@moriiSola the delta folder are usually the changes made by patches so it needs string files too. It might be that some strings are still missing if you copy the file over but at least it's a workaround for now. Interesting that you have one already.
@REDB1RD92 @xoGerardine could you try this as well ?
OMG it worked!!! GP12 folder in Delta had only one file, ResourceClient.cfg, so I just copied and pasted all things from GP12, including string and it's working! I hope it's gonna get patched tho, it's very annoying. Thank you so much for your help! x

@xoGerardinePerfect! Thanks for the help.
In my case it was Delta > G12 missing the string file so I copied that over from the other G12 and now all werewolf interaction text is back.Edit: For context the game played just fine last night until I repaired my game. Then this issue popped up.
- 4 years ago@SimplyJen This is exactly how I fixed mine, quick and easy, maybe check and see if your delta G12 folder is missing the string file before going thru the lengthy suggested methods.

I had Better Build Buy installed before this all happened and this was the cause of GP12 folder in Delta. https://www.patreon.com/posts/better-buildbuy-67868500 here is all explanation, hope that helps!

This post, right here!
The new update to the mod seems to have fixed it, and all the text has returned to their rightful places - christian_394 years agoSeasoned Adventurer
So to sum up (for anyone joining late to the party):
1) If you copied the strings to Delta/GP12 => delete them.2) Delete the Delta/GP12 folder. It was created by the mod. We don't need it yet. When an update is released it will come back again but with propert files
3) IMMEDIATELY update the BetterBuildBuy mod: https://www.patreon.com/posts/67868500. The full explanation is there!
If you are still being affected by the blank dialogs after this, the reason may be another mod.
I was having this issue and tested with a brand new save foler, brand new save, no mods, etc. Since the BBB files were still placed in Delta/GP12 the issue was not solved. I also had BBB updated to 2.6.1 (the latest until a couple of hours ago) so I never suspected it was the cause of the issue (when doing the tests with mods installed). I thought it was weird that folder existed to begin with since folders inside /Delta are created/updated when we receive updates.@crinrict The steps shared above should solve the issue for everyone with minimal impact to the game files and without having to repair the game (did it 3 times while testing xD)
