused.
I wanted to upload my scenarios to the official wesnoth addons, turns out it is a little complicated. Atleast for me!

Wesnoth has its own official youtube channel, could you guys make a super...

A call for help
For essentially the past year I have been developing my 19th century fantasy era, the Era of Empires or EoE for short.
But I have now discovered that at the pace I am working I won't be able to get it done at all. So I am asking for any volunteers to help me with my era. It will...

Hi,
noticed that for the Elder Falcon the claws have the charge special.

The falcon has this on the beak attack as is the case for 1.14.

Had a quick skim and couldn't find an mention of it hence this post.
Apologies if it has been reported.

Cheers,

At this point in my first game back, I'm supposed to have dealt more than double the damage I've taken; but I've taken more damage than I've dealt instead. :lol:

If you have any requests or comments regarding this add-on, just post them here.

Back in 2015, a dire warning went out about the state of Wesnoth's development - the entire Wesnoth project was in danger of slowing to a halt; the ship is sinking .

Fast forward to now, and I'm glad I'm able to say that the situation is no longer quite so dire. The project's internal structure...

Hi,

There a weird bug when applying overlays in 1.14.

Add an overlay image to some unit using apply_to=overlay . If you check the unit in debug :inspect, the overlays= field will show the image file twice.
For every subsequent non-overlay object given to the unit, the image overlay gets...

The generation of unit names using context-free grammar in BFW1.14 is pretty clear :
using male_name_generator/female_name_generator works (see drakes)
using name_generator doesn't (see saurians)

Given this statement is questioned repeatedly by developers, it appears that this is potentially...

One of Fate of a Princess' charms, IMO, is the way the SkyOne found new uses for existing aspects of the game.
To quote myself -
For example, a shaman healing animation is reused without its halo as a child jumping for joy, which is rather cute.
The berserker laugh is used as just a laugh, in a...

Hello.
As an orcs' fan and PVP's coward, here I share my SotBE(Difficult) replays with you. :)
Version:1.14.X

There's scenario 1,3-11. As of the rest, they seem exhausting. Though I have finished all scenarios under difficulty “Challenging”, I don't want to play the rest of “Difficult” for now....

I recently uploaded my add-on Corpse Mod 2 and made custom images for many units, where they are dead, but I didn't really manage to do a good frame for the horse units from the Rebels faction. I've tried, as you can see:

But looking at this, I know it's terrible. Maybe someone better at doing...

A somewhat belated (sorry!) update for iOS is in progress.

I'm working on a couple of known bugs:

* When opening Add-Ons screen, if a certain (unknown) add-on is installed, the game crashes.
Known to reproduce on iPad Air 2, maybe on other hardware too. A workaround is to reinstall the game. Save...

Hi gents,
while reviewing italian translation of SoF campaign (dev branch), between the other untranslated strings I found the description of the various dwarf stash, for example this one:

Greetings,

Unless it's fixed before this was presented, the problem affects statistics for Battle for Wesnoth versions 1.12 and above, including developemental builds.

Hi,

There are 2 new ideas and a change from WC II.

The first idea is to limit the recruitment/recall of one type of unit to avoid spamming units. Example, at scenario 1, the max is 2 units. So you play loyalists and you recruit 2 spearmen : A and B. You cannot recruit another spearman. During the...
