Fantasy Grounds Custom Calendar Tutorial

[mattekure]

I was rereading one of the posts in this thread and thought wouldn't it be interesting if there was a mod/ext for generating weather with your calendar. Anyone know if such exists?

Thanks in advance,

ChipDancer

There is an extension for doing weather, but it doesnt currently tie into the calendar. Its the only weather generator I know of.

Wonderful guide!

thank to you i created my personal calendar.

Can i ask two things?

1) do you know if is possible to have a day outside the month and the weekday name? for now i created a period one day long, but i cannot free this day from the weekday name.

2) Fgu calendars can display season or can it create named group of month/period?

Sorry for my awful english

there is no way to have a day outside a month/weekday name, but you can create a month that is only 1 day long. There is no way to free it from the weekday name.

There is no mechanism to display season. You could implement them as holidays. Create a holiday that spans the length of the season. You might have to have a separate holiday definition for each month as they do not span months.

wow thank for the fast reply, it's not a bad idea the holiday for create the season, but i think that for now i'll modify the name of the month by adding the season, fortunately i created a simple calendar.

like always, mr mattekure, you are very kind and knowdgeable. thank a lot for sharing with us.

How do I fix the current month not displaying? It disappears when the month becomes current, I tried searching and looking into why it wont appear in the xml file and the forum thread, sorry if this is mentioned already.

Is that one that you created/modified? I have on I've made for HârnWorld and am not seeing that behavior. Maybe the current month font color is set to black??

[hazeyindahead]

Hi, yes I made this one myself and was wondering if I was missing a tag or property in the file. I also noticed that the holidays are blanked out.

I suppose the color could be an issue with the dark theme (using the Hearth) but is there a way I can fix it in the DB file for calendars?

[GunnarGreybeard]

I tried the Hearth theme and it did the same to my calendar. You'll probably need to edit the theme to use other colors. I'm not sure a separate extension would work unless it's not already something in the Hearth theme that could be edited.

Ok, thakn you for troubleshooting, its not an issue with the calendars plugin!
