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,...
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...
I can find no posts about this so I may as well start one.
The rats are quite interesting, 5 unit types, 4 are rats, 1 is a lev0 peasant that can grow into a rat. The berserker and the bat max at level 2 but are probably overpowered. The berserkers can kill almost anything and the bats are...
The purpose of this poll is to get an idea of what platforms are being used by our forum members. Note that OS's not currently receiving regular security updates (macOS 10.9 & earlier and Microsoft Vista & earlier) are not listed in the poll. For these, please use 'None of the Above' and comment in...
Is anyone able to connect to the version 1.14 add-ons server? If I try it running version 1.14.17 it just gives me the error Remote host disconnected. It seems like it's been like this for at least a day.
I tried to edit the wiki How to play series for Orcs because there are about 7 or 8 typos and mispellings in that wiki starting from the end troll of the troll whelp description in Northerners vs Rebels but could not log in. My forum account still works. I am trying to help improve orcish literacy...
I think that, in this thread, players can ask and share information about nice add-ons. If you ask recommendations here, please tell what kind of add-ons you like.
I'd like to know about add-ons that 1. have the player control as few units as possible at the same time 2. where the player can...
It simply is. RNG is too much of a factor and there is little to no room for error, since your units can die too easily and too fast, so you can't even retreat them.
Naturally, it also depends on campaign to a point, and some add-ons/campaigns feel like they were made by masochists. To illustrate...
A week ago I finally finished all the mainline campaigns (yay!), after holding off on Dead Water for a long time. This got me thinking about what I liked best from different campaigns, which made me think that I should ask y’all what have been some of the your most memorable experiences. By...
Greetings!
I just came back to Wesnoth after a long break since 1.8 version and I saw a player named nuclearmind in a 1v1 game and I asked him what does ladder mean? The man patiently explained I must contact Cackfiend which is what I did. At first Cackfiend seemed really friendly and polite and he...
Playing on a new Android tablet, why does the mouse pointer not line up with your finger, instead of just using the whole screen like a super sized track pad?
Can it be changed to how the apple os works. Where my finger is is the pointer.
I am observing this trend for quite long and it saddens me. And I am not the only one. Good looking units are being replaced by units that aren't better, with animations to be added (in year 2384). The result is that the game has less and less animated units (not speaking about saurians and such,...
Hi! I was first introduced to Battle for Wesnoth many years ago via a Linux distribution called Knoppix Games. Just for old times' sake, does anyone know which version of Battle for Wesnoth came with it?
This was brought up in a conversation and I am curious to know what the thoughts of the community are on the topic of recall list compositions?
This is mostly for long campaigns, which I have meant a campaign that might be over 13 scenarios in length. I just took 13 as an arbitrary...
I tried playing with about 200% zoom and I was stunned at the detail I could now see. The animations just pop out and really are amazing. The terrain is fantastic. I could actually recognize a palm tree on the oasis hex!
For context I have a 17 flat screen monitor 4:3 aspect ratio, an older model...
Hi there.
I recently came across Era of Magic addon with a friend and enjoyed multiplayer games with the factions.
Now curios , what about single player. Are there any community made campaigns ?
I just put a new modification called AI Settings Tool onto the 1.16 add-ons server. It provides a GUI for modifying parameters of the Default and Experimental AIs in both MP and SP. The Wesnoth AI is very modifiable, but so far changing the parameters was only possible via code. This GUI allows...
I started playing Wesnoth a few years back and find myself coming back to it on a regular basis. I am curious though are there plans for continued development on the game? Not that the game isn’t already great and very playable, but I do see some room for improvement. Things like updated unit art...
I've always loved the idea of the Eastern Invasion mainline campaigns, but felt the execution was... lacking. For my own enjoyment, I've spent around a year (on-and-off) making a lot of changes, including a few new maps, a different plot with more characterization, and extensive...
Hey. What are the the best faction mods? The most animated ones with alot of new factions and units? Balance isn't that necessary. It can be even a bit imbalanced so weaker player could use the stronger race. I can only remember Era of Magic was always a very good mod with alot of new factions,...
I just started to get into Battle for Wesnoth. I was wondering if someone could kindly direct me to where I can get pre-made themes. Or a place where I can educate myself on how to install themes. I really would like to customize the game and make it my own.
When I install the packages after downloading the game from the play store it launches normally. When I then exit the game it always asks me to reinstall the packages each time I launch the game. Does anyone know how to prevent this?
I have downloaded the legacy version and that works fine and...
Poll: What is your favorite mainline wesnoth soundtrack?
Votes so far, I will update this list periodically:
Into the Shadows: 2
Over the Northern Mountains: 1
Legends of the North: 1
Still another Wanderer: 1
Elvish Theme: 1
I have not been active here for a few months due to various issues unrelated to wesnoth,
in particular due to reallife. This will continue for some time. I started a campaign but it
is hugely beta-ish, vaporware right now. But, I have not abandoned it; I just had to
postpone it. I will finish the...
