I have uploaded an old Bagman map called Team Hell Blow (v2) that was made by Propane.
Team Hell Below, is basically, a Bagman partial remake of the old Quake 2 death match map Sudden Death. If you know the Sudden Death map (there are several death match versions in Kingpin) you will know there is a lot of lava in this map.
It's an old style Bagman map where you need to press a switch to get to the Teams' safes. There are two ways to get between each teams bases which are go up high or use the underground tunnel.
This map should be loads of fun, and fun to send your enemy to the lava or watch them fall in the lava while they try to raid.
I have now taken the map out of beta and released Team TNT 2017.
This is a large Bagman map and is an update to the original Team TNT map me and Hypov8 released in 2013. Hypov8 also helped with the update. The main change is that we made it a bit smaller and put the bases in a more open area. We also changed a lot of the weapon and item placement.
I have put a new pack together which includes all known custom player models, all custom skins for the models and all extras. It also includes all the extras for the thug and bitch models (backpack, hats, cigar, joint etc).
There are loads of custom models both male and female. You probably know some of the more popular ones such as Homer, Mr Burns and TheMask but there are heaps of others including some crazy looking ones :)
It took a while to find a few skins and extras we didn't have here but now we have a comprehensive pack which contains everything.
UGNDM KP is a largish death match map for Kingpin. It is a conversion of an unreleased Soldier of Fortune map.
It is a multi levelled map with the lower level being a sewer area. It uses mostly Kingpin standard textures with an emphasis on corrugated metal, has ample weapons and items and 16 player spawns.
It has been tested during two games and is now ready for release.
We host one custom skin for the flamethrower here at Kingpin Info. It is a gold flamethrower skin made by Micketh. The files are in a pak file (pak8).
You can downlaod the Gold Flamethrower skin from here.
The zip file is set up so you only have to extract the pak8 file to your Kingpin directory. This will place the pak8 file in your kingpin/main folder.
If you already have a pak8 file in your main folder then extract the new pak8 to a temporary folder somewhere and rename it to another number such as pak2, pak4 etc which you don't already have. Then copy it to your kingpin/main folder.
I have updated the zipfile for the female droid model to include all the custom skins for it. There are many custom skins for the model and for some reason the model also includes some Rayban sunglasses. She is a droid from Star Wars and the model was converted to Kingpin from Quake 2 many years ago.
You can download the female droid model from here.
One of my favourite death match maps from the old days, which you dont' see on the servers very often these days, is Fragcastle by KaptenSvea.
Fragcastle is a small to medium sized map that was released back in 2001. It uses mostly standard textures and has ample weapons but doesn't contain the grenade launcher or flamer.
You can downlaod Fragcastle (kapsvdm1.bsp) from here.
As we have been playing online again for a year now (first game back was Feb 14th 2016) I thought it was a good time to highlight the video from that gameday :)
You can also check out the videos from some of our other weekly Kingpin games here.
If you haven't dropped in for a game yet, or haven't played for a while, please come along and have some fun :)

When I was updating the Homer player model zipfile recenly I also updated the Homer sound pack. Before it was an installer.exe so I updated it to be a zipfile.
The custom Homer sounds (which replace some of the deafault thug sounds) are in a pak9 file.
Just extract/unzip the pak9 file to your Kingpin folder. This will place the pak9 file in your kingpin/main folder.
If you already have a pak9 file in your main folder then extract the new pak9 to a temporary folder somewhere and rename it to another number such as pak3, pak4 etc which you don't already have. Then copy it to your kingpin/main folder.
We have several replacement sound packs such as Serious Sam, South Park etc which you can check out here.

I recently checked the homer model zip file and found that the skin for the baseball bat that Homer holds instead of the pipe was not included. I also realised we had several different skin packs for the Homer model and two zipfiles of Homer's extras.
So what I have done is put all these files together in one homer model zip file and called it male_homer_complete.zip.
It includes all the Homer model files, all the skins for the model and all the extras (nacho hat, glass, cigar, beer hat and dummy [pacifier]).
You can download the complete Homer player model from here.

I have released a new Bagman Map called Team Tennis. We played a beta version at the Bagman game on Sunday and since then I have made a few small changes and now released the map.
This is a small Bagman map set in and around a tennis court. The court is in the centre of the map where the money drop is and there are three ways to get to the other teams base.
There are plenty of weapons and items, 12 player spawns for each team, and even a couple of custom tennis sounds.
The hooks are in pak3 files. Just extract/unzip the pak3 file to your Kingpin folder. This will place the pak3 file in your kingpin/hitmen folder.
The zipfiles include an autoexec.cfg and a binds.cfg for hitmen. You only need these if you don't already have these files in your hitmen folder. If you do need them just extract/unzip them to your kingpin folder and they will be placed in your kingpin/hitmen folder.
There is also a readme included in the zipfiles with more information on how to use the hook in game.
If you install one of these custom hooks and want to try it out then go to the Luschen Hookmatch Hitmen server (87.175.206.47:31511).

There are so many Bagman maps that have been released reecently why not come along and try them out :)
I just found an old death match map called Southside Harbour that was made by Stigma back in 2006. I have now uploaded it to our death match maps archive.
Southside Harbour (dm_sh.bsp) is a medium sized map made up of bits and pieces from some of the single player maps.
It's a typical Stigma style map that he was making around this time.
Cleo AKA {GA}Cleopatra has sent me a bunch of old Kingpin demos. Some are clan matches and some are just people playing, and testing out, some custom maps.
The ones I uploaded today are the demos of custom maps from back in 2002. These ones include people playing in these maps and also some of Cleo just checking them out. If you don't know many of the custom maps from back then this is a good way to check them out. There are also a couple of KPDM5 demos thrown in there as well.
Just extract/unzip these files to your Kingpin folder. The zip is setup so that they will extract to kingpin/main/demos.
To watch them you bring down the console and type:
map xxxxxxxx.dm2
for example
map 4room_sof.dm2
If the console doesn't retract just press space and esc and you should be ok.
You need the actual map being played to watch the demos. Most of the demos use the relevant map name, so I suggest trying to load the demo and if it says you don't have the map then you can download the relevant map from here.
Now that Cleo has sent in these demos I'm tasking here with trying to locate some of these nice people in the demos and get them playing Kingpin again :D

We host two custom pistol skins here at Kingpin Info and I have now updated the zipfiles and placed them into pak files. I have named the pak files pak2.
The two custom skins are the Castor Troy gold skin and the Nickel Silver skin. Both skins were made by Überdroog.
The zip files are set up so you only have to extract the pak2 file to your Kingpin directory. This will place the pak2 file in your kingpin/main folder.
If you already have a pak2 file in your main folder then extract the new pak2 to a temporary folder somewhere and rename it to another number such as pak3, pak4 etc which you don't already have. Then copy it to your kingpin/main folder.
Jonez has quickly followed up his Team Barns beta2 map with another Bagman map called Team Bloody Tracks.
This is a smallish Bagman map set in a trainyard. The map is small, full of concrete and brick, and will be frantic BM action.
Railroad tracks dissect the map in the centre where the money drop is. There are a few ways to get between the team's bases and there are plaenty of weapon and item caches.
I'm sure this one will be added to all the Bagman servers :)
Monkey Harris has released a new version of the Monkey Mod. The latest version is v2.0.
There are many changes and improvements which can be viewed here.
One of the major improvements is the inclusion of antilag system which is a big help to high pingers. I also like that Monkey Mod can now display what country players connect from.
MH suggests using the MoneyMod server files in conjunction with the new KPDED2 file.
Make sure to read the mmod.txt file for instructions and changes.
Monkey Harris has released a new KPDED2 file. This basically allows you to run dedicated public servers. In your server shortcut you just replace the kingpin.exe with the kpded2.exe.
KPDED2 fixes a number of bugs and security holes and also adds many new improvements.
The zipfile contains a very comprehensive readme which you will need to read and absorb all the information.
The readme does include some suggested Quick Start settings and most of the new default settings are fine so you wont need to change/add too many commands.
The main changes for me are:-
The allow_download_paks command means that clients are now able to download the client files for mods such as CTF and Power2 directly from the server. This is because these mods have their client files in PAK1 files.
You will also need the addcvarcheck command which adds a simple check for a client cvar. Checked when a client connects and when the 'checkcvars' command is used.
So if you run a CTF server you would need to add the line:-
addcvarcheck ctfver !* STUFF exec ctf.cfg
The allow_download_pics command allows the client to download levelshot pics directly from the server.
These commands are set to 1 by default so shouldn't need to be changed.
The set clientdir main command is for when running a mod that doesn't require any special client files (eg. PAKs), clients should be told to use their 'main' directory to avoid duplicate files in multiple directories.
Any changes you make need to be added to the relevant server.cfg file.
There are many other changes and improvements so make sure you read the readme :)
Jonez has released a beta of his new Bagman map called Team Barns beta.
This is a largish Bagman map with a farm style setting where the team's bases are two barns. There are horse stalls and another big barn/storehouse in the middle of the map where the money drop is. There are several ways to get to the enemy's base.
The map uses mostly custom textures from the old Soldier of Fortune game and there are plenty of weapons and other items. There are als several custom sounds you would hear around a farm.
***Updated 2nd Feb. Jonez has released an uodated version of this map (beta2)*** *Added light flares to pendants *Added more spawn locations *Some adjustments on items and added some ammo in middle
I have updated the download link with the new version (team_barns_b2.zip
