View Full Version : Dar al-Islam
Crayton Feb 19, 2006, 02:04 PM This mod component is a take on the Common Era Mod. It replaces the traditional BC/AD Calender with the one used by Muslims. The timeline goes from 3000 years before the Hijra, DK (Dar al-Kufr), to 1450 years after the Hijra, AH.
Enjoy and post your comments, suggestions, questions, and accolades here.
Magma Feb 19, 2006, 02:22 PM Usefull if you should make an Arabian mod, could add some flavour.
Sharule Feb 20, 2006, 04:14 AM Good Job, I was just getting around to doing this, but you beat me to it.
Excellent job.
BenGee171 Mar 05, 2006, 04:47 AM nice i like it :)
Fachy Mar 09, 2006, 01:45 PM Nice work.. does anybody here knows that the Arabs used any "significant event" to record their calendar? The last one used before ultimately switching into the Hijri years was "The year of the elephant" where an Etheopian king tried to destroy the Ka'ba (where Moslems perform pillgrimage now - it was built by propeht Ibruheem) using elephants! But his army was demolished by mysterious flocks of birds stoning them. Prophet Mohammad was born on that year, and the Hijri calendar began 53 years later..
Ahem, why am I saying all that?? o.o
AndyTerry Mar 10, 2006, 06:33 AM Hmm, I will defenitely use it if make an Asian or Arabian Mod (I consider it :) )
johny smith Oct 12, 2007, 02:04 PM This is cool. Anybody know any other calendars made for other religions?
Fanatic Demon Oct 12, 2007, 02:32 PM Yes, would be great creating a mod which allow you pasify the world with Muslim peace :rolleyes:
You would start at Muhammed as a rober baron which raded trade cavans and making himeself a fortune, allowing him to capture Mekka ;)
johny smith Oct 12, 2007, 02:38 PM I was thinking more along the lines. When you convert to Islam this is your calendar, but this will take some work to make it that way.
HG_CassiusA Oct 16, 2007, 03:15 PM Cool...now all we need is Ab urbe condita (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ab_urbe_condita) :)
johny smith Oct 19, 2007, 09:25 AM As many as possible is good in my opinion. Now the small problem how to make it change in game is. I will fix time machine first. It will probably be easier.

This is quite offensive and uncalled for.

Just say something in return about the Dutch shady colonial practices in Indonesia. ;)

I think the last thing we need is to fan the flames of racial hatred our Dutch friend has so kindly kindled here!
On a more on topic point - I wonder if it would be possible to tie the calender used into the player civilization (or possibly player religion) using python?

Then you shouldn't have quoted a post from October 2007 in the first place. ;)
