I changed my registry entries back to Eng_US, but BV was still using the 24-hour clock; I was changing it in the gameplay menu every play session.  I added boolProp force12HrTime true to my userStartup.cheat file and the problem was fixed.

Don't do that. That's slapping a bandaid on the real problem, that your game is running the wrong locale. If you let it run like that, it will display the wrong names and corrupt your neighborhood saves.

And Pescado, no I have not seen the latest Ness-sighting.  Your site is doing everything way too slow to make loading pictures (or even most threads!) possible!

Well, check it out anyway. Death to all Nesses.

BastDawn:
Well then, please tell me what I'm doing wrong.   ???

Engrish_us.reg does nothing, manual editing in all sub-folders of the EA Games registry doesn't fix it... what do I do?  Please tell me whatever vital step I'm foolishly missing.   :(

In my experience, even with Bon Voyage, all I had to do was change the "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\EA GAMES\The Sims 2 Teen Style Stuff\1.0\Language" to 1, and I get US english and 12 hour clock no matter what the other settings say.


You're quite right, the whole point of 12-hour-clock reg fix is applying "Language"=dword:00000001 value. Other settings are merely cosmetic.

@BastDawn: Did you fix the value mentioned above? It's located under the 1.0 key.

BastDawn:
Thank you!  All fixed now.   :-*  Changed it, removed the cheat, and it's working fine.  Yay!

Ness:
The fix located in the second post has worked.  This was the correct thing to do, yes?
