    /translate question

    So you can add items like say "Incus Cell" or "Macha's Coat", but they dont stay saved? And every time you log on theyre gone?

    Yes, this applies to any items that you haven't seen since you logged in (those you can get by opening chat > TAB > Items > find the item) that you translate manually. They go away from your auto-translate after you log off or shut down unfortunately, and would need to be re-translated every time you log in

    There's also a hard limit of 200 items that may be translated at one time, as new ones are added old ones get knocked off the list. Also, this does not work for key items. I've additionally noticed it doesn't seem to work for certain specific items, such as Darksteel Codpiece.

    I guess you could make a windower macro that you execute with all those non standard items.

    translate.txt
    input /translate enjp "Incus Cell"
    input /translate enjp "Cumulus Cell"
    etc..

    //exec "translate.txt" <-- can put that into init.txt too

    /p Incus[tab] blabla *profit*

    You are probably typing those wrong.
    /translate takes the abridged inventory names, not the expanded real names.
    So "Somewhere Something Key" (real name) would need to be typed as "So. So. Key" (inventory name).

    BGWiki is pretty handy for pulling up those abridged names, by the way.
