Problem: I can’t figure out how to install/run wesnoth
Don’t panic!
You have probably downloaded the source code when you wanted the binary. Nevermind if you don’t know what those terms mean, just proceed to step 3.
Identify your Operating System (OS). A good bet would be Microsoft Windows,...
This may be not a proper technical report, but still. Many players today report occasional lags when you attack or buy a unit. The action is performed after 10-30 sec. lags. Connections are okay, and chat is working. Many players report this, so probably the mp server has some kind of trouble
So, I have a folder on my home computer that, when substituted for the Wesnoth data folder, causes Wesnoth to always reload its data when it restarts (i.e. clear its cache).
I also have some dubious memories of happening an option for that and setting it some months ago.
when I play, I got this message connection timed out frequently. I remember now that I got this message at the beginning of this year but since may (or april), it is everytime I play. I bolded everytime because it appears everytime after 18:00 ; in the morning, afternoun before 18:00, I...
So, it's some days that I got a problem with the lobby screen size, a part is missing and a bar on the bottom appeared with which I have to scroll right and left.
I fixed it briefly by accident (IDK what I did), but then the problem came back.
The rest of the screens and menus are in the right...
I could not join winkiethesnails' game with Ageless Era. Has anyone seen this message before? Usually it just asks to download the add on or says which version of the addon the host uses.
On 1.16.6, when I have too many eras installed I cannot pick the ones at the bottom, they are visible and clickable, but if i click them it rolls over and selects one of the selectable eras.
This is something that I think more than a few people have encountered: somehow, the add-ons, or GUI gets corrupted, and the add-ons that you select when creating a game are not actually selected. The only way to tell that it isn't working is to start the game, and then realize that (e.g., random...
i remember there was (perhaps an unstable) version of wesnoth where you could change the way graphics were smoothed by using BRZ and other stuff.
you could simply use whatever you wanted.
it sems if you look at unit descriptions this method is used. ingame it seems this method is not...
In the start gui (load, campaigns, etc), choose preferences, display, resolution -- in my case 1920x1012 w/o full screen.
Choose 1024x768
Choose 1920x1080
Workaround: After selecting 1024x768, hit the maximize button (the square) in the top right of the window before...

I upgrade to Debian 12 (bookworm) and not only my campaigns disappeared but there is no sound. All the boxes in preferences / sounds are ticked ... any ideas?
So I wanted to play with expanded roster of races and add Era of Magic races to the core ones. So far the only way to do this I found is through the Ageless era. But Ageless era also introduce a lot of other factions including few different versions of core races.
Bug : the campaign menu only contain the tutorial , no campaign...

Hi, I'm amazed tbh that nobody noticed or reported, but the alternative mp server seems to be down, from yesterday at least. shows it offline and showed it offline yesterday
Today I just played my first multiplayer game. I minimized game for a few minutes. When I maximized it, it was just a black screen, and there was nothing except for a short line of pixels with alternating colors. I think those colors were red, green, and blue. The line was like 9-12 pixels long I...
Any time I allow the credits to roll, after they are done Wesnoth crashes with this error message:
Caught general 'St12length_error' exception:

I'm on Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and I have Wesnoth 1.16.2 installed from the software centre. The problem is there is only the training campaign available.

Hi guys, I have some issue with the subject message. On multiplayer when I create a new game and I wait for somebody join, if I wait more than about ten minutes then it's like my host gets disconnected. I don't get this error message at once, so I can continue to wait for somebody but I'll no more...
