You're missing quite a few </Entry> tags here. Remember that every time you do <Entry Name=""> you NEED to have a </Entry> tag after it. You're missing 2 in the Inventory category and 1 in the Levels category. Add them after your text.

PHP Code: (Select All)
<CATEGORY Name="Inventory"> <Entry Name="ItemName_Corridorkey_1">Hall Key</Entry> <Entry Name="ItemDesc_Corridorkey_1">A Key to the Hall</Entry> </CATEGORY> <CATEGORY Name="Levels"> <Entry Name="LevelDoor1">To Hall</Entry> </CATEGORY>

The problem is in your .lang file, not anywhere else. Now that you changed the stuff according to Mudbill's suggestions, can you post your entire extra_english.lang file again?

Keep it in a spoiler, like this:
[.spoiler]
TEXT HERE
[./spoiler]

Just remove the dots.

Basically copy this:

Code: (Select All)

[spoiler]

Lang file text.

[/spoiler]

Copy everything in your extra_english.lang file and paste it between those two (where the Lang file text is). That will make it look like this:

Spoiler below!

Perhaps there was another error I overlooked, or maybe you didn't do it correctly. Either way, if you post it again, we can look at it as a whole.

Only moderators can edit other people's posts.

PHP Code: (Select All)

<CATEGORY Name=Locked door">
<Entry Name="LevelDoor1">Door Locked</Entry>
<Entry Name="LevelDoor2">Door to Janitor's Room</Entry>

</CATEGORY>

There's a missing quote in the name of the category. ALSO, don't use spaces in these names, so rename it "LockedDoor". That's the only error I see.

PHP Code: (Select All)

<CATEGORY Name="LockedDoor">
<Entry Name="LevelDoor1">Door Locked</Entry>
