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,...
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 other’s...
There will be a few changes in policy in Off-Topic from now on:
noprune Autopruning is no more. All posts in Off-Topic will be preserved in the database and they are now strictly subject to the Posting Guidelines as are posts in all the other forums. ( # )
nonsense Off-Topic is often...
What does professional mean to you?
Easy, consult a dictionary: You'll find (various) entries which say something along the lines of it being an adjective and deriving from profession - what people for money...
So a professional game would be what? a game that people make money out of? a game that...
I know it kills the charm of a bare-bone webserver directory, but:
The app runs on heroku's free tier and the database is already 17-times the allowed size (of 10.000 rows)
for version 1.12 replays alone. This means support will deny write access soon. Unfortunately, apps are...
Again, because it will never be done or if it will, then certainly not by me, here's another Idea I've been having that might interest... ummm.. somebody, but I'll post in off-topic.
You know what always annoyed me? My Archer shooting at a BIG FRIGGIN Ogre and missing over and over, just because...
I'm looking to replace a dying hand-me-down monitor (Samsung 906BW). After 4 months, I'm still using it. Might go blind if I don't do anything about it soon :lol:. The cheaper the better but good enough to play Wesnoth, of course, and colour-accurate enough to edit photos.
I have been using the Battle for Westfront Era for a few weeks. Ruglud, I want to commend you on doing a fantastic job. Keep up the good work and may I see more of this from you.
My sister is having technical problems with regards to her work involving dropbox. She bought a Macbook Pro for her work which has 128GB of ROM memory. So what happened is that she is doing graphic design for a fashion company and this company has a dropbox cloud wherein all the workers are syncing...
Don't be warned about the title, no need to raise a global thermo-nuclear alarm! This topic is for things you find funny,silly,whacky and things that can make you cry both in-game and in real life. So, as OP of the thread I will now post the very first one!
Ok, so somebody gave me a whole bunch of warhammer Skaven a while back, he'd only done a tiny bit of the assembly and made an abortive attempt at painting them.
I can't afford to buy tons more models and only has 1 unit of clanrats and 1 of nightrunners + 1 packmaster with 6 giant rats.
I'd gone so...
So for all the years I've been playing Wesnoth, I thought that shadowm must have gone to a lot of trouble to draw is avatar pic. Then I ran into Order of the Stick and my respect for him increased by about 1000%. I haven't laughed so hard in a LONG time. This strip, in turn, led me to find erfworld...
Runewars is a board game that seems to me to be the closest board game to Wesnoth.
First off, the map is made of hexes. You and the other players make the board every game.
There are four factions, so four players can play. They are humans, elves, undead, and demons (pretty much orcs).
Towns...
This is not meant as a political discussion.
I've just noticed a lot of people on the forum seem to come from eastern europe these days. Wesnoth is enjoyed by people around the world, but I was wondering if/how different cultures contributing could make the game more interesting.
We are a small team working on a new online game in the style of Travian. We have a very limited budget (out of our pockets), and are considering using ready made artwork (possibly with some adaptation). I checked the licence of Battle for Wesnoth on Github and it says the source is...
I recently read an article that says that Windows 10 will require Secure Boot enabled and the possibility of deactivation is left to the OEM manufacturers.
If they decide that you can not disable Secure Boot, you can not install Linux or any other alternative OS. It is very sad for me, because it...
A quote from Arthur C. Clarke: ¨any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic¨ made me think about its meaning.
Thinking about it, I found a table-top roleplaying game called Numenera .
The game takes place in a very distant future (~1 billion years), in which there were...
As mentioned in a thread on the forum, I started playing NWN and get familiar with the D&D system.
A problem with D&D is that it is hard to understand, at least for me.
In particular, I do not understand clearly what a dice means and how it work.
For example, 2d4 means any number between 1 and 8?...
Let me explain that concept in the title: if two players play a strategy game against each other really many times, no one has a handicap, both play as well as they can and either one nearly always wins, then those players have a different playing skill level in that game.
Windows keeps deleting Wesnoth and basically every other game I download from sourceforge. It also deleted my entire downloads folder and more. Can anyone recommend what I should do?
P.S. never buying a windows again. The antiviruses are worse than most viruses, updates default to being forced,...
Will Wesnoth participate in the Google Summer of Code this year?
I wonder how was the students' participation (conflict, difficulty, time required, learning) and the minimum level of knowledge in order to participate (profitably).
I know it varies from project to project, but I would have a...
Who knew the merfolk were secret steampunk fans? Well their secret's out now.
There's a couple of other photos of the same model in the artist's portfolio. I picked this one because it advertises the photographer's main website. Help a working stiff and all that...
I thought I'd plug a Kickstarter campaign that needs some help here in the UK. The Hen Commandments is a board game based on the absurdist proclamations of a chicken god. Looks like good fun.
I came across it cos it's being made by Terrorbull Games, a two-man organisation who've already made two...
So, since Ubisoft recently announced they will be releasing Heroes 3 HD I decided it would be a good time to make one of my silly little reviews for the classic game.
Also I put together a trailer for the game (it might not look like much but it took me 80+ hours to put together)
I read a science fiction story lately in which there was a major, catastrophic global economic crash because humans encountered another intelligent spieces.
Sounds far fetched?
Consider who our economy works:
We create demand, control supply and 'fix prices' to create value (this is not always a...
Hola a todos, soy nuevo por aquí, aunque vengo jugando este gran juego hace muchos años, me pregunto si en está pagina hay alguna sub-comunidad en la que hablen español. Saludos !!!
Hello everyone, I'm new here, but I've been playing this great game for many years, I wonder if there are any...
I was just wondering, since people from all over the world chat here, if any of you do kite fighting as a hobby?
If so post pictures of you kites!
At the art gallery where I work I had the brilliant idea of a painted/decorated kite exhibition - I sold the idea to the partners who own the gallery...
Some of you are familiar with it. Some of you, doubtless, are not. The goal is the write a 50,000-word work of fiction, starting on November 1 and finishing on or before November 30. It's a lot of writing, but it's certainly possible even if you have a full-time job. I did it last year and it was a...
