12 Hour Clock(1)Category: Technical SupportMarch-10-2015 3:32 PM PDT (8 years ago) Go to Blizzard forum post
I am so confused, I want the clock to show in game as a 12 hour clock (aka 3pm not 15:00) but i can't figure out how to do it

Im running windows 8.1, I am set to the americas on the battle.net region.
My clock in the corner of my screen shows 3:31pm (12 hour) but in game it always shows 24 hour

I set all my region settings to US but that didn't make any difference

How do I fix this?

doemondo ,

The only option provided for the in-game clock is enabling or disabling it. If you'd like to suggest a 24 hour clock be added, please do so in our general Discussion forum located here:

Cavar,

As I told doemondo, suggestions need to be made in our General Discussion forum. Technical Support can not modify the game in any way upon your request.

doemondo,

I had a quick chance this morning to check Diablo III's clock on my Windows 8.1 system at home. It's working fine. I needed to change my system clock to 5:30 pm instead of 5:30 am and when I did, the in-game clock showed 5:30 pm as expected, not 17:30.

All this means is it's not the game forcing a 24 hr clock on you, it's likely a Windows setting still.

doemondo,

I'm not using Windows 8.1 at work so I have no way to inspect the various places it may be set. I'll try to check tonight when I get home and let you know tomorrow when I get in.

** Update ** Ok, I just checked some options in Windows 7 and can reproduce what you're seeing I believe.

In your Control Panel, open the region and Language applet. Check what you have set for the Short time value. It should be h:mm:tt

A capital H denotes 24 hour time. For me at least, if I toggle that while the game is open, the time displayed in game changes format while the time on my desktop does not.

doemondo,

I'll check it tonight then when I get home where I use Win 8.1. It was pretty easy to reproduce in Win 7, I hoped that was all it was for you.

doemondo,

I wasn't able to reproduce your issue in Windows 8.1. No matter how I set the time to display, the game always matched the setting.
