The Battle for Wesnoth Forums

Hi all,
Porting my Randomizer to Lua and then realising global variables aren't stored in the savefile forced me to come up with this lua table converter.
I hope you can find it useful, here is the description from Readme.md:

This script converts between regular lua and lua wml tables. It is...

I've played through A Tale of Two Brothers on both easy and hard, and after winning/losing any scenario the respective victory/defeat music doesn't play like it used to in 1.12. I've validated the game files through Steam but the issue persists, has anyone else experienced this?

I'm not sure how possible this is, but it would be nice to be able to return to the Main Lobby even as you wait for the Game you created to fill up (perhaps even forward chat from your Game Lobby to the Main Lobby chat screen).

This wasn't as much a problem before since you could just create an...

When I open the unit description in wesnoth 1.14 (steam version) the units look like this

Is there a way to change it back to pixelart?
I think the issue comes with the zoom, but the Graphics scaling options in the preferences menu only apply to the ingame zoom, not the help menu....

Wesnoth 1.14.1 is now available. This is a maintenance release for the stable 1.14.x series and, as such, it delivers an assortment of bug fixes and other improvements over previous releases in this series. Check the forum thread for a more detailed list of the most notable fixes and changes in...

Some good PR and maybe food for thoughts as well.

Hi
The installation is aborted and I receive the following message:

Extract: error writing to file libfontconfig-1.dll

What should I do to solve it?

Thank you for your help

Symptoms: The affected user ceases to see updates in the game. From his POV, the game freezes: no more units are moved, other players' turns don't end, other players' messages in chat don't appear on his screen, etc. (even though other players move their units and finish their turns and type in...

The command for giving someone control of a side doesn't work, the player's name color changing to the color of that side, but the side still being under control of someone else. The host also doesn't get control of a side when the player owning that side leaves the game.

I am using BfW 1.14 Steam...

Just to test my add-on I was advancing units using the command line:

Then when I typed:

The entire game died...

I normally wouldn't have bothered saying anything, because it doesn't matter and I probably just did something wrong with the command. But I assume it is abnormal to have runtime...

Hi,

I cant access the preference menu. I always get the Error Data directory:

Checking lua scripts... ok
Caught general 'St8bad_cast' exception:
std::bad_cast

and the game crashes

Pref file looks like this:

This is basically in reply to two threads, on the forums here asking about zoom levels being restored.

Are you tired of having to press '+' a specific number of times after loading a game? Well, this doesn't save the state, but it does do the next best thing. On the suggestion of Strelock on...

I can only assume I am doing something completely stupid.

As you can see from this image the inspector reports that there is an event that should be triggered at 29,23

However, as you can see from this image I created a unit using debug and moved it there (on 29,23) and nothing...

Hi!

Just as a heads up, because after tagging version 1.13.12 (1.14 RC 1) the 1.14 maintenance branch has now diverged from the development master (from which 1.15.x releases will spring eventually), the translation stats page now considers 1.14 to be the current stable version and it will track...

I'm playing Son of the Black Eye, with v1.13.11-dev on GNU/Linux Mint 18.3.

In The Siege of Barag-Gor , during the final dialog, Kapou'e says he has fought the vanguard of the Human army but had to retreat. That is only the case if at the end of Scenario 1 you chose to stay, despite the...

I wanted to add some flavour to my era so I decided every faction will use a different language of the world and I might even learn something new while creating my add-on. But Google Translator isn't the best source and I want the naming to be perfect in the specific language.

Those are:

Do you want to find out which new evils come to wesnoth?
Do you want to know what this new foe can do?

Then download the Faction The Soul's Order on the 1.13.x addon server.

Ahem...

I created a faction which requires feedback and balancing.
You are invited to critisize, make suggestions and...
