Sanctuary is the fifth and final episode of a five part single player series for Kingpin made by Wheelbarrow.
The story: Here you are at Grand Central Station at midnight,the biggest train station you've ever seen, with only bums and whores wandering around at this time of night to keep you company.But you are so intent on getting on that train, you fail to notice the pin-stripes lurking around the station....or that nobody else appears to have gotten on the same train that you're taking. It's not over yet....
Check the santuary1 readme for much more detailed information and hints.
Wheelbarrow made a story that spreads over five episodes. The order in which to play them is Funeral, The Chase, Gulag, Reprisal and Sanctuary.
If you haven't downloaded the complete player models pack from here because you only want to have a few select models then maybe you should check out the Chastity model.
Chastity the Vampire female model was converted to Kingpin by TiCaL. She is a famous comic book character and was originally created for Quake 2 by Jade Moffatt.
I have added all the custom skins for the model to the zipfile so it is the complete package.
You can download Chastity the Vampire female model from here.
Unzip the files into your kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations. Start the game and choose the model from the player setup menu.
Reprisal is the fourth episode of a five part single player series for Kingpin made by Wheelbarrow.
The story: After the incident in Europe (Gulag), the European authorities deported you back Stateside, where you were quickly tried, convicted and jailed on numerous international charges (including gun-running). But the gangs want their revenge for the deaths you caused overseas, so they have decided to break you out of your cell and execute you. Fortunately for you, they blow the wrong cell, and kill the poor sucker in the cell next to yours. Having a convenient hole blown in your cell wall, you use this opportunity to make good your escape, so now, once again, the gangs are after your ass...and this time it's personal. The only way to get them off your back is to find the gang boss and take him out, letting confusion reign as the lackeys fight for the top job.
Check the readme in the zipfile for a lot more information.

There is a game of Bagman this Sunday and it will be on the East Coast Snitch Slappa server starting at 9pm UK time.
***Please note*** The Uk starts Daylight Saving time at 2am Sunday 26th March so make sure to check the world clock as it could mean the game starts one hours earleir for you depending on where you are located.
Game details:-
Server : East Coast Snitch Slappa IP : 168.235.68.219:31512 Mod : Bagman Date : Sunday 26th March Time : 9pm UK time
Check the World clock to see what time it is where you are when it is 9pm UK time here.
Btw if you don't have a Kingpin server browser you can grab Gamespylite from here
Grab the complete Bagman mappack (all maps released up to Nov. 2016) from here.
See you in the server :)
Check out the latest video of highlights of the games in February here.
Fantastic game today - a long game and a good crowd. What more could you ask for :)
The Crash Squad client files contain all the maps that were originally released with the mod but there have been several other maps made for it that are all included in a map pack.
The map pack contains thirteen maps (eleven really as there are two versions of two of the maps). Monkey Harris is adding a couple of the maps to his Crash mod server so we will be playing them at the game on Thursday.
If you just want to try the modified textures extract zzzpak1 to your Kingpin folder or extract both if you want to try the new console background as well.
You will need to rename them as Kingpin only recognises pak1, pak2 names not zzzpak1, zzzpak2.
I suggest renaming them to pak2, pak3 or which ever pak numbers you dont have in your kingpin folder up to pak9.

Gulag is the third episode of a five part single player series for Kingpin made by Wheelbarrow.
The Story: There is a big meeting of gang members from all over the country planned in an old dis-used internment camp (gulag) in one of the Eastern Block countries. The gangs figure this is the only way to have such a meeting and not get interrupted by the free world authorities. You have followed the gang members over there (because you're psychotic), to this 'gulag' on the outskirts of a large Eastern BLock city, where you're determined to take out as many as you can.
Check the gulag.txt readme in the zipfile for a lot more information.
Wheelbarrow made a story that spreads over five episodes. The order in which to play them is Funeral, The Chase, Gulag, Reprisal and Sanctuary.
The Kingpin downloads page at Gamefront just hit 50,000 visits. It took a long time but they have had nearly 8,000 in the last month since I started uploading Kingpin files there.
This Thursday we are going to give the Crash Squad mod another go.
Game details:-
Server : Newskool Crash Squad IP : 37.247.117.19:31515 Date : Thursday 23rd March Time : 9pm UK time
If you don't have the client files you can download them from here.
Just unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct location (kingpin/crash).
If you already have the old version of the Crash files installed you can still use them but you should open the Kingpin/crash folder and rename the pak9 file to pak1. The reason being is that the new client files are downloadable from the server and are in a pak1 file. If you don't already have a pak1 file in your crash folder it will download it.
If you don't know about the Crash mod you can read all about it here.
Take note that there is a team radio where you can send simple command messages to your team (cover me, follow me, I see them etc). To access the radio and select a command press F3.
Check the World clock to see what time it is where you are when it is 9pm UK time here.

