Hi,

Is there any easy way to modify existing other's bot (under their permission) to another language?

For instance, I see some good instagram automation bots here, but they are only for English speakers.

I am from different country so I wanna make a new language version of the bot and sell.

Will that be so hard?

Depends on the programming language. A compiled language like C# or VB. NET will be pretty difficult. Python, or web based programs may be easier.

If you can obtain the source code (since it's under their permission) it will be pretty easy.

If you have the source code, it should be pretty much a case of find and replace.

Look for the text being shown on the front end in english, replace that text in the other language.

Just make sure you're not replacing the actual code/variables etc. while doing the find/replace if you're doing it in bulk.

In what language is the bot written?

Compiled bots are hard to edit unless you have the sources...
IF you have the knowledge of that programming language by which the bot was build - then it would be easier else.. It is very very hard.

Depends but yes, by decompiling the bot to get its source code, editing this and recompiling... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decompiler
