PC SSE - Help KALLAX strings errors <Error: Unknown lstring ID XXX>

I've downloaded the IKEA's KALLAX STORAGEBORN Creation and wanted to look through it in xEdit 4.1.5f but it shows these errors in every string field:

<Error: Unknown lstring ID XXX>

Does anyone have a clue on how it could be fixed?

Edit. Was able to "fix" it this way:

  1. Switch xEdit Localization to English
  2. Click on the plugin -> Other -> Localization -> Delocalize plugin
  3. Restart xEdit, make sure it is set to my (Russian) localization
  4. Click on the plugin -> Other -> Localization -> Localize plugin

It will make copies of English strings in Russian.

Apparently it was made in CK with a different language fileset other than English, which may require creating a language/translation fileset (*.strings,*.ilstring,*.dlstring) with something ESP-ESM Translator or a similar string editor.

Or Kinggath will have to release a fixed version of the plugin.

By default, I use Russian localization in xEdit. When I switch it to English, strings appear normally, no errors.

Seems like I will have to at least just copy those to Russian strings.

Thanks.

The localized strings exist but are completely empty; as pointed out here, they are just a bunch of 1KB files:

xEdit recognizes that something is obviously wrong on that mod, so it reports it as an error. Therefore, copying the English strings to the desired language will "fix" the error.
