A more stable OpenAI translator!

Howdy fellow translators,

I've got some super exciting news to share with you all about the OpenAI translation feature that I've been working on.

But fear not, my friends, because I've made some awesome progress!

Here's the deal: Generally, I can just dump a ton of text in one go to the translator...

Translator++ has successfully reached a new milestone this month in the development of the OpenAI add-on. Since OpenAI launched ChatGPT last November, many have anticipated the possibility of using this generative AI model as a translation assistant or automatic translation machine.

Translator++ Ver. 5.2.28 - Built in Japanese dictionary

Without a doubt, the holy scripture of all translators was the dictionary, some of you may open multiple windows or browsers to search for meaning behind unfamiliar words. 

Translating fictional works can be a challenge for translators due to the non standard terms mixed with some "chuunibyou" words. Conventional machine translation may not provide an accurate translation because the a...

Unified language code

Language code is a string that is sent to the translator endpoint that describes one language.

For example:

ja for Japanese,

en for English,

...and so on.

Back then when Translator++ only supported a handful of translator endpoints, I thought it was safe to use the language code of each translator. At that time there was rarely any problem with this. Because most of the translators stick to the I...

Good news: Patreon's new billing system will benefit you!

Today I received information from Patreon that they implemented a new billing system. I immediately switched to the new billing system. 

This is how this new billing system will benefit you all :

Previously, the billing cycle on Patreon was fixed at the beginning of the month. This means, if you become a patron at the end of the month you only be able to get benefits for the remaining days of that month… that was hardly fair! To be honest I wasn’t expecting that kind of b...

The last few months I've been busy with my full time job. That's because I have to change my working terms from part time to full time to be able to stay in this country. It is not easy to live in a foreign country as an expatriate.

Be the first to try the new Sugoi Japanese Translator server

Hello fellow translator,

Here is the prototype of the new Sugoi Japanese Translator server.

I have tested the new Sugoi Translator Server extensively. And the results are very satisfying.

CPU processing can be boosted up to 4 times compared to the previous version.

GPU processing can be boosted up to ... I don't know... perhaps tenfold compared to the previous version? It was crazy fast!!

CRC Mismatch problem has been fixed!

I've found the problem and fixed it.

This problem specifically occurs in Translator++ Version 3.11.18.

The problem has been fixed and a hot-fix has been created. This hot-fix will fix the problem automatically when Translator++ is opened. So please reopen your Translator++ and perform auto-update like normal.

Once again, sorry for the inconvenience.

Update failed because of a CRC integrity check mismatch.

I received a lot of reports that users can not auto-update Translator++ because the CRC integrity check always fails.

I apologize about this matter.

I'm currently investigating the problem. I'll get back to you soon after I fix the problem.

Thank you.
