I asked this exact same question literally yesterday with a title "Localization Files Issue", go check it out in the archives.
Simply put, it's a bug in the engine. I was reluctant to say so before but now that there's a second person I don't feel alone :) You can put the call to AddFile anywhere you want, really, as long as it gets called at least once before the weapon selection menu is drawn. I personally put it in the CHudWeaponSelection constructor, which seemed most appropriate at the time.
