Please help. I'm new to Deus Ex (big Thief fan) and I'm suprised how similar the interface feels. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knew were items from the inventory go after you pick them up. I know the lock pick and some other items only work for a few times (unlike Thief grrr) but I've had medic packs and other things disappear and never reach the inventory straight after picking them up.
Some help would be great!
That said I find the game challenging (I do a combination of stealth and explosives style gameplay), often fun and at times frustrating. This may end up being my second favourite game! The training mission is really enjoyable too!
Anyway thanks for reading this.

well,some items stack,so you wont be able to have multiple medkits in different slots for example.and you cant have two same weapons in the inventory at the same time,when you pick such weapon,it will dissapear and only the ammo will be added.does it cover your issues or is it something differet (like picking up the first medkit and it will not show up in the inventory at all)?

I'm quite familiar with your first point, but that's not the problem, your second point covers the problem I'm having. Thanks.

well,I cant help you much with that.try uninstalling the game,deleting the game folder,and installing again (and try starting a new game,dont use the old saves),and perhaps running in win9x compatibility mode.seems like deus ex is full of weird errors for some people..my copy runs flawless for example,I have a version 1.0 cd patched up to the latest+no cd ini tweak.as mentioned before,runs fine under D3D/opengl/glide (and glide is not even officially supported under xp)..
