C# Code

This code is to guarentee the name will match when trying to access The Sims 3 directory in Documents. Modify the byte arrays to other programming languages if needed. An example of how to use this code is simply Locales["en-US"]. The culture name (e.g. "en-US") can be found at 32-bit registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Sims\EXPANSION\Locale. Encoding is in the System.Text namespace.

       public static Dictionary<string, string> Locales = new Dictionary<string, string>()
