Do you see localized UI for it, if not, make sure locales data is regenerated to include ru_RU.UTF-8. It's also should be listed in 'locale -a' output.
It's partially my fault that i didn't check whether my language really present. I've comitted bug report for them: https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=309608.
Now i really have RU in my locale list and LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 wine winecfg is localized for me.
That's a good start.
Installing of mentioned program now is OK, but running with prefix LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 i.e. LANG=ru_RU.UTF-8 wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files\ (x86)/ChessPlanet/ChessPlanet.exe
is still unsatis: half of interface is now russian (e.g. main menu, etc), other part is still ansi-non-translated format. Maybe they include other exe that not localized by wine while loading.
First of all try to cd in program directory, also try with 32-bit prefix.
So nothing so simple as somebody thinks there.
It never is.
