    Hey Kyle battle for wesnoth is a great game until it started to crash everytime when it was done loading a aged game. Can you make a fix?

    Can you use the Sync Saves feature to upload the problematic save file to the server, then go to http://wesnothsync.com and download the file and email it to [email protected]

    Oh really? I wasn't sure about the new icon, because it's painted so it's less detailed and crisp than the last one....

    I like it because it's a black scheme. It's the icon I've liked most since the game came out. Yea it could be a little more detailed but the color's are very nice.

    Can you go in depth a little more? What is the server?

    When you load up Wesnoth from your iPhone there's a tab called "Sync Saves" Go there and create an account and password. Then you'll be able to upload the save file you're having trouble with. After you do that. Go to this website from your computer http://wesnothsync.com/index.php and enter your login information. You'll be able to download the Save File. Send this file to the support e-mail that Kyle has.

    Just to chime in: the current icon is the best one by far to me. Love the darkness and the palette! :D

    Agreed with the others, this is my favorite Wesnoth icon yet!

    Having returned to Wesnoth after a hiatus of some months, I have to say that the improvements are amazing! Loading times and performance are so much better. I particularly love the new map - planning everything is so much more convenient without constant scrolling. May I suggest depicting vacant villages on it too, in some neutral color? Taking villages is an important part of strategy too. Great work, Kyle!

    Now, what's this about Wesnoth 2? Not a SRPG with largely Wesnoth system? Ya, dreams, sweet dreams, I imagine...

    I second that...ever since the map was added Ive been constantly using it every turn to zip around the map more quickly when my units are more spread out (can be tricky with the small screen at times heh). Villages are rather tuff to make out tho.

    Im also loving that the mini menu was tweaked to no longer pop up on the side bar (a minor but occasionally annoying occurrence). The Unit Description box is also a welcome addition, if for nothing else than the terrain modifier info.
    Two suggestions to super-awesomize it are:
    1) Can the transition be smoothed out? ...it can feel a little jarring when the box is suddenly like *burrrp* "here I am" =p
    2) any chance the lil unit blurb can make it back in? Ive always loved reading the unit descriptions when I see a new unit, it really adds to the BfW lore.

    BfW continues to improve by leaps:)
    Thanks to The Kyle for the hard work! (and Im also strangely happy to see the price back up at $4.99 heh...it remains one of the best bargains on the AppStore and that value proposition keeps on widening)

    I need help with a scenario i'd Descend into the darkness. Highlight to view (spoiler)



    I'm in the part where the sorcer has the book and I'm trying to get it from him . I'm having a very hard time even getting to the book I keep dying. I'm at the easiest difficulty. Do I need tiger the book and bring it back or just reah the book. Either way I'm having a hard time even reaching the book. Help anyone ?

    I remember that I had a really hard time with that one as well... I forget if I did manage to finish it, or if I gave up and moved on to another campaign heheh

    The official Wesnoth Wiki has info on all the mainline campaigns, with links to walkthroughs and discussion threads on their forums.
