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,...
As mentioned in the Wesnoth 1.14.4 release announcement, all previous Wesnoth versions including Lua scripting support are affected by a security vulnerability which potentially allows a malicious party to execute arbitrary code through the Lua engine by using specially-crafted code in...

A nightly build of wesnoth master branch is available as a flatpak package now.
Flatpak is a new package format for linux distros that allows distro-independent releases as well as runs applications in a sandbox for security.
You can check here how to set it up on your distro.
Hello, I have been trying to compile the latest master branch for the past 30 days. The INSTALL.md file in the official repo was too complicated to understand so, I was recommended the compiling wesnoth with mysys2 guide
I followed every step since it was very beginner-friendly, and finally got...
1. Is it useful to enable link-time optimizations (LTO) when building?
2. Is it _safe_ to enable LTO when building?
3. Why is executable hardening enabled when building? Why do I need hardened executables?
I'm building on a Devuan GNU/Linux Chimaera machine, GCC 10.2.1

I have 1.16 installed via flatpak as the stable branch. When 1.16.1 came out I did a flatpak update as root and it installed and updated a few things including 3 Mb of update from 1.16 to 1.16.1.
However when I ran the new program it was still 1.16.0. What happened?
I just looked and it has the 1.16.0 version listed but the 1.14 branch that was setup last summer is not listed on the website. Both are listed via the command line flatpak. Has the 1.14 branch been supressed on the website to avoid confusing computer newbies?
After more than three years of development and thousands of commits made by dozens of contributors, the Battle for Wesnoth development team is proud to announce the availability of version 1.16.0 on Windows, macOS, and Linux! This...
are there any plans to release Battle for Wesnoth as appImage?
appImage is packaging format similar to flatpak except it also does not require installation and (typically) contains all its dependencies (except linux kernel and drivers) inside appimage file itself.
I had some weird kind of fun :geek: compiling old versions of wesnoth on debian. Since I am not the first to consider such a plan, I am sharing my progress on this. The whole thread is worth checking for those interested. It gives basically the full range of possibilities:
run old win binaries on...
I spent the last 4 days trying to compile Wesnoth 1.14.17 on my Ubuntu 20.04LTS system. I finally succeeded a couple of minutes ago.
I think there's a problem with the Boost 1.76.00 libraries, but I'm not a programmer and can't confirm it. Compiling _always_ failed on the wesnoth.c source file...
For players, this is a great chance to take a look at what's changed and been added since 1.14, and there is a lot! A variety of new units have been added, the Dunefolk faction has been entirely rebalanced along with many other units, unit sprites have been updated and animations added, Descent...

Add-on version check when uploading
Additionally, in an effort to help avoid potential issues, when uploading an add-on you've created to the official add-ons server you must now always increment the add-on's version. Attempting to upload an...