I saw Zeppelin(FnR) in M's Kingpin chat room today. While he didn't say anything it was still good to see him there.
He used to map for Kingpin and one of the maps he made is called Dead and Broken.
It's a smallish map, with custom textures, some custom sounds, has 16 spawn points, and was originally made for Quake2 by Jester.
It has one of every weapon, although HMG is much harder to get at than other weapons and you will need to find a button to get to a secret area where the cooling mod is.
You can download Dead and Broken (jdab.bsp) from here.
I hope Zeppelin drops in for a game of Kingpin soon.
The Chase is the second episode of a five part single player series for Kingpin made by Wheelbarrow.
The Story : This map-pak follows on from where the first pak finished. You have followed the head dude down thru the escape tunnel in his kitchen, and find yourself standing in an underground passage, directly below the hatch. Follow the trail of henchmen from his underground boat-house, to the bunkers of an old disused military base, where you'll hopefully have your revenge.
It's been a while since I posted about a singleplayer episode so I thoghut I would make up for it by posting about the five part series made by Wheelbarrow.
The Funeral is the first episode of the series.
The Story : You have been invited to the funeral of an enemy boss...figuring it's the right thing to do, you make a point of attending, but soon after your arrival, you start having second thoughts.....Fortunately, you had the foresight to have one of you lackeys plant a small firearm in the entrance foyer of the church...checkout the water before you go in for the early morning service...Good Luck!
The order in which to play the five episodes is Funeral, The Chase, Gulag, Reprisal and Sanctuary.
Each episode is stand alone but all five mappacks continue the same story. It starts with the first pack The Funeral where you are attending the funeral of a rival gang boss. The following packs you are pitted gainst a gang that basically wants you dead and it culminates with a showdown in a large military base in Sanctuary.
Fredz has added a link to Monkey Harris's Kingpin Patch in the Menu Section on the left (Kingpin Patch Config). It'll be there for a few weeks until everyone who wants it has downloaded it.

Monkey Harris has released v04 servver files for the Crash Mod for both Linux and Windows.
V04 features bug fixes and improvements. You can read all aboutthe changes in he readme but some of them are the addition of anti-lag, tweaks to the radar, tweaks to the molotov cocktails and enabling of downloading from Crash servers.
You can download the Crash server files from here.
***Update 15th March*** Monkey Harris has released an updated version of the server files fixing a small bug that was missed. Download Links have been updated to new versions.
If you are going to run a Crash server you need the clent file too for the Crash maps and so players can downlaod the client fiels from the server if they don't have them already.
It is recommended that you use the KPDED2 Enhanced Kingpin Server File to run your server. Apart from many other fixes and imrovements it allows players to download the client file from the server.
Here is a Russian Youtube video showing people how to download Gamespylite, set it up, and use it to go and play online. It also shows some footage of various servers. Kingpin.info and [M]'s Server page are shown.
Surely it's worth a view and a thumbs up for helping to promote playing Kingpin online.
A few years ago a site called Gearburn featured an article called the Top 10 videogame weapons of all time. Kingpin made the list but probably not for the weapon you think.
If you are running, or plan to run, a dedicated Kingpin server running Crash Squad, Capture the Flag or Power 2 mods and want clients to be able to download the client files from the server.
Make sure to use the KPDED2 Enhanced Kingpin Server file which you can download from here.
The KPDED2 is set up allow_download_paks by default but some mods still need an addcvarcheck command to check if client already has the files so all you need to do is add the following to the relevant mod's' server.cfg file:-
Capture The Flag Mod
Add the following to the CTF server.cfg:-
addcvarcheck ctfver !* STUFF exec ctf.cfg
Power2 Mod
Add the following to the Power2 server.cfg:-
addcvarcheck power2ver !* STUFF exec power2.cfg
Crash Squad
Monkey Harris has updated the Crash mod so you don't need to add the addcvarcheck command to the server.cfg.
But he has set it up so the Crash documentation can be downloaded to the client from the server.
To allow this just add the following to the Crash server.cfg:-
setclientfiles documentation.chm
I hope this helps anyone planning on running a server for any of these mods.

