This is a list of unofficial translations by people on the forum, and official ones by Ikisoft/Associates.
The list follows ISO 639-1 naming codes for
a)Standardisation
b)So non-english speakers can find them.
Many thanks to those who have taken their time to translate the game files, namely
-The Russian Board, The German Board, Escorpion, Agent 47, Akey, Fahrver, Nethros, Audun, Br the jub, MetalMario, Slawomir of Aaarrghh, Kaikallon, Pegasus and Lord Dankoo.
We currently have 8 full translations and 9 incomplete Translations
(Note: The first list only holds the langauges that have a sub-board, the second are langauges without a sub-board):

1 - Setting up[list type=decimal]
[*]Go into Mount&Blade, and wait for the main menu to show up.
[*]Start a new game or load one
[*]When you have control of your character, press ALT+ENTER
[*]Choose View/Create language template
[/list]You now have two batches of things to translate - the interface itself, and the module specific translation.
2 - Translating the User Interface[list type=decimal]
[*]Go into your Mount&Blade folder
[*]Open "Languages"
[*]Copy "en" and paste it
[*]Rename it as the ISO 639-1 naming code for your language. This means that there is less chance that you mispell the name somewhere meaning slight annoyance. Ikisoft uses these too.
[*]Open the files within with Notepad++ (see below)
[*]Go to Format>Encode in UTF-8 (this means you can have accented characters)
[*]Translate these.
[/list]
3 - Translating the Module[list type=decimal]
[*]Go into your Mount&Blade folder
[*]Look for "new_language" (It's a folder)
[*]Rename that as the same as the other language folder
[*]Open that
[*]Open the files within with Notepad++
[*]Go to Format>Encode in UTF-8
[*]Translate those
[*]Place the folder in the Native "Languages" folder
[/list]
4 - Finalising
1. Make a "Mount&Blade" folder. Place the "languages" folder in this.
2. Make a "Modules" folder in Mount&Blade.
3. Make a "Native" folder in this. Place the other "languages" folder in this.
Here is an example directory tree:
4. Make a .txt file in your language instructing to copy&paste the "Mount&Blade" folder over the existing folder.
5. Place these in your zip folder.
6. Upload and post it here.
