IT-WESNOTH

Ho caricato nel repository l’ultima relase stabile di wesnoth, la 1.6.5 che presenta un changelog interessante per chi si era trovato bloccato ad un determinato livello

* Campaigns:
  * Legend of Wesmere:
     * Work around a possible crash at the end of scenario 7 (bug #14172)
  * Under the Burning Suns:
     * Fixed bug #13978: UtBS: "stun" ability doesn't modify enemy ZoC
 * Language and translations:
   * Updated translations: Chinese (Traditional), Czech, Dutch, Estonian, Finnish, French,
      German, Hungarian, Italian, Lithuanian, Polish, Russian, Serbian, Slovak
 * Music and sound effects:
   * Fixed bug #14239 (check_fogged ignored by sound sources)
 * User interface:
   * Removed the hotkey to enable/disable mouse scrolling
 * Miscellaneous and bugfixes:
   * Fix gcc 4.4 compilation errors (Debian bug #539546)
   * Fix ODR issues in gui2

Come al solito, ricordo a tutti che i pacchetti sono scaricabili da qui per chi non volesse aggiungere il repository, mentre per chi ha aggiunto il repo (oppure lo vuole aggiungere) basta aggiornare il sistema.

Anche quest’anno Dret sta preparando il fantastico torneo italiano di Wesnoth e come ogni anno tutti fremono per vedere come si andrà a finire… (per chi conosce già la cosa saprà anche chi è il probabile vincitore ).
Il torneo si svolgerà tra il 15 ed il 30 ottobre (circa) e quindi il tempo stringe, infatti si richiede l’aiuto di programmatori di WML.
Lo scenario è quasi pronto, ma tutti i consigli sono sempre ben accetti. Per qualunque cosa potete far riferimento a questo post nel forum.
Lo scorso anno il vincitore fu Luigit e potrete vedere il replay della finale grazie a questo file. Tutti i replay del torneo del 2008 sono diponibili in questa pagina, mentre quelli del 2007 sono qui.

È un evento di cui consiglio la visione, infatti potrete vedere all’opera dei veri campioni di strategia!

Eccovi alcuni estratti:

È uscita la nuova Wesnoth 1.6.4, che tappa un paio di bug e aggiunge delle traduzioni.

Come ogni cosa bella si è fatta attendere, ma finalmente eccola… la 1.6.3!

Il changelog:

Version 1.6.3:

* Campaigns:

* The Hammer of Thhursagan:

* Updated portraits for Ratheln, Angarthing.

* Language and i18n:

* Updated translations: British English, Chinese (Traditional), Czech,

Finnish, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Icelandic, Italian, Lithuanian,

Polish, Russian, Serbian, Slovak

* User interface:

* Fixed an multi-character UTF-8 handling bug in the password textbox

* Increase the lineheight in the new dialogs

* A click on a slider now properly sets the position

Come al solito vi ricordo che per chi ha il repo attivato basta aggiornare il sistema, mentre per gli altri è possibile il download a questa pagina.

Buon gioco!

DIR as the default map directory for the current session, and start with
the map load dialog open

in a limited scope)

* Enabled non-default fonts for Pango/Cairo (bug #13399)
* Improve the 1.6.1 framerate optimization about images fiting in a hex
(load and scan images only when needed)
* Improved performance a bit on maps with lots of units (e.g., NR-Showdown)
* Optimize AI recruiting, for mainline MP factions and add-on having
a lot of new unit types (e.g. eras)

Come sempre per chi ha il repository attivo gli basterà aggiornare, mentre per tutti gli altri è disponibile il download qui (mi raccomando di badare all’architettura).

Buon divertimento
