For what I can see in your lang file, you dont have it set up to show anything.

here is a few steps/things you can try.

1. To make a door show where it leads to. If you click on a door and goes to its entity tab there is something called TextEntry, write something in there ex. Door1. Then go you lang file and add this

<CATEGORY Name="Levels">
<Entry Name="Door1">Hallway</Entry>
</CATEGORY>

Now the door will show that it leads to the hallways

2. To get a door to tell you that it is locked. At the bottom of the doors entity tab there is something called LockedTextCat and LockedTextEntry. they are used to show a message when you click on a locked door, ex.

Write LockedDoors in LockedTextCat and Door1 in LockedTextEntry. Then go to you lang file and add this

<CATEGORY Name="LockedDoors">
<Entry Name="Door1">Locked</Entry>
</CATEGORY>

Now the door will tell you that it is locked when you click on it

NOTES:

Click on a note and go to its entity tab and at bottom you see something called NoteText.

ex. write Note1 in the NoteText box and then go to your lang file and add this

<CATEGORY Name="Journal">
<Entry Name="Note_Note1_Name">Name of the when the player reads the note</Entry> ex Note From Creator
<Entry Name="Note_Note1_Text">What the note should say</Entry> ex Hope you enjoy my CS</Entry>
</CATEGORY>

Hope you can make use for this

If possible, just place it in your story, then go to one of their notes and JUST edit the text and name of the note. Try to see if that works.

• (1) Restore your language files
  Attached, I included my own language files.
  base_english.zip goes inside [game_dir]\config\. Unzip&replace there.
  english.zip goes inside [game_dir]\config\lang_main. Unzip&replace there.
  
  
  
• (2) Check your config
  Enter the game, go to options and set your language to English. (If it's not the language you want, put back yours later.)
  
  
• (3) Remove duplicates
  Some mods include their own version of the language files. To make the game ignore them you gotta remove their entry from your resources.cfg file (if it's there).
  OR delete/compress those mods' folders to hide their files from the game.
  
  
• (4) Check your files
  If your mod is a custom story you just need a simple extra_english.lang which extends the originals. There you may add your entries for your mod.
  
  But if your mod is a full conversion you gotta include an english.lang instead and work in there. All your stuff goes in there. You may wanna use a copy of the original english.lang and remove the content and leave the structure.
  You may also need a base_english.lang I think (you'll know if you need it.)
  
  These three files should replace the originals, ergo if they have missing entries those won't appear in-game. Like the lantern hint. So just keep it in mind.
  
  
• (5)Check your map/script files.
  You may be working on a copy of your level and testing on another with similar name.
  Same with your script/language file. Make sure it's unique and the one you want.
  Check your text editor too, it may be loading another file.
