I'm not sure if anyone is trying to do something complicated here, but I got my guiserver to work fine and it reads all of my files for a basic setup. I am on Windows XP OS on a lame computer. Ok, let me tell you where I put all of my files to make it work....
1) Place the guiserver folder in the very top Assault cube folder (C:\Program Files\AssaultCube_v1.1.0.4) Which includes the logs, mapshots and minimapicons inside.
2) Dump everything else in your bin_win32 folder (C:\Program Files\AssaultCube_v1.1.0.4\bin_win32)
Now in your bin_win32 folder, you see a file launcher entitled ac_guiserver.exe. I have not been able to get this to work directly so ignore it if you cant either. Go back to the very top folder in ac and create a normal server using the server_wizard. Make sure that you set this server up according to how you want the gui to work, ie: ports, players etc. Once you verify that the regular server works and registers properly, close it. Find the new server icon you just created, right click on it and then click edit. The very first thing you should see in the command list is bin_win32\ac_server.exe. You want to change this so it looks like bin_win32\ac_guiserver.exe. Then hit close and save. Guiserver should show up and you should be able to hit start and make it work.
Now for me the gui reads all of my files correctly, yet I cannot claim admin, but on another computer running windows 7, you can. In the case that you can't claim admin, while you or someone is playing in the server that you want to have admin, type this in the guiserver command line at the very bottom: /giveadmin cn (replace cn with the number of the player you want to have admin.
Well I hope I helped someone....
