Beta 6 … The adventure continues!

February 11th, 2010

It is download the latest version of wesnoth, I’m talking about the 1.7.13 beta 6.

It’ll take me a while to prepare it, check it and upload it on the server, but I imagine that within a few hours should be possible to download … work allows (yes, I work :) ).

The changelog is this and just go for the manual download on the repository.

Good game

UPDATE: the packages are made and monitored within an hour (according gftp) will be in the repo … wait sorry

1.7.12 aka beta5

January 21st, 2010

We should be there … Last … Maybe lol
With this release have adjusted many bugs that still plague this version, but the product seems mature for her fallen on the field.
I am not here to bother with the changelog, but know that it is a lot longer than the previous …
The packages were loaded on TuxFamily and corrected (after my mistake) while I have space issues on Launchpad, so there are only packages for karmic.
Good game XD

wesnoth-unstable 1.7.11 aka 1.8beta4

January 14th, 2010

After various adventures I managed to package and load this new version.
Now we’re running out and there’s high expectations for what will be the new stable version.
But let’s see what they have adjusted in this version:

* Language and i18n:
* Updated translations: Chinese (Simplified), Estonian, French, Latvian,
Lithuanian, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Serbian, Slovak, Spanish
* Manual: updated CSS style to cover Docbook markup for GUI elements
* User interface:
* Add a new repeating button widget
* Scrollbar buttons now keep scrolling when kept pressed down
* Optimized the speed of the –new-widgets game load dialog
* Waypoints of multi-turns moves are now saved between reload
* WML Engine:
* Rework of semantics of [unit] tags. Added ‘placement’ attribute.
Fix bugs #14373, #14444, #14451 and other ‘duplicated unit’ issues in LoW
* Miscellaneous and bugfixes:
* Scrollbar containers now use the button super class
* Allow a gui2 timer delete itself in its callback
* Fix various bugs when a unit has more MP than its maximum
* Fix not redrawing a grid when set to hidden
* Add helper functions to show/hide rows in a listbox

Definitely a few things from those who are the normal changelog for version devel and this gives me hope that we really reached the end of this release.
I remind you that he had the repository download.tuxfamily.org / itwesnoth / debian (ubuntu: karmic and lucid) (Debian sqeeze and sid) the upgrade will be enough, but if you only want to download packages just go here.
The repository on Launchpad is still being tested and then in the background. However we are also taking care to upload them.

unstable 1.7.7

November 2nd, 2009

here is now a few days the new version of wesnoth devel. Sorry for the delay but I had to find a solution to a problem of compilation.

IMPORTANT: For reasons of dependency (this version onwards) you can install it on debian (squezze and Sid) and Ubuntu (karmic and lynxes).

We are considering eliminating the stable release to upload a version suitable for unstable lenny. If you have any suggestions let in to this mail.

I only wish you a good game.

Since this version, I decided to lean to compiled packages for Debian, so as to reduce errors.

Not assure you that in the future continue to package, but before I leave I will understand if you can add this change also on the official repositories and will warn you.

Given the change in the packages must remove the old version with:
 # apt-get remove wesnoth-unstable
and install the new one.

I end by reminding you that you can download packages from here.
