I played some games with friends of mine in these days.
:-)
I never gave up playing it, I humbly think just one Ageless should exist, because having 2 huge eras to update is a bit annoying.

I agree with Reno.
I have difficulty to find some people online playing the latest version (the one posted by Reno) so, if we want to spread this amazing Era, it has to be one and updated regularly, thus avoiding OSS from people joining a game without latest version.
Actually is not clear for all people which is the latest version, because they look for updates in Add ons' server and not in this forum.

I was playing the Ageless Era and I saw you aren't using the newer Aragwaith Strongbow sprite.
Maybe you could put it in.

Game crashes, after "Priam" gets an level up.
Also, "Priam" doesnt have a race. It should be a "Primeval" race.

Re: Ageless Era - Making other eras disappear on MP server!

Post by Tigertown84 »

I am running Wesnoth 1.6.5 on Windows XP and this is the 2nd time this has happened....after installing the Ageless Era, most of my other eras became no longer visible or selectable on the pulldown menu when setting up a MP game on the official server. Yet if exit out of the MP server and I go to my list of add ons the other eras such as War of Chaos, Era of Myths, etc. ARE THERE.

So I tried uninstalling the Ageless Era(which was supposedly successful), but then I was left with only two era options when trying to create a MP game on the official server....AgeofHeroes and Default.

As stated above, this happened before after loading the Ageless Era, and the only way from that point on I could get any of the MP mappacks, eras, or other add ons to show up in the MP server was to completely uninstall Wesnoth and reinstall it from scratch. This is very frustrating! It takes a long time to download add ons.

Even though I am a fan of many of the factions in this Era I won't be downloading it anymore if it makes my other eras 'disappear'. Anyone else seen this?

there can be compatibility issues between ageless and other eras.

Testing... Testing... 1... 2... 3...

I'm back!!!

I have been busy over the last few days adding new factions cleaning things up a bit and just playing around. Sometime in the next 48 hours I will update Ageless Era with a total of 5 new faction!!! I will have also changed the ids of all 5 of those factions and the Welkins. I will answer the thread post in a few hours.


The factions will consist of the following:
Spoiler:
EDIT: I will be adding the South-Seas factions and the Phantoms factions when they are completed. They will note be in the next update.

be sure to update your abilities file, special notes file and the era file with the new info from era of the future. otherwise a bunch of the Brungar will have broken abilities

please, stop trying to add factions until most or all existing factions are balanced! the celestials, the primeval, the yokai, the welkin and the high elves are all unbalanced to name a few off the top of my head. (the welkin are fixed in eof, they just need to be updated. You should probably make sure you have one of the most recent versions of the brungar, because i cleaned it up quite a bit recently)

also, era of magic recently had alot of changes done for balance purposes. you should probably update all the factions from that era.

The South-Seas and Phantom factions are still very much WIP. It might be best to hold off on including those, you'll have a better starting-off point when they are a little further along.

That's just my two cents.

I did. Brungar was the hardest of the five to add because I simple forgot I had to fix the abilities and special notes :(
In my next release there will be no issues between Ageless Era and OftF :D

Two cents noted and agreed with. I will remove the two until they are completed. What time do you think that will be?

Unless doofus-01 makes another awesome faction this is what I will be doing. I will add the MAGIC updates and release. After that I will start balancing for the most played and most imbalanced factions and work my way to the most balanced. Oh, and I did use the most current version. Unless another units or ability is added I should not need to update.

I am really sorry. I am not sure what could cause that. If Ageless Era is uninstalled then everything should be fixed because it does not/cannot alter the base code of the game what so ever. Sorry!!

It's difficult to know exactly, but soon. Let's say two weeks.
