Team Berlin is a small, frantic, Bagman map that is a remake of an old Quake 2 mod map.
Each team has small spawn rooms where you grab armour and ammo and then teleport out to the playing area.
There are two bases separated by a wall in the middle of the map. The money drop is on the wall and there are sevral ways to get over the wall.
You can download Team Berlin from here.
We may have a new player model to use in the servers shortly. It's been about 15 years in the making but it will be well worth the wait.
Check out a screen shot here.

The girls don't really appreciate the Art Erotique Bagman map like the guys do so Monkey Harris has created an amended version just for them. In the revised version all the art has been stolen and all that is left are the boards that the paintings were mounted on.
You can download Team Art Stolen from here.
If you want to grab the original Art Erotique Bagman map (team_art) you can download it from here.
Update 27th April For an alternate solution Acc has remade all the art textures to look like they have been defaced by vandels so all are covered up.

Shots from the game:-
The map being converted from Quake 2 that I posted about a few weeks ago is now completed.
The map was called wolfendm3 in Quake 2 and was made by [WolfeN].
It's a medium sized , multi level, map. It has 17 player spawns and ample weapoin and items.
There are two versions - one uses the original Quake 2 textures (wolfendm3) and the other one has a few changes and uses the central towers texture set (wolfendm3_kp).
You can download the maps from here:-
Mancer 2 is a map which is also a conversion/remake from Duke Nukem 3D and was a collaboration between Fredz and Whoop Ass.
Mancer 2 is a small death match map. The main area is an open area and there is swimming pool with a underwater passge to the other side of the map.
You can download Mancer 2 from here.
Mancers is a map Fredz converted from Duke Nukem 3D using Build Map Converter Programs.
It's a smallish, fun, death match map which has six player spawns and uses a combination of Kingpin and Duke Nukem 3D textures.
The original Duke Nukem map was made by Cole Savage who made Sick City (sickre.bsp) map for Kingpin.
You can download Mancers from here.
Here is a skin for the thug model of the late rapper and actor 2Pac Shakur. It was made by Guido Fan way back in 1999.
You can download the 2Pac thug skin from here.
Extract the skins into your Kingpin folder and they will be placed into the correct location!
Easiest way to select this skin is to:-
Pull down the console (tilde key ~)
type in :- skin "male_thug/517 517 517"
Acc has been doing a lot of work on his Build to Quake Map Converter program.
New stuff! There's been so much rewriting of the code (yet there's still so much more to go), I renamed the program entirely; say hello to sectorCut. It supports all Build engine maps cutAlpha supported, but also adds Doom Engine maps and Jedi Engine maps to the list. It can still extract textures for each map converted (even though I only tested the export routine for TGA files). As I wrote in the readme, it's a little "rough around the edges", but it will be easier for me to expand upon.
You can read about it and download the latest version from here.
If you are having problems getting Kingpin to work on a laptop that has Intel graphics card try these fixes:-
Download the GLDirect utility from here and copy the opengl32.dll that comes with it to your Kingpin folder.
The other fix is to download and install the nGlide 3DFX wrapper from here.
This nGlide fix has just been tested by Zeppelin)FNR) and Killa and has worked for both of them :)
Thanks to Fredz for investigating and suggesting this.

Team Big Town is a Bagman map I released a couple of years ago. Because it is a large map it never gets played on the servers but now that we have big crowds for the Sunday Bagman games maybe it can get a run :)
The map is set in an urban city environment featuring many buildings, streets and intersecting passageways. There is a train station in the middle of the map which is the money drop area. I included two cash drops with both money bags and cash wads included.
The map is old style in that the weapons and items are placed all around the map and not in weapon caches in the bases (of course there are some weapons and items in the bases lol).
With a large crowd it should be a blast.
You can download Team Big Town (team_dmg3.bsp) from here.
Another great sound pack we have is of Bender from Futurama. This pack replaces many of the male taunts with classic one liners from Bender such as the infamous ''bite my shiney metal ass" :)
You can download the Bender sound pack from here.
Just unzip the pak3 file into you kingpin folder and it will be placed in the correct location.
If you already have a pak3 file then extract the new pak3 to a temp location somewhere (such as your desktop), rename it to a number you dont have such as pak2, pak4 etc then copy it to your kingpin/main folder.

