Hi guys, I’m trying to retrieve local and global time but by reading this thread I discovered that the maxscript function “localTime” is region dependent, so absolutely unreliable. The workaround seems to be to use “getFileCreateDate” on a dummy file created on purpose every time, but I’m not sure it could vary with different windows versions and date displaying settings.
Coming to the question, is there a way to get local and global time reliably and consistently? Maybe through dotNet?
Thank you.

use the getUniversalTime() function. found in the reference by typing “Local and Universal Time”
from the reference:
That’s a bit embarrassing, I’m used to search in the reference, even the most hidden bit of information, but this one slipped so badly. Thank you very much!
