If you use the program that you can download at the bottom of this post you need to manually change the LCID in the generated xml aspx You can have multiple languages for the same state so that it works for different clients. 1033 is english, if your contacts have clients with different languages you need to find the corresponding language code. See list of locale ID ( LCID): msdn. NOTE : The LCID=”1033″ specify the language of the clients you want the custom presence to be displayed.
