You have full primary ammo, secondary ammo, grenades, hp, armour and already have akimbo.
Use the /getmap command.
By default, A.C. tell you that you aren't on the good map version and ask you to download the server's one or to disconnect by a menu, Don't push escape and download it.

Some servers can stuff up who's on different maps. Try typing /map ac_gothic in singleplayer and see if the pickups work there. As other said, /getmap or accepting to download the map when the menu pops up should fix any problems.

I ask people to send map if pickups dont work (/sendmap)
But since you can't send or receive official maps.
I D/C and then R/C again.
You just need to type /getmap since the server has the map.

It would be good for people to take notice of this. You
do not need to have someone /sendmap if the map was in the server's maprot. You shouldn't need to have a /sendmap at all on a decent server that has the -PX switch set. The map is already on the server; just /getmap to get it.
In my experience gothic, douze, iceroad, and arabian are the main problem maps where someone has a different version.

none of the above works. thats why im here asking for help. read my post again
so, /getmap doesnt now.
download map from server does not work. (with or without someone sending)
ac_gothic is default map but not secure so it can be sent

Does /clearsecuremaps work? We used that in .93 when we needed to send maps that were secured. It may have been changed though.

ac_gothic differs between 1.0.2 and 1.0.4
Try updating to
1.0.4

Completey uninstall AssaultCube. Destroy all traces in the My Documents folder. Reinstall. If it doesn't work, you're either a liar or imagining things.

What's the date/size of your ac_gothic.cgz and do you have more than one copy of it anywhere in your AC folder, like in the official folder?

Oh yes.. that program files/mydocs clash was a problem when editing.. possibly could have caused it

The .bak copies are backup copies, rename them to .cgz to use them. In retrospect perhaps you should've restored the earliest version of the map :|

That's probably the 1.0.2 version. 1.0.2 is 10,718 bytes (shows as 10.4 kB in Windows), 1.0.4 is 10,568 bytes (10.3 kB).
Try downloading
this to packages/maps (
not official) and see if it makes a difference.
