Excel is one. Done with that. Alright then.

Does anyone know of a calendar generator that isn't broken? I tried using this (http://www.eightcharacters.com.au/calendar/), but it's dead (temporarily, at least). :smallfrown:

Otherwise, if no one knows of anything, I stink with Excel, so if you could give me examples of what to do with that, that would be great. :smallamused:

There's a WotC produced calendar for Eberron campaigns. (file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/ssr/My%20Documents/Downloads/Eberron/Eberron%20Calendar/index.htm)

I see. I'll go in search for it on their site. :smallsmile:

You shouldn't link a document on you're computer, we don't have access.

Strange, I never noticed that. Oh well, shouldn't be too hard to find.

You could always work with a historically accurate calender other than the Julian one we use now. Some examples that may not require much searching include the Mayan, Hebrew, and Oriental calenders.

You then just need to tweak certain features for the lunar and seasonal aspects you wish to include. Is a month 4 or 6 weeks in your fantasy world? How many months per season? Year?

There are nine months in a year, with the first eight lasting three to four weeks of six days each. The last month is ten days long.

Each month has a different climate completely, essentially. There will be fire pillars one day, followed by the rising of the dead the next (Yes, that's part of the weather.).

There are one hundred eighty days in the year.

Hey... my bad!

That is my website, and I wasnt aware that it was down.

I have fixed the problem and the site is working again now - here it is (http://www.eightcharacters.com.au/calendar/)!

Also, just to let you know, I have been working on extending the functionality to allow you to scroll back and forwards between months and save information on specific days or on a recurring basis.

Hopefully I will have it finished by the end of this long weekend, otherwise it will be the long weekend after...

Sweet. I'll test it now. :smallbiggrin:

Four seconds.

Great. It works. :smallsmile: Thanks. I just have to edit in holidays now. :smallamused:
