I don't have that bug either. My StatusEffectGroupInfo has 2103 entries.
Anyway, when trying to get the client to load modded scripts:
Removing the HFS gives the same error regardless of if there's a scripts folder with the files in it or not.
I checked the number of files in the HFS to see if there are any "hidden" ones (via visible headers) and there don't seem to be any hidden files.
I tried copying some very old Vindictus files into the scripts folder (some were missing), but same result.
It seems like it's not reading the scripts folder even if it can't find the HFS.
Modifying the HFS gives a different error. I think both say "Access Violation".
Conclusion: there must be some extra protection in the bin folder that tells the game not to read scripts folder even if the scripts.hfs is missing. Either that, or it won't read certain file types. Haven't done enough testing to confirm.
Edit: Used Gvy's StatusEffectGroupInfo and Vella's Pride buffs etc definitely work now. Thanks.

I'm working now to try to make delia from character creation. Take a look at the db3 file and change value in S3 CharacterCreation to 1. Maybe its still in development but its funny ^^
I just noticed my chat window is broken. Don't know when it happened.
Edit: Fixed it.
I had to override the Scaleform HFS. Will upload the fix in a little while.

I said in the previous page I already got modded files to load outside of GSL.
But it still won't read from the scripts folder.
Here's my current EN-US client and server database. I'm using En-US version 2016-07-08.
Vella revamp works in it. It also includes a fix for the En-US GUI so you can chat in it again.
Note: Sylas currently doesn't work (I haven't tried to get him working again yet).

Extra steps: delete/rename/move uptodateinfo.dat, and use Gvy's Bin folder I linked to in my 1.65 EU tutorial (everything seems to work properly in that one).
To get the GUI fix to work: delete/move/rename 9FB527B373DCBD159552ADD1710487A724237AF9.hfs then put Scaleform in the Vindictus root folder.
Here's a bonus test mod that increases the limit for female hips/butt scaling:

Pass is rz
It raises the maximum values for the female characters and increases Vella's default bodyshape hips/butt.
You can increase the butt/hips by using my proportion modification tutorial to add Vella proportion to other female characters (eg. add 3, 103 and value 1000 under Costume table)
Edit:
I have a theory that the client will not load an outside folder if there are any HFS that refer to that folder.
It might be ignoring the scripts folder because base_hl2 has a scripts folder in it.
I tried unpacking the contents of base_hl2 and running without base_hl2, but it just crashes.
Edit2:
I figured out a way to change the font. I've posted a tutorial here.

Again, the Vella revamp is still bugged in the same manner, and now all buff icons and text is gone
If you want I can record gameplay on both official and non-official and put side to side so you get an idea of the differences (they are still quite some)
Also, while now the chat does seem to work better in regards to having by default 1 tab already (which previously was just plain empty), the text is resizing and stretching very weirdly, I guess it's best to just keep the old chat
EDIT: Most of the other buffs stopped working now, like slashing high, ww paw, etc. Also shield deflection buff on Fiona doesn't proc, it's always there and no smash can use it
EDIT2: I'll probably just try and use 1.65, maybe its more compatible with the server, despite not having Vella revamp

Weird. It says Vella Pride and I get a damage buff. If I take damage, it resets. If I keep using counters it goes up and damage increases. That's the revamp, isn't it? I don't recall seeing that before I used Gvy's database.
I test by fighting the 2nd Polar Bear. Previously, if I used Vella's counter slash non-stop, it was never enough to kill the bear. Now I kill him way before then, thanks to the Vella Pride buff, so I know that's different.
Sure, show me a video. I saw Gvy's and couldn't really tell what was revamped, though.
My old chat didn't work at all. Nothing appeared in it, and I couldn't type anything in it.
Maybe we are not using the same version? Is this what you're seeing?
Edit: Fiona's Shield Deflection seems to trigger at strange times and it says 200 seconds to go on the icon, but the timer in the description says 30 seconds, so I've no idea what's going on with that. They added Deflection after I quit, so I don't know how it's supposed to work, either.
Edit2: Slashing High shows the icon and says Slashing High, but no effect? Doesn't seem like there's a noticeable change in speed, either. Gonna revert to the previous StatusGroupEffectInfo and see how things were.
Edit3: I see Blade Heart worked in the previous database, I just didn't see the description. With the previous database I'm not getting the spear error in the above image, either. Slashing High seems to work now too. Hmm.
I'm wondering if perhaps Vella's Revamp has extra stuff that needs to be transferred or added to the server database.

The thing about revamp is that they changed the Blade Heart effects (Blade Heart = Pride)
Blade Heart now should give a fixed speed bonus (not %). Before revamp it gave no speed (and you can test your version, no speed either). Also with revamp, Normal Attacks (LMB) should recover stamina if you have Blade heart (it didnt happen before revamp, also not working for us)
Another thing about the revamp is the Perfect Cross cut, it's a crosscut with a different animation, and yellow damage (higher damage). It should happen if you try to Cross cut while facing the boss (kinda like Hurk's dodge). But it's not happening.
However if you use the Active skill that makes your Blade Heart buff at max instantly (its one with a blue icon), during it's duration all cross cuts will be perfect no matter what, which is totally not how it works, it should just give you max blade heart for a bigger duration (higher than normal, i think around 30 to 40 seconds instead of the normal 20 seconds for stacking it with attacks) and nothing else.
Also there's a new skill, with an icon identical to the skill I said above, but in Green, it should be Active: Wind Rider, and it's supposed to remove the Blade Heart buff, and depending on how high it is, it should give you SP in return.
I'll take some time to get the recordings going as I can't do them right now, once I'll do them I'll show you side by side with official and nonofficial gameplay
Regarding the Shield Deflection buff, if you successfully deflect an attack with shield deflect, you will get a buff that lasts around 20/30 seconds or so. That buff gets consumed on your next Smash, buffing it's damage (and as result, making the smash damage in yellow). Nothing happens however, the buff stays on the bar forever until expired, and doesn't get consumed by the smashes
Also Slashing High was working properly on the old table, but it stopped working, as well as most other buffs (WW paw, etc), with this very last table
Thanks for the explanations. I'll try looking into it. You don't have to make a video if it's too much trouble.
Gvy previously posted a video showing Vella revamp, did everything look properly functionable in that video?
I copied some of the US databases over to the server and then tested the blue super. I'm getting a huge golden slash effect. I don't know if that was like that before because i never used that super before.
She flips after she completes the slash. That's the one, right?
I'll upload this version so you can mess around with it, if you'd like.
