Wesnoth Organizational Updates Permanent archive for updates on decisions or reports made by the Battle for Wesnoth Project Council and the Wesnoth, Inc. Board of Directors. Moderator:Forum Moderators
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...
Does all the text from Wesnoth come in txt files in the game tarball?
'Cause I was thinking about doing some Danish translations,
if I have the time for it...
Just started playing the game, congrats it's excellent.
I was playing v0.3.4, upgraded to 0.4 - and suddenly the first scenario got vastly easier. Pity, it was interesting to try to crack it with defensive tactics. Hold the fork in the trail, hang back recruiting as long as posible, shortcut via...
I just suffered an attack of itemitis ... a grave illness that causes compulsive item image creation
Not all this items are really suited to this game but I post them to inspection.
The gif linked are smaller (in pixel size) then the bmp used so just ask me for the graphics:
Caped Plate (not trully...
The cost for a recall is fixed in the game (20) and independant of the unit. That means that it's very advantageous for expensive units but not for cheap units (excepts those with XP).
I suggest a proportional cost to initial cost plus a value which depends on the XP/rank of the unit.
This started under Improving the AI , making a new branch here.
1) Should it be made so that leaders cannot heal at all during a level? If enemy units get to your leader, and inflict large amounts of damage on him before getting repelled, should you be able to just heal him, or should he have to...
Just some ideas:
- new character workman
- a workman can build walls, and change terrain nature.
- each change takes x turns and costs gold.
- for the change to be completed, it should have a workman present in the concerned tile at the end of each turn until completion.
- for each workman on...
Currently alpha blending for units shadow is implemnted .. the main problem is that units dont have the coded colours ... and there are a heap of images to change.
Can anybody help me with this...
It's simply....
Easy steps in the gimp.
The shadow of the unit should be R25G25B17 or #191911 .....
I have been playing Battle for Wesnoth and it looks promising.
But there are some questions/suggestions I have. I haven't studied the code, so excuse me if i'm wrong in some aspects.
On the one hand, I find the file hierarchy not good at all. In my opinion, it might be better if the config files...
Button set. It has been difficult for me, but finally I have done a new button style for Wesnoth. Right now, only tutorial-button.bmp and tutorial-button-pressed.bmp are available (you can test it using tutorial-button.bmp as tutorial-button-active.bmp too)....
I am considering implementing a feature that enables a player to gain access to a table that'd show the gold, villages, units, and income of each side.
This means that the player would get to see how much gold each enemy has. Do people think this is a good idea. The way I see it, there a pros and...
To reduce update time (and download time), it could be great to have separate packages for source or binary, for game data (scenarii and maps), graphics (artwork, menus, units), for sounds (music, sound effects), ...
When there is new release, start a new topic (should this only be applied to x.x releases or also x.x.x?. In later case x.x.x release information, bugs, after talk would go under topic x.x release ).
Can we have Changelog that lists the changes. Changelog should be cumulative. It should be...
The new forum theme is available for testing. Right now, I have only changed the colors.
To change your default theme, you must edit your profile, and then select Wesnoth (testing!) in the Board Style field.
What do you think about it?
Forum customization ...
Just change the folde, folder_new and folder_locked images with this:
Change the buttons for new topic, new post and post reply to be like the game buttons.
Get rid of the phpbb image and put the same as main webpage and change the colours to match..
Perhaps certain units could have a defend ability, whereby your unit goes into a state of complete defense, if attacked he has no ability to fightback, however the enemies attack is reduced to %30 or %40, depending on terrain.
I have been using Bitstream Vera in place of bluebold.ttf and I think it looks better. It is not a fantasy font but it the font is really nice and clean one.
Maybe screen borders could be decorated with little elvish writing ?
I have released a very basic map editor which allows you to design your own maps.
The editor is available at
This editor does not have a windows binary available at this time, and will probably require some effort to compile with VC++. I may make a windows binary available at a future time.