Here is a very nice looking death match map made by Hypov8 many years ago.
KPDM1 Quaked is KPDM1 remade in the Quake 3 style. It uses mostly Quake style textures and the big thing is that there are no ladders (as there are none in Quake 3 ). So it uses platforms and stairs instead. It also includes some Quake sounds. Overall it looks great.
Grab KPDM1 Quaked from here.

Another fun game that went for many hours.
Fredz has uploaded the most recent version of Acc's Build Map Converter.
It is an utility program which allows you to convert Build Games' maps to Kingpin. Games include Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior and Blood etc.
He is also thinking about adding support for Doom maps.
You can download the latest version here
Occasionaly someone asks me how to install Kingpin on a Macintosh. I have to say I don't know but I point them to a page that explains how to do it. It involves installing an application called Crossover.
You can read how to do it here.
It's amazing what you can find on the net (usually when you are looking for something else). Recently I found a Kingpin Playguide in my Favourite PC game magazine PC Powerplay. It seems old issues are archived online.
Just click on a page to turn to the next one and use zoom in and zoom out.
You can read the article here.
If you can't see that link for some reason we host that edition of PC Powerplay plus several others in PDF format here.
It's also good to flick through the pages and see what was big at the time and see what has disappeared in the time since.
The other day I was showing Lyph some death match maps set in castles and found one I hadn't seen in yonks :)
The map is called Knights-Castle-1 and was made or converted by {GT}Knight. I have played it in the past but not for many years and can't remember it much.
The maps is a small to medium sized map set in a castle. It uses all custom textures but is missing a custom sound (quake.wav). It also features some teleports.
Update 11th April Zeppelin has sent in the missing Quake.wav so I have added it to he zipfile and uploaded the updated one.
There seems to be enough weapons and items and should be ok for a blast.
You can download Knights-Castle-1 from here.
Just unzip the files to your Kingpin folder.
When Solider of Fortune (SoF) was released in 2000 many Kingpin players and mappers left KP to go play SoF. As a result several Kingpin maps were converted to Sof.
While I prefer the originals it's always good to see some Kingpin crop up in other games.
We have a lot of the Kingpin maps that were converted SoF here.
Btw there, like Kingpin, there are still some ppl that play SoF online you just need to download the Soldier of Fortune Community Edition (search it).
Here is a thug skin I don't think I had seen before. It's a nice looking skin called Eradicator and is possibly a comic book character? Also there is no information who the author was in the zipfile :(
You can download the Eradicator thug skin from here.
Just unzip all files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.

It was ten years in the making and, remember, this was all made by one peron Felikkz7
You can download Night Work At The Factory from here.
Some people have problems understanding the vocals in the opening cutscene so Felikkz7 created a comic book style cartoon to explain the events in the bar.

You can read it here.
We host two versions of the Reckless Abandon death match map.
These are conversions of the famous Quake 2 map.
The first version is by PeNdEjO and uses all the original Quake 2 textures.
The other version is by Rat Instinct. Rat's version uses Kingpin default textures and looks a lot different from PeNdEjO's one.
Originally they both had the same map name which was match1.bsp so I renamed Rat's version to match1_rat.bsp. So now you can have both and compare the differences between them :)
You can download these maps from here:-

***This week we want to try to break our record for number of players in the server. Currently it stands at either 19 or 20 (opinions vary) so we want to try to get 21 people in the server at one time, all playing :) ***
We had a big crowd but we didn't quite manage to break the record (19 was max today). Maybe next week :)
Fredz has added a Contact Us Button in the Menu Section.
If you look to the left at the bottom of the Menu section you will see an Envelope Icon. Click on it and you can then send an email to either Fredz or myself with Kingpin news or any technical issues with the site.
So if you have any Kingpin news or files to send us it's now easier to get in touch.
This is a map I converted from Quake 2 a few years ago. It's a smallish map with simple layout set in the cartoon land of Southpark.
It features all custom textures, a teleport, and a custom sky. It also includes a lemonade stand run by Kenny which Hypov8 added to the map. See what happens when you kill Kenny :)
You can download Southpark KP (ver2) from here.
Just unzip all files to your Kingpin folder.
To check if you already have the map look for southpark_kp_v2.bsp in your Kingpin/main/maps folder.
