Fixed the most. But I can still not make multiple notes to work. Any ideas how to get it to work?

Something I noticed is your "[br]"s, I not aware of this being necessary for new lines, or rather I personally haven't needed them, but that might clean up your code a bit.
Don't forget that this may be a case sensitive issue, so you might have something capitalized in your code that isn't in the extra_english file. My recommendation for an entry name: "Note_noteone_tex" -> "Notes_note01_txt", but then again writing "note" twice may be redundant.
best of luck
RE: extra_english.lang problem - SilentStriker - 06-07-2012
[br] is necessary for a new line if you don't want the text to be one long row of text.
RE: extra_english.lang problem - Larvidsson - 06-07-2012
Thanks a lot everybody!
I'm still having problems with the notes.
But it's probably just something with the level... maybe.
