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.

Unpack mods (http://torchmodders.com/forums/modding-questions/some-modding-questions/msg3498/#msg3498) 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 ;)
