    Done! And I put a note to counter the 1 star "review" below mine.

    Is your device otherwise stable? Jailbroken? Etc.?

    Maybe it's a 2nd gen issue?

    Only played a little, but seems to be working well on my 3rd gen Touch.

    I didn't play it first... I resetted it first and it's still not working.

    Edit: Not jailbroken.

    hmmm haven't touched this for a while until today after update.

    Still really 'slow' on the iphone 3g... Every action has a second or 2 delay compared to the super fast pc version =/

    Sure I'm gonna pick up iphone 4 in a few weeks, but having this work nicely on my iphone 3g would be awesome =)

    Can you be more specific? What mission are you playing, when does it crash, what happens, etc?

    Also, when you updated, did it take a few minutes or was it really quick? And did you use iTunes to update or directly on the device with wifi? I have seen iTunes not properly update games before, but it is just asking for trouble if you do it directly on the device...

    Well, it crashes when i try to open the game. This happened even before the update. I downloaded it straight from the device. I didn't pay attention to the dl time.

    Then it is definitely a problem with the install, not the game.

    1. Sync your device with iTunes, this will back up your saved games
    2. Delete Wesnoth from your device, but keep it in iTunes. Make sure you have at least 400mb free on your device.
    3. Go to iTunes on your PC/Mac, update Wesnoth
    4. Sync your device

    "The iPhone version of Battle for Wesnoth update has a huge bug, Sometimes when you select or a unit attacks the screen freezes up to 30 sec"

    Is anyone else having this problem?

    I updated and played for about 30 minutes (from my savegames)...unlocked 2 achievements....

    Smooth as silk, if I have to say (3GS 32 Gb), didn't encounter anything similar to what you described.

    The only thing I didn't found was the rumored 'new terrain rendering'...what should I notice exactely?

    I am but it's inconsistent. That must have been the lag I noticed when trying the new TD content.

    I reset my device and played a little of Invasion from the Unknown Episode 1 (about 10 minutes) and didn't see anything.

    All my data was erased from upgrading to the OS4.0 beta 4 so I was planning on doing some heavy playing today so I'll PM you if I notice anything else

    Wait, what? Syncing with itunes will back up saved games? Is this unique to Wesnoth? As far as I know, deleting a game from your device deletes any saved files with it, and then syncing with itunes just puts the game back on, not the saved files.
    Or are you talking about doing a backup and restore? But then, that wouldn't be the same as doing a fresh reload and might not fix problems with the game.

    The scenario has a tutorial, have you tried that since you last asked this question?

    I just played a scenario on my iPod Touch 2G and had no problems, the game played great! Much more responsive now. :) Thanks for another great update to maybe my favorite game!

    I haven't noticed anything, but I haven't played the TD campaign yet. Everything runs really smooth on my 3gs. The unit information is great, and the mini-map is now really useful since you fixed the bugs.

    I've noticed a small increase in performance when scrolling around the main map. But it was already pretty good (3gs).

    Like the new icon! :)