I found a Kingpin custom weapon soundpack we didn't have at kingpin.info.
It's called Top class weapon sounds and is a pakfile containing custom sounds for most Kingpin weapons (pistol, tommygun, shotgun, HMG, Grenade Launcher, Rocket Launcher).
The original author is unknown. but was updated by jjaf.de who released an updated pak6 file.
You can download the Top class weapon sounds from here.
The skin is in pak6 file. Just extract/unzip the file to your Kingpin folder. This will place the pak6 file in your kingpin/main folder.
If you already have a pak6 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.
We have several custom weapon sound packs if you fancy a change from the regular weapon sounds. Check them out here.
Check the readmes for install instructions.

A few years ago Zeppelin[FnR] converted the cleaver weapon model from counterstrike.
The cleaver replaces the pipe in your hud only so other players will still see you holding the pipe.
You can download the cleaver weapon model from here.
The cleaver is in a pak9 file. Just extract/unzip the 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.
Killa has released a new gameplay video of footage taken from our weekly games. This one is of two games in February that feature us playing death match (kpdm3) and Bagman (Team Japan).
If this video whets your appitite for some frantic online Kingpin action then come and join us for a game on a Thursday or Sunday soon :)
You can check out Killa's other gameplay videos here.

The Thursday game this week is going to be the Crash Squad mod. This will be the first time we have played this mod in a long time (other than the practice session on Tuesday).
Game details:-
Server : Newskool Crash Squad IP : 37.247.117.19:31515 Date : Thursday 9th March Time : 9pm UK time Maxclients : 18
Just unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct location (kingpin/crash).
Please note that if you already have the current Crash client files then you will still be able to connect to the Crash server.
However you should rename the pak9 file that is in your crash folder to pak1.
The reason being is that the new client files are downloadable from the server and are in a pak1 file. If you don't already have a pak1 file in your crash folder it will download it.
This is a great and fun mod with a reasonable sized crowd so I hope you can all make it for a game :)
Btw the client files contain comprehensive info which I have also uploaded as a webpage here.
Take note that there is a team radio where you csan send simple command mesaages to your team (cover me, follow me, I see them etc). To access the radio and seelct a command press F3.
Another long session today with a good crowd :)
Hopefully we will play the Crash mod again soon.

Gamefront is a gaming file resource site. It features addons for many great games both old and new.
It was in limbo for a while but it's back now under new management.
Of course it features a Kingpin page where you can download Kingpin files. It only has about 1% of the amount of files that Kingpin Info has at this stage but at least it's another site where people can go and downlaod Kingpin files.
IMO, the more sites that feature Kingpin and the more people that know about it the better. If people visit the Kingpin page at Gamefront and download the files it then keeps Kingpin up amonst the most popular games.
Gamefront has a 'Popular' games tab and quite often Kingpin features on the front page of popular games. There is always the chance that when people see there is still a small, active Kingpin community, still releasing addons for the game we might end up with a few more players online.
It's also possible that someone who doesn't know about Kingpin Info could post a map or mod or skin etc there that we don't have :)
Anyway go check out the Gamefront Kingpin page here.

