TF2 Text Issue

So, I encountered a strange glitch where most of the text in TF2 have strange names and whatnot, some text includes #TF_TRAINING and #MMENU_PLAYMULTIPLAYER. I do have alot of mods, but I already renamed them to below 11 characters each, and this started happening (again) after I downloaded menu music (which I deleted) and a map (but I have other modded maps so thats probably not the issue). So if someone can give me a fix (other than reinstalling TF2), I will be glad to hear.

EXTRA INFO: Both the map AND the menu music were not in VPK file formats, if that helps.

I'll just reinstall the game, I just backuped the mods, but I'll probably lose the Flying Guillotine, (sigh)

Do you have mods installed? Shorten their names up to something below 11 characters. If you have alot, well, just keep renaming them.

Alright, I found the problem and fixed it! My problem stayed even after reinstalling it, so I asked a friend, and they said I had too many mods, so they said to delete 5 mods I dont need or dont use, so I did just that, and the issue went away! Can a moderator close this discussion now? No? Okay, it will stay up.
