can someone tell me why the springfield spawns with no ammo in CodUO. It does not happen to everyone.

They must have ran out of ammo, wait 30 min. for the next drop.

Any mods running?

yes awe 2.1 with added modern weapons. it seems the old weapons like kar and spring are doing it.

yes awe 2.1 with added modern weapons with x3 scope zoom. it seems to happen after a person spawns in after dieing with their gun in the 2 or 3 zoom mode.

How is the zoom accomplished? If you need to press "M",
I'd be looking closely at the weapon files, especially the alternate (zoomed) weapons.

you are right, the zoom is accomplished by pressing "M". What should I look for in the weapon file?

Download WFE (Weapons file editor)
Compare two stock alternates (ie Thompson & Thompson semi auto)
Compare clip sizes etc in particular.
Then compare the stock and alternates for the problematic weapons and make sure the clip sizes etc are done in a consistent manner.

Also check out this area of _loadout_gmi.gsc

GetGunAmmo(weapon)
{
	// if battle rank is on then call the battle rank function
	if ( isDefined(level.battlerank) && level.battlerank)
	{
		return maps\mp\gametypes\_rank_gmi::GetGunAmmo(weapon);
	}
	
	switch(weapon)
	{
		//American Weapons
		case "m1carbine_mp":
		case "m1903a3_mp":
			return 60;
		case "m1garand_mp":
			return 56;
		case "springfield_mp": 
			return 25;
		case "thompson_mp": 
		case "thompson_semi_mp": 
			return 120;

See how both the Thompson and its alternate are included? Make sure the problematic weapons are similarly included.

below is my loadout.gsi. as you see i have added the enfieldscoped, kar98k sniper, mosin nagant sniper and springfield sniper.
