Determining the player's timezone

[kerb9729]

GetTimeStamp() seems to return the time in UTC.

Is there any way to determine the current system timezone without forcing the user to configure it?

I suppose I could calculate it by converting GetTimeString() to a unix timestamp somehow, but it seems like there should be a better way.

I have a simple addon that predicts what time an in-game time will occur in real time and displays it in the chat window. It gets game time from the "Tamriel Standard Time" addon. So I guess in reality it's an addon to an addon.

Currently I just hard code my timezone, but I thought I might clean it up and release it. Or give the code to "Tamriel Standard Time" guy so he can incorporate it into his addon if he wants.

It's pretty useful if you are trying to become a vamp or ww the hard way. It's nice to know what time you need to be online to check the spawns.
