Hi!
Can't undestand why LocalizedName field never return localized name.
I have "Use Display Name" ticked and added

"Display Name EN" and "Display Name EN" as Localization fields.

Do I have to do anything else?

Hi,

Actor.localizedName returns the localized version of the "Name" field. In other words, it will only look for "Name EN".

If you want to get the localized version of the Dispay Name field, I recommend using CharacterInfo.GetLocalizedDisplayNameInDatabase(actor.Name). This will try the following, in order (assuming the language is set to EN):

• Display Name EN
• Display Name
• Name EN
• Name

It will also process any [var=varName] and [lua(code)] markup tags in the name.

Also, make sure the current language is set to EN. (See How To Switch Languages)

It works.
thank you, always good support.

Glad to help!
