Can't Find my Custom Calendar Module

[Zetesofos]

So, I was looking to update my calendar I edited in Notepad++ and uploaded for my campaign. When I load Fantasy grounds, I can see it is still there for use during the game. However, when I went to the calendar.mod file under my roaming folder, extract it, and edit it....my calendar is not there??

Anyone have any ideas why I can't find it?

Much appreciating helpful.

Probably got overwritten on a recent update. If you make changes, you should rename the file.

Right...but the issue is I can't find the original .mod file that has my calendar? Should I plan on just rewriting it from scratch?

The calendar info from the module is loaded into FG once, so if you can still see the calendar data, but not your calendar module, then it will probably be because the edited file has been overwritten as part of an FG update - probably calendars.mod. For future reference - never name any custom FG files the same as base FG files.

So, if your original module file is overwritten, missing or you can't find it. You can probably get most of the info back from the campaign XML. Look at the <calendar> section of your campaign db.xml file. The <data> section is essentially the same info that was copied from the calendar module. So, you should be able to copy that out and create a new calendar module (not called calendars.mod).
