Warning: Avoid third-party "cracked" language packs. They often contain malware or corrupt your AutoCAD installation. Always use official Autodesk sources.
Unlike newer versions, AutoCAD 2014 does not have a “Remove Language” button in the Control Panel by default.

Before diving into downloads and installations, it is crucial to understand what a language pack actually does—and what it does not do.
An AutoCAD 2014 Language Pack is a software module designed to change the display language of the software’s user interface. This includes:
Use the extracted .msi (not the self-extracting .exe): Warning: Avoid third-party "cracked" language packs
msiexec /i "AutoCAD_2014_Language_Pack_FRA.msi" /quiet /norestart
TRANSFORMS="1036.mst" # 1036 = French locale ID
Prerequisite: Base AutoCAD 2014 (English) must already be installed with the same update level (SP1, etc.). Language packs are version-locked – a pack built for plain 2014 will fail on 2014 SP1.
Cause: You are trying to install a 32-bit pack on 64-bit AutoCAD, or vice versa.
Solution: Verify your AutoCAD bit version. Type ABOUT in AutoCAD. Download the matching pack.

This paper provides a technical overview of the language pack system utilized in Autodesk AutoCAD 2014. Unlike monolithic installations of previous generations, AutoCAD 2014 introduced a more modular approach to localization. This document examines the structure of these language packs, the method of integration with the core English-language engine, and the administrative procedures required for deployment in multilingual environments. It serves as a guide for CAD managers and IT professionals seeking to optimize cross-regional workflows.
