This sounds very good for a first attempt, good job We already have full music tracks for winning and losing, so I don't think we are in need in this area. I like the notification sounds though, they fit very well the game IMO! The Attack ones lack a bit the "emergency" feeling to be good attack notifications, but I totally imagine them for message notifications, or for game start... We already have some sounds for this kind of situations but we'd need a roadmap of the ones that are missing, or that could be improved. Do you think you could help us in this "organization" area, before tackling the actual production of sounds? As you say it's difficult, even for us, to see the big picture.

You can upload your work to the forums, or, if it's too heavy, use a file hosting service like dropbox, framadrop, etc. For sounds Soundcloud works as well.

Hello and welcome! Nice to see someone interested in the audio department. For music, you should ping @OmriLahav as mentioned above. For sound effects, you can contact @Pureon and myself. But in general the community will give you feedback, not only the core team. First of all, where in the game do you think the sound should go? The programming side of things will depend very much on that. That is also part of your creative liberty Finally, don't forget this as soon as you have some final product (or before):

Okay there was a misunderstanding originally, but just take a look at the discussion above: Justus continued complaining about having to, I quote, "waste time altering all [his] templates for this seemingly random change", after I explained he didn't have to. That makes absolutely no sense to me. Unless he just wanted to go wild, in which case leper helped him a lot indeed Seriously that's beyond me, this commit is such an insignificant commit to ragequit over

Yes I don't understand what happened here and why @wowgetoffyourcellphone reacted that way to this specific commit. I agree it's not always easy to follow our changes but this commit didn't change anything at all for the mod! There is no breakage and no need to update anything (unless you want to perform the exact same change to the mod files, in which case patching the mod using the diff from the commit should be enough in 99% of templates).

But that doesn't break downstream templates, right? The values are still the same and several layers of inheritance work perfectly. Even if I'm wrong, unfortunately this kind of change is important if we want a tidy codebase which we can work on. Sorry for the inconvenience (if any)...

I renamed this thread "Free Games and Offers" since it's looking like we're spreading the word about interesting offers rather than advertising a specific must-have free game

Hello and welcome to the community! Considering the very low level of effort put into the formatting of the application (Lion was being helpful but what he produced is probably not what you intended to do, so don't copy-paste him), I'd suggest you spend some time around first, in order to improve the way you interact with us on the forums. We are not currently looking for a new Video editor but we welcome contributions. Feel free to share your work on the forums, and don't forget to read this if you do so.

You want to ask @Pureon, who created the other one linked above.

I think the ugliness of the theme (the current one or the proposed one) is subjective and a bit irrelevant. The lack of contrast on the forums is a real problem because it can prevent people from participating at all. On the other hand I don't think we should care about people who think "oh this website is ugly I don't want to participate because it doesn't look modern". Those people are not motivated enough @daker Thanks for looking into updating the theme though. What we could maybe do is installing that theme without making it the default? That way it is available to the people who'd enjoy it. I can look into that when I upgrade Trac to the latest version, if that sounds good to you.

It is easy for administrators to change all the colors of every element of the forums theme. Unfortunately I am no Web designer and I have very little clue on visual accessibility matters. What I can offer is, if there is an element where you think a specific color would be better, post here with the HTML code of the color and I'll make the change right away. You can also PM me if you think you are going to spam the topic too much

That's not a big deal, just share the replays as you prefer (the really important rules are the ones about being nice to each other). I only gave the one-topic rule as a recommendation, in order to attract people. Personally I'd be more interested about opening a topic called "3v3 Arctic Summer - Trade Overwhelming" (because the map is cool, or I want to learn how to trade efficiently) than an uninformative "replay serie, mostly 3v3" (no offense). That may just be personal taste

If you want to take a look at the code, the components that are relevant for this are RangeManager and Fogging. The former handles the fog-of-war (FoW), line-of-sight and other kind of unit ranges unrelated to the FoW; the latter handles hiding changes to buildings in the FoW. It's a complex part of the code, that needs a good number of optimizations so it doesn't become a bottleneck. Maybe our implementation is not ideal for your mobile platform target. You say it looks bad so you might actually be wondering how we render it - that's not my area of expertise but we render a FoW texture on top of everything that is inside it. The code is here: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/browser/ps/trunk/source/graphics/LOSTexture.cpp

The Debian maintainer is currently working on it, and you should not have to wait for very long.

