The module file had been compressed using RAR compression not ZIP. FG will only work with ZIP compression modules.
I've re-compressed the file and uploaded to post #1. I've tested this file and it is visible in the Library etc..
Funny that there were 35 downloads of that original file and no one mentioned it didn't work!Private Messages: My inbox is forever filling up with PMs. Please don't send me PMs unless they are actually private/personal messages.

I know this was brought up before, but the issue with the calendar not working as Deff linked to above is not a function of the extension as written. In FG, there is a script, manager_calendar.lua, and in that script there is a lua function to handle the Zeller's congruence method of accounting for day of the week as years march forward.
When making any fantasy calendar, if one desires it to work similar to the Julian or Georgian calendar then they would need to implement it to follow the same system, i.e. 365 days, months having the same amount of days, etc. If you desire a different standard, you would have to modify the manager_calendar.lua file and add functions to do something similar to Zeller's congruence for your fantasy world's calendar.
Addressing Warhammer's Old World itself, I have never seen any mention that the days vs. dates of the year are not static. The individual who built that website, I think, made some assumptions using Zeller's congruence.
