Default Changing the order of names
Hi everyone,

As some of you might know, when playing The Sims 4 in different languages, the order of Sim names is displayed differently. For example, in Korean, the last name comes first and the first name comes last, which makes sense given the culture.

However, since many of the pre-made Sims have Western names, even when using the Korean language setting, I would prefer the names to appear in the English order (first name first, last name last).

I've been searching for the relevant Python file that controls this setting but haven't had any luck so far. Based on the string table, it seems like the name order is controlled by something like {0.SimName}, which in English appears to be {SimFirstName} {SimLastName}, while it's reversed in Korean.

Does anyone know which Python file defines this name order or how to modify it?

Thanks in advance!

It's not defined in the Python, it's hardcoded into the game's executable. Same as the annoying time format.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off.
