Is your timezone set to what you want?

Is it running on a hosted server or on your own local machine?

hosted server

That is why you are getting different results, the server is probably in a different timezone. If it's a VPS you're renting yourself, you can just change the timezone, if it's a game server you're renting, you'd need to manually add/remove hours every single time you use the getRealTime function.

I just looked at getRealTime(), there's a parameter called "local timezone", try to set it to true to see if that works for you: https://wiki.multitheftauto.com/wiki/GetRealTime
