Translation to 52 languages
You can select which translations are active - simply check/uncheck each of available languages in options panel
Translation URL's tracking - if page is translated then links are changed to keep translation (it is smart – it will not change links going outside your forum, or links to images)
Translation tracking is working even when redirection by some mod occures (configurable reaction time)

Long texts are translated no matter how big those are
Not translated save areas - if you need something to be not translated simply edit appropriate template and put it between
<!--START vBET NOT TRANSLATED AREA--> and
<!--END vBET NOT TRANSLATED AREA--> (note: you cannot use any mod which removes comments to use this functionality)
