Post your threads in appropriate sub-forums. Then and only then I will read them.

bad side of the issue: my crystal ball doesn't tell me which language is used in your current DB nor it tells me which language you will prefer.
good side of the issue: the server never uses any of the 'name', 'description' or other text fields of the DB, so in one word: language does *not* matter for server point of view.

the (rel 0-1c) tool does that perfectly.
it's already documented.

Shinru posted them files some time ago. You can find it in Shaiya PServer Development sub-forum. See why it is important to leave it only for releases?

Here's the link, although Shinru didn't update the files try sending him a PM. Maybe he'll send you the older version.
