Floating pointers are probably your problem. They are values that don't have an offset, so they don't get put into the game.
ex.
...
message $talk
$speak 1 = ...
boxset 6
...
As you see, the offsets don't match, so they would be considered "floating pointers." To fix it, just name them both the same thing.
