In case somebody else is in the same situation: The exact problem was that I accidentally used the same names for other related variables so my launchfile was colliding with my configuration. For example I had put:

<param name="cur_tilt_angle" value="/cur_tilt_angle,std_msgs/Float64,publishedTopic" />

and in the configuration:

gen.add("cur_tilt_angle", double_t, 2, "Current real tilt of the camera", 0.0, -65.0, 65.0)

The problem was as silly as expected; I just forgot that both sets of variables go to the same parameter server so I didn't even check the names until now.

Thank you for your answers!!
