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...
Are you a wesnoth user who is experiencing extreme slowdown or extreme performance-related issues on your system? The more details you give the better.
1) Problem Details -
First, tell what is taking so long and how long it takes. The more precisely you can time it, the better. If you can find a...
Launch Wesnoth and choose the Version button on the title screen. From there, you can either choose the Open Log File option to view the current session's log in Notepad, or click on the folder icon next to the User Data box to launch Windows Explorer, and then browse to the logs subfolder. Wesnoth...

If you are running an appropriate operating system or Wesnoth build, then you can provide even more information in your bug report by including a backtrace of the game’s call stack, which can help us pinpoint the cause of the bug faster.
(Optional, but highly recommended) Build Wesnoth with...
Problem: I can’t figure out how to install/run wesnoth
Don’t panic!
You have probably downloaded the source code when you wanted the binary. Nevermind if you don’t know what those terms mean, just proceed to step 3.
Identify your Operating System (OS). A good bet would be Microsoft Windows,...
So, I have a folder on my home computer that, when substituted for the Wesnoth data folder, causes Wesnoth to always reload its data when it restarts (i.e. clear its cache).
I also have some dubious memories of happening an option for that and setting it some months ago.
Steam release of the game. 1.18.0 as of 2024-04-25. Windows 10.
Savegame attached. :eng: Can you reproduce it? :hmm:
I've completed a couple of campaigns, but deep into Delfador's Memoirs, the Prince of Wesnoth scenario freezes during the introduction. Always. No matter whether I end the...
I don't need support, but wanted to bring an odd behavior of the game to your attention. So far just 4 digits are allowed when creating a new terrain overlay. If a terrain overlay inside of an add-on has more the than 4 digits, e.g. ^GUS10, and you try to start the add-on the game will...
I played for some days BFW 1.18 and I noticed something not game breaking but somewhat annoying, when I'm about to move or attack an unit an unit, now and then the unit that I want to move appears at the target location before I even move it, like it suddenly appears near the mouse pointer, I find...
Not sure this is wesnoth's fault at all but maybe someone can help out. The latest flatpak download of 1.16.10 crashes when I switch screens using CTRL F1-4 (Linux btw). I did check the linux logs first time and it had some error about SDL. Probably a bug in the graphics software of Debian Buster...
Hello,
I play the game on steam, and therefore i got the update to version 1.18 automatically. Now I have problems because its like i got another version of the game and not just an update. It is possible for me to load the campaign i played in the old version, when switching to version 1.16 in the...
I have tried both the steam version and the flatpak version.
When trying to launch the steam version from the terminal i get the following error:
./wesnoth: error while loading shared libraries: libicui18n.so.67: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
If you move to exactly the right hex, and attack the quintain as instructed, it can move and attack back, and then it can move and attack again when you're on one of the villages. I never moved to that hex before, so I never triggered this. But it was reported on Steam so I tried it for myself, and...
Hello, some friends an I keep playing the game on steam (1.16). When we create games we cannot see Dunefolk as default option for race.
How can we get to play them too?
Thx, Celay,
The following add-on had errors and could not be loaded:
/Users/chrisrodriguez/Library/Containers/org.wesnoth.Wesnoth/Data/Library/Application Support/Wesnoth_1.16/data/add-ons/Comrades_in_Arms/_main.cfg
Please report this to the author or maintainer of this add-on.
Hi,
Just downloaded v1.17.26 for Windows and noticed that two logs are created when the game starts; a regular log file and an out.log files which always seems to be zero bytes long.
Apologies if this is a known issue/the correct behaviour.
Hi! Wanted to test MP in the newest versions, but when I build and open Wesnoth, I get 1.17.26+dev and when I enter the MP lobby, it's empty. As far as I remember, 1.17.* + dev and just 1.17.* from user sources have different MP lobbies. How do I build non +dev to get an actual lobby with players?
Today I just played my first multiplayer game. I minimized game for a few minutes. When I maximized it, it was just a black screen, and there was nothing except for a short line of pixels with alternating colors. I think those colors were red, green, and blue. The line was like 9-12 pixels long I...
With 1.16 coming soon I am wondering if when one runs flatpak update 1.16 will replace 1.14? So far each subversion of 1.14 has and also when you update Widelands (another game) from b21 to v 1.0 it is replaced.
Not sure what's going on so I thought I'd ask. I installed the 1.12.6 wesnothd debian package recently and have been trying out the hosting a 1.12 game as a server option a bit.
I just noticed that even after a fresh reboot wesnothd appears as a (small) TSR consuming CPU and 1.6 MB of RAM.
Hi everyone,
I was trying to upload the new version of my add-on (Loti_Era) and I cannot as I get a bad passphrase error.
I tried deleting it but get the same answer.
I recently changed my forum password, so I think it might be related. I unfortunately do not have my old password anymore.
I...
Afternoon, since about Monday 29th January, I'm unable to access the MP server from within Wesnoth. I'm getting a timeout issue. Trying to join the official server, it says 'Connecting to server...' with the logo and the little white dot running left to right. But it's timing out after about 1...
I'm migrating a part written campaign from 1.16.10 to 1.17.24 and have come across something I'd like to know if it's just me missing something or a genuine issue?
I spotted the behaviour when testing on v1.17 and can replicate part of the issue on v1.16.
However the weird thing is that I'm sure...
My friend have a problem with multiplayer game so I write here to help him.
While choosing an option Connect with official server he can not connect with server - he gets the communicate Connection Fail: certificate verify fail (SSL routines) .
The problem happens just after clicking...
Today I went to play Wesnoth (Windows, 1.17.24) via Steam, but it wouldn't start. I located the .exe and ran it, and was met with the following error message:
The code execution cannot proceed because libssp-0.dll was not found. Reinstalling the program may fix this problem.
Hi,
Edit: re-ran the autosaved turn and no problem with the display so probably some passing display malfunction on my PC :roll:
Just having an run-through of Delfador's Memoirs to see what had changed (if anything) and the screen garbled at one point (screen dump below).