You can find the manually updated documentation for Alpha 22 here: https://svn.wildfiregames.com/entity-docs/ I'll try to make the "trunk" one work before you start using the development version

This should be good now: https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/games/0ad

The issue is it needs a compiled version of the game to generate it. I have a patch that I will be able to work on again now that the release is out. There will be documentation for the latest SVN and for the latest release once it's up.

Hola, por favor intenta hablar en inglés, en este foro hay personas de todas nacionalidades. What you are describing is not an error, it is a file path. Please tell us more. Please check that you have enough disk space on the C:\ disk (where the files are temporarily extracted) and not only on the drive where you are trying to install the game.

Here you can share your replays of games. There is no limitation regarding multiplayer, single player, with or without mods, but in case some piece configuration is funky, include it in the title. The title should contain the name of the map and the number of players at the very least. The top post should include the necessary files (commands and metadata) for starting the replay. It is not mandatory to spoil who won or anything else, do as you prefer. You can add a screenshot to attract people Important: Like everywhere else, but especially here, insults towards other people are not tolerated. This is only a game, even though it has a special place in our lives. Regarding reports of bad conduct: Lobby moderators should be contacted directly in case of misbehavior (disconnections, insults in the game chat, cheating,...) but here is not the place to post replays proving that.

Guess what I'm currently looking into that

Read: "How to open an app from a unidentified developer and exempt it from Gatekeeper" on that page: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202491 If you have to pay for your antivirus updates and you don't want to, uninstall completely your antivirus and enable Windows Defender, the one that is bundled in Windows 10. It is as efficient as other freemium antivirus and the updates come with the Windows ones. Also make sure you perform those updates regularly. The popups are not here for you to ignore them, securing your PC is important

Hello Ell! It's a real pleasure to see you are motivated by the audio side of things As feneur said, we don't have anybody in charge for real, but me and Pureon are indeed the ones you should ping in case you need something in the audio area. The topic Lion linked contains a few pointers to the things that need immediate attention, but the list there is not exhaustive at all. Don't hesitate to give your input about existing sounds if you think they could use some improvement. I think Stan gave you all the necessary information to get you started, but in case of need you can also join our IRC channel at #0ad-dev on QuakeNet. Welcome to the community! Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello and thanks for sharing this with us! You might miss your audience a bit on a historical RTS forum like ours, but we are always happy to hear from game developers. I'd like to advocate the open-source (or even libre) software cause Especially if you are doing it for fun, sharing your code and giving people read access to the skeleton of your project is going to help you a lot. It will give you motivation and you are likely to get feedback about how to improve things. You will learn a lot. I'm not deterring people from creating commercial closed-source games, because one needs to live, but if this is a personal hobby, I think giving your work an open-source license would benefit you tremendously in the long run. If you want to know more, don't hesitate to ask! Everyone here is at least remotely a FLOSS enthusiast. End of the parenthesis Welcome!

Welcome to the forums ray_ark Your project looks awesome and we are happy to have you here! Good luck with the game development, it's a tough work but it's very rewarding Regarding the licenses, you can use 0 A.D. art as long as you credit us and share it with the same license (CC BY-SA). The stuff you find on opengameart can have any license, usually there is no problem, just check carefully.

Don't worry, you are not going to wait a lot more. Unfortunately we are a bit understaffed because of the holidays, but we are working hard. By the way, I believe people on YouTube asking for the new release is good, they will be even more excited when it gets out (as long as the hype doesn't die down).
