My point was, maybe as suggested in <!-- Make sure all numbers are filled, refer the amount of number on the ContentSwitch.lua file --> , what was causing the game to not load the texts of the tips, resulting in: <!-- Otherwise you may see something like TXT_KEY_VPUI_TIP_19 on the tip text --> this behaviour, was a missmatch with the number(s) specified in the LUA file, but for what I can see, that's not the case. Said file looks like this atm:
-- Table of Vox Populi tips
-- Update this when adding new tips
local tips_count = 33;
-- Localize stuff for performance reason
local L = Locale.ConvertTextKey;
local math_random = math.random;
local math_randomseed = math.randomseed;
local os_time = os.time;
local g_TipType = { "TIP"--, "QUOTE", "FUNFACT", "HISTORY" }
local g_ColorVPTip = { TIP = "[COLOR:198:136:50:255]"--, QUOTE = "[COLOR_MAGENTA]", FUNFACT = "[COLOR_YELLOW]", HISTORY = "[COLOR_CYAN]" };
function GetVPTip()
math_randomseed(os_time()); -- random initialize
math_random(); math_random(); math_random(); -- warming up
local iTipType = math_random(#g_TipType)
return g_TipType[iTipType]
end
function VPTipTitle()
return g_ColorVPTip[GetVPTip()] .. L('TXT_KEY_VPUI_TITLE_' .. GetVPTip()) .. '[ENDCOLOR]'
end
function VPTipText()
local iTipText = 0
if GetVPTip() == "TIP" then
iTipText = math_random(1, tips_count)
--[[
elseif GetVPTip() == "QUOTE" then
iTipText = math_random(1, 4)
elseif GetVPTip() == "FUNFACT" then
iTipText = math_random(1, 8)
elseif GetVPTip() == "HISTORY" then
iTipText = math_random(1, 16)
--]]
end
return g_ColorVPTip[GetVPTip()] .. L('TXT_KEY_VPUI_' .. GetVPTip() .. '_' .. iTipText) .. '[ENDCOLOR]'
end

I tried formatting it a bit here for the sake of space saving, can u see something off that could be the cause of it?
aaaaaaaahh, not checking EOF delimiters, after all these years...a classic. it shows now, thank you. Unfortunately it says i cant activate it because i'm missing required dependencies, which i'm pretty sure i'm not, as I wrote it myself and decided which, amongst those i have, are required/strongly recommended to have. I'll get to the bottom of it.
