Question / Help Text not displaying properly. (Still unsolved)

[ToxicBytes]

When I add a text scroll to a .txt file it loops the first three or so words and doesn't read the entire file. It's extremely frustrating as I see other people use it just fine. I was wondering what I was doing wrong the only parameters I have on the source are a crop scroll and read from file. If anyone could give me any insight or needs any more information it would be much appreciated!
Thank you!

(Just sort of copying and pasting a response about text-related stuff)
1.) If you are rendering non-english or unicode characters, the font you use must have those characters (it must be a unicode font or a font of the target language)
2.) If you are using a text file with non-english or unicode characters, that file must be saved with UTF-8
3.) On windows, at some point I'm going to implement the old version of the text source in addition to this one, to make text easier to work with because I realize the limitations of the current one

Its all in English, so am I just screwed until the old text gets implemented?

You shouldn't be, Have you tried different fonts, checked to make 100% sure there's no unusual characters in the text file?

I've tried different fonts even the original, it's just a normal English sentence and it reads about three words then cuts the fourth in half and starts over again. There isn't an option to let the whole sentence run before it starts again so I think with the crop it thinks the sentence ends before it actually does so then it overlaps with it over again instead of waiting for it to go off of the screen.

Here is an album that actually shows the problem and the file it is reading from, just so there isn't any confusion.

I've also had a lot of problems with text scroll and non-english characters. Text disappearing when using custom font size, losing non-english characters (Swedish å,ä,ö) and also a weird bug where the entire scene blacked out cause of the text scource.

What I´ve found is that in OBS MP I could solve a lot of these problems by matching the font in both OBS and Notepad. In old OBS you didn´t have to but somehow this solved a lot of problems for me.

I tried that, it apparently even happens when I read from the text box with the default text. So I guess it's not that. :/ Thanks for the suggestion though!
