I just noticed that I misspelled the exec file. But spelling it right
didn't fix it. This is what the file looks like now:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8

Exec=/home/bmike1/Games/AssaultCube/1.1.0.4/assaultcube.sh
Name=My Application
Icon=/home/bmike1/Games/AssaultCube/1.1.0.4/aclogo.png
this is what the assault cube directory looks like:
