Have you defined the "HL2_RPG" string (note the lack of the # !) in your
<modname>_english.txt file? Note that hl2_english.txt will NOT be loaded
by your mod by default (we may change this behavior). If you need it to
be loaded you can simply add this to your client.dll:
vgui::localize()->AddFile( vgui::filesystem(),
"Resource/hl2_%language%.txt" );
This will cause all of the hl2 strings to be loaded.