Team Enigma is an older Bagman map made by Sandman.
It is a small to medium sized map that is an old style Bagman map. That means that there are switches, located in rooms near the safe, to open the safes, and the weapons and items are spread throughout the map instead of in weapon caches in the bases. It's an urban style map.
There will be a little Crash mod practice game on Tuesday 9pm UK time.
The reason being is because the game this Thursday is going to be the Crash Squad Mod and many ppl have not played this mod before and others have but not for many years.
As such I suggest you join me in the Newskool Crash server on Tuesday from 9pm UK time for an hour or so , so that we can get a little practice in.
If you already have the current Crash client files then you need to open kingpin/crash and rename the pak9 there to pak1. Then you are good to go.
If you don’t have the crash client files you can download the latest ones from here.
Just unzip to your Kingpin folder.
The client files contain comprehensive info which I have also uploaded as a webpage here.
Crash mod is similar to counter strike. There are 2 scenarios - bombing scenario and VIP escort. So some maps are bombing and some maps are VIP escort.
Each map goes for several rounds with each round taking a few minutes.
So the team wins the map that has won the most rounds.
When you die you don’t respawn until the next round starts.
So we could play at least one bombing map and one VIP map.
The maps are large and will need to be learned (or re-learned).
Once you get the hang of it the mod is awesome IMO.
Anyway I will be in the Crash server on Tuesday 9pm for an hour or so and hopefully you can join me :)

The Sunday Bagman game this week will be on Killa's Bagman server starting at 9pm UK time.
Game details:-
Server : Sundays Bagman Game IP : kp.servegame.com:31519 Date : Sunday 5th March Time : 9pm UK time Maxclients : 24
Check the World clock to see what time it is where you are when it is 9pm UK time here.
Come along and join in the fun and check out some of the many recent Bagman maps that have been released.
It is so cool that we get to play so many new maps when you consider the age of Kingpin. I would say that there are not that many games from the same era that still have that much content being released.
Just unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct location (kingpin/crash).
Please note that if you already have the current Crash client files then you will still be able to connect to the Crash server.
However you should rename the pak9 file that is in your crash folder to pak1.
The reason being is that the new client files are downloadable from the server and are in a pak1 file. If you don't already have a pak1 file in your crash folder it will download it.
Their is comrehensive documentation in the client files and I have now uploaded that information to Kingpin Info so you can read it online. It tells you everything you need to know about the mod.
This is a patch for Kingpin that fixes a number of bugs, and adds some other improvements too (see the readme). No files are modified by the patch, so it works with all Kingpin (v1.21) releases, including the Steam version. The WINMM.DLL file is the patch that gets loaded by Kingpin and PATCHCFG.EXE is a configuration app for the patch. Both files should be put in your Kingpin directory.
There are heaps of fixes and improvements, including custom screen resolutions, several download tweaks, console and hud fixes etc, and you can see a complete listhere.
If you don't want absolutely all the custom models for Kingpin that are available in one large models pack here. then maybe you just one to get some of the more popular ones.
In that case you should download the male Mr Burns player model that was converted to Kingpin by TiCaL. I have just updated the Mr Burns zipfile to iinclude all his custom skins.
As Mr Burns himself is noted as saying:-
"Look at them! Jackaninnys - Goldbrickers - Layabouts - Slugabeds! They're all pathetic morons wasting my precious money! None of these piss-ants are worthy to become the Kingpin! I have no choice but to win myself!"
You can download the Mr Burns player model from here.
Monkey Harris has released an updated version of the KPDED2 files for windows and Linux.
The update adds support for faster downloading and also a new "sv_download_precache" option.
If you're planning on running a Kingpin serer you need to be using this. Basically you use the kpded2.exe instead of the kingpin.exe in your server shortcut and add any of the new options you want to use on your server to the server.cfg.
As well as fixing bugs and security holes, kpded2 adds a bunch of other improvements, including the following:
* A workaround for the Kingpin client's broken download support, to allow sounds and skies to be downloaded from the server. PAK files and other Game DLL specific files can also be downloaded from the server.
* Reduced bandwidth, memory and CPU usage. Very low CPU usage when idle mode is enabled by the Game DLL.
* Packet loss measurement and duplicate packet sending to reduce it.
* Message buffering to prevent overflows.
* Support for team info in server browsers.
* A new console window with command history on Windows ("-oldconsole" can be used in the command-line to enable the old style console window).
* A bunch of new config options and commands which you add to your server.cfg file.
We hosted several different zipfiles containing different extras for the thug and bitch models so I have simplified it by creating two new zipfiles. One contains all the extras for the thug model and the other contains all the extras for the bitch.
The bitch has a backpack, cap, fedora, stetson and joint.
The thug has a backpack, a new hat, a german helmet, and a joint.
The thug extras zipfile also contains the skin for a German soldier (head_axi, body_axi, legs_axi) as the backpack and German helmet were originally created for this skin.
