So which version do you recommend? right now I installed the 5.3.31b from the Russians page, is that the good one or another? the version I found has all the addons and much more, but I do not know if it has a crack or something but if it is functional so far I have tried it although I am new I have not used very complex functions. and what is the function of the run translator?
If you use the normal executable to start Translator++ 4.9.28 you will get a "you are banned" popup and your profile will be deleted.
The bat prevents the executable from checking whether or not you are banned and just lets you start anyway.
Translator++ has it's problems in general, whenever Dreamsavior fixes something, he breaks something else. It really depends what you are trying to translate.
If you just want to translate RPGM games (not wolf, wolf never worked properly), then there's no real benefit to the newer versions, because basically all the new updates are about Dreamsavior's attempts at other engines. (And still failing at wolf, it still doesn't work properly in the latest version.)
It also depends if you are using custom scripts or not.
Currently custom scripts seem to be randomly broken in the public version. (5.3.31b, all versions with b at the end are the public ones.)
Sometimes they just refuse to execute even though the code is correct and works in other versions.
In case you have no clue what I mean with custom scripts, as an easy example, let's say you are using Red Sugoi, you batchtranslated to Initial, and you are tired of manually putting in the replace orders to get rid of the unk placeholders scattered everywhere.
You would instead select everything, right-click, run custom script, on row level, and then put in:
JavaScript:
if (!this.cells[1]) return;
this.cells[1] = this.cells[1].replaceAll("<unk>\"", "");
this.cells[1] = this.cells[1].replaceAll("<unk>", "");
this.cells[1] = this.cells[1].replaceAll("unk>", "");
(Obviously quite the overkill to use a script just for 3 replacers, but you get the idea.)
If that is something you do not use or care about, then there's not much reason to still use 4.9.28.
