Creating An In Game Clock

[Ace_Gamer]

is there any way to create a clock that appears in game that is in sync with the desktop clock on your computer? 

i want the clock to appear in 1 or two rooms only, NOT every room.

DateTime.Now:

Now property
(Formerly known as GetTime, which is now obsolete)

readonly static DateTime* DateTime.Now;

Gets the current system time. You could use this for timing a loop, or for effects like telling the player to go to bed, and so on.
A DateTime object is returned, which contains various properties that you can use.

Note that the DateTime object that you get will not be kept up to date with the current time; it will remain static with the time at which you called DateTime.Now.

Example:

DateTime *dt = DateTime.Now;
Display("The date is: %02d/%02d/%04d", dt.DayOfMonth, dt.Month, dt.Year);
Display("The time is: %02d:%02d:%02d", dt.Hour, dt.Minute, dt.Second);

will display the current date and time in 24-hour format

As for only having it in one or 2 rooms, it depends on how you want it to be displayed. Just turning the relevant GUI on only in those rooms should work.

EDIT:
A search for DateTime, GetTime, or just clock should turn up some other options.

i want the clock to appear on a clock tower or tv or characters watch etc...

As in, you want the clock face to show the time (like here, except newer functions make it even easier or here, if you prefer digital clocks) or just look at it, and it says "The time is ..." (as in the example code above)?

Again, try a forum search, and if you still can't find what you want, ask a more specific question.

Well if you don't mind the clock to be drawn just on the background, you can try using Raw Draw functions.

[Ace_Gamer]

the 'raw draw' file won't unzipp! something about an unknown compression method

What did you use to unzip it? works for me.

[Ashen]

Doesn't work for me either - using WinRar, and Explorer itself.
Can you re-upload?

Try this one . I unzip it with winrar and rezip it.
