Yeah there really aren't any tutorials as far as I know, just because most people haven't really needed to translate theirs. All you would really need is Cave editor, so you could edit what everything said, and some sort of translation program. You might wanna know TSC a little so that you know what you are editing.

Anyway, I think the intended answer would be Basic TSC Skills + CaveEditor needed to translate the game to a different language.
(Insert what bobbyis said before)
In order to translate the game to a different language, you should download CaveEditor.

Use one of the older versions (probably not 0.99c) for maximum stability. Use the program to edit the scripts in each map, which are called TSC files.
Most TSC files have dialogue in them, so just replace the English dialogue with the new language's dialogue and you're done.
So anyway, what language do you plan to translate it to?

To Polish.
Someone's attempting to do that already:

But I don't think he's done yet. So you can try too.

Yea, I'd like to. However I don't know what will come out of it. Maybe I won't feel like translating it any more some day, heh 
EDIT:
Is there possibility to change size of messagebox, or do I have to fit text to it?

It could be done, but it would be kinda hard and quite impractical for this purpose.
You should just fit text into the messagebox and put line breaks every so often - you can make the message as long as you want, just not as wide as you want.

Ok. And is there possibility to see how dialogs will look like after translation without running a game? Sometimes I would need to play for a while to be able to see some dialogs. It's quite impractical.
