Wesnoth 1.5.3: Development Release

Posted 15 days ago

A new Development release is ready. This is the fourth release in the 1.5.x tree. A lot was changed since the start of the stable 1.4.x branch and since I am too lazy to list all the great changes in here, better have a look at the forum thread which ... [More] describes the most important changes. As with the last releases, we continue to offer two versions of changelogs: a rather nice to read players changelog that only includes changes every player will probably notice and the (rather) complete changelog with (almost) all the details, which is likely to cause a serious headache...
At the moment no binaries are ready. Once they are done you can find them at the download page. Please keep in mind that it is a development release which might include quite many bugs. If you find one, report it.
Update: The MacOSX binary is now available on the download page.-- Delivered by Feed43 service [Less]

Wesnoth 1.4.4: Maintenance Release

Posted 17 days ago

Wesnoth 1.4.4 has been released. This is a bugfix release for the stable 1.4.x branch. In this release several smaller bugs were fixed and many translations were updated. To celebrate the release and comment on it, have a look at this forum thread. ... [More] There are still two versions of changelogs: a rather nice to read players changelog that only includes changes every player will probably notice (only translation updates this time) and the (rather) complete changelog with (almost) all the details, which is not much more to read either...
At the moment the Debian, Gentoo, Mac OSX and OpenSolaris binaries are ready. Once the others are done you can find them at the download page. We hope there are no bugs left, but if you find any, report them.

Server crash

Posted 17 days ago

As you might have noticed we are currently enduring some problems with our main server. That is: about one week ago we had a major harddrive failure resulting in the system not working at all. So far we don't know exactly how much of the data on the ... [More] system is completely lost since we are working on restoring things. So far the multiplayer servers (stable and development) are back up again and the subdomain redirects like gettext.wesnoth.org are working again. What is not working so far are the forums and the wiki. The problem is that parts of the database seem to be broken. Currently cycholka is trying to fix and restore whatever is possible. Some stuff is completely lost like the screenshots folder we were using including the ancient screenshots. If anyone of you has a backup of those, feel free to contact us. We don't know how many of the forum attachments are broken but it is likely that some will not be restoreable.
We hope to have the wiki and forums usable again in some days but we don't know how long it will take. We will soon migrate the main server to a different machine anyway. This one will offer more network bandwidth and due to this make the website feel smooth again. We are not 100% sure if we will restore the wiki and forum completely before the move, so it might be that you are on the new server when the forum and wiki are up again...
I will try to post updates every now and then and please keep in mind that asking "when will the forum be up again" in our IRC chans won't speed things up at all. So please stay patient and play Wesnoth instead of using the forums. ;) If you are interested in some more info, have a look at the (unofficial) Wesnoth Journals.
Update: Okay, with the data provided by the Internet Archive it was possible to restore many images. The bad news is that basically all post 1.2 images seem to be lost. Have a look at this list of missing images to get an idea about what is missing. If you have the respective images, please contact us.-- Delivered by Feed43 service [Less]
