Several of our mainline campaigns are in the works for upgrades at the moment, which includes adding characters and enhancing existing scenarios. We are looking for more artwork to supplement these upgrades, including the following:
We are happy to announce that Wesnoth is now able to accept donations on Liberapay. While Wesnoth does rely on the work of dedicated volunteers, no project can function completely cost-free. Revenue from the Apple App Store and from donations goes towards maintaining our servers,...

It looks good at the bottom since the page isnt too long; i had no problem finding it.
There have been numerous important forum posts and wiki articles written by users and developers. We reference these pages a lot, and decided to put them together in a convenient list. ------
Write clearly, be nice to others, and be very careful when posting anything related to politics or religion. When asking for help, remember that everyone here is a volunteer. Prefer editing your previous post over double posting. No animated avatars or graphical signatures. Don’t plagiarize...

I’ve registered an account but can’t join the official server. I’m playing this game for the first time ever.
After pressing “Join Official Server,” I wait and then see a connection timeout error.

Are you posting from the same device that you run wesnoth on?
Yes. Additionally, for some reason, when I tried to register, the website said that my username was already taken. Then I tried to register with another username, and when I checked my email, I...
When you hover over the unit attack icons in the sidebar, a tooltip is displayed showing the range, damage type and then percentage modifiers against other units. But it doesn't seem to work any more and all units are listed as if having no vulnerabilities.
In DiD I see if I hover over an orcish...

It says, the version of wesnoth is 1.19.11, and it announce what is the update, but when I play the game, it still says 1.18.5
I'm excited for "The Deceiver’s Gambit" update, but when I open the game, it still “Delfador’s Memoirs”, maybe because it still says 1.18.5 i guess?
can anyone help me?...

Perhaps there needs to be a distinction or more clarity between the update posts on Steam - I imagine many players aren't necessarily familiar with the even/odd stable/development branch convention. I remain on stable on Steam but I also get update messages for development.
Play the subject scenario to see this behaviour, unsure if specific conditions are needed but it seems to be consistent. As described, one of the enemy leaders will simply recruit one keep of units, then not move any of them until one of your units moves within...

Once Kalenz arrives, orc army does 1 of three possible tactics. Seems the default one "wait". Getting played more often.
Hello,
I don’t like that the computer essentially chooses which weapon is best for an attack now. In earlier versions, you had to manually select a weapon and compare the potential battle outcomes using the damage calculation feature. Nowadays, I rarely check the damage calculations because there’s...

I would like to say that when you create unit text file cfg and inside it you use base unit then abilities arent taken from base unit to current one file. You can check it on units from era clash of lords. Some units doesnt have nightstalk, curing, healing and so on. I guess its a bug....
Last post
It's true that the abilities don't appear on the base_unit pages while the abilities appear in the original unit description, is that what you were talking about?
I would like to say that updating addons doesnt work, Wesnoth v1.18.3. It shows downloading window but it doesnt fill up with passing time. There is work around for this bug and its to delete addon and download it then, new version.
OS - Windows 10, Polish Language
Build - The Battle for Wesnoth version 1.19.8 x86_64 Running on Microsoft Windows 10 22H2 (10.0.19045) x86_64

This is a result of the Help being converted from the old GUI and is a major ongoing piece of work (was introduced since 1.19.4).
There have been significant improvements in the current master branch, but this isn't yet included in the current development release. If you're interested you can see...
I returned to The Battle for Wesnoth today after a week away from the game only to find that my saved games folder is now empty. On further investigation all my other Wesnoth1.18 folders are empty too. I can only assume that after the latest update I have lost all my saved games, add ons and custom...

No, without the logs being present it's hard to say. It's very strange that the log files are created by empty though.
Yesterday for some reason I completely lost connection, wasn't able to do my moves, but the timer still counted down. After leaving the game, server list wouldn't refresh; it would stay as it was before I joined that game.
Apparently it seems like from the 3rd person view I just disconnected the...
Hello. Ive a trouble with changing side control in game cause it takes too small time for ai to end, to click it to undroid side. I dont know in which Wesnoth version you set it to unallow changing side control during other sides turn but I want you to change it back. To be able to undroid side...

It appears that in an all AI game you can only droid side 1. Seems like a bug.
It has been noted that If you place a unit and then immediately after make it animate the post_teleport animation, there’s a frame of the unit fully-visible before the animation begins. This occurs even in official campaigns like scenario 15 of Eastern Invasion.
Is it possible to look for attachments/images at wesnoth forum, art workshop? To do it without opening each topic seperatly?

Scenarios that use the {NO_MAP_DATA} macro cause the game to stop and return to the main Windows page.
There isn't error message and the log file says nothing about it, but I assume that the problem is in the aforementioned macro because it happened in two...
Last post
I did some experiments and discovered that what caused the problem was not the macro {NO_MAP_DATA}, but rather the lack of a side in the scenario code;
in fact adding any side to the scenario code Bfw does not interrupt.
Anyway Delfador Memoirs isn't playable in Bfw 1.19.5 without some changes.

Finally I found the folder with the saves and replays.
I attach, if anyone is interested, the beginning of the scenario in question, playable but without the leaders of the factions controlled by the human player.

Hi everyone. I noticed a very naughty bug: when in "Delfadors' Memoirs" campaign I come to the beginning of the "Prince of Wesnoth" scenario, it shows the initial frames with lore text, but then the game freezes after showing the map with the path and crossed swords indicator. Mouse cursor moves,...
