  The French translation already exists and can be unpacked to reference how it works.

  Technically, it's easy to make, but in practice it is difficult.
  Each mod contains new strings <Translate> and is necessary to find/collect these strings and translate.
  We(Abramoff and I) made a utility for this process.

• The French translation mod could use some editing.  There are some incorrect translations.

  Unpack mods using GUTS.
  
  Or I can do it if you don`t have editor. In any case, to create a translation mod you need GUTS.

  Hi Zodin! If the mod you will translate belongs to someone else, pls remember to get the permission of the mod's author
