[DKC]Dodge let me know he has been updating the [DKC] clan website. He has been updating links and adding a couple of downloads and that he is still working on it.
He is also trying to find old DKC clan members and get them back in the game :)
(K9)Cipher has set up a new Forum site which features a Kingpin forum.
The Forums are called Wireplay (yes like the old ones) and the Kingpin forum is in the Retro Gaming section.
So why not go register and make a few posts there. Maybe you will meet some old friends from the days when Wireplay were one of the busiest forums around.
I have uploaded a monster skins pack of thug, runt and bitch skins.
It is the skins from all other skin packs and any other skins I could find. It's about 142mg of skins.
It covers from 1999 right up to now as I inlcuded the new Duke Nukem skin released only a few days ago.
It's not all skins problaby as there have been so many and some of the skin names will be different from the ones you may already have. This is because so many different skins shared the same names sigh.
I included a readme with info on a small amount of the skins (skin names, author and how to select them).
You can download the monster skins pack from here.
Just unzip the files to your kingpin folder and the files will be placed in the correct locations.
However if you already have a lot of skins and don't want to overwrite the ones you have because a few might have the same name but be different skins do the following:-
Unzip the files to your desktop. This will create a main folder on your desktop with the skins inside. Go to where you have Kingpin installed and open your Kingpin folder. Copy the main folder from your desktop to your Kingpin folder. Click on yes when asked to merge folders. When the skins start to copy click on 'Don't copy' and tick 'Do this for the next xxxx conflicts'. Then only the skins you don't have will be installed. Then just delete the main folder you placed on your desktop.
Acc has released his conversion of the classic Duke Nukem level called Hollywood Holocaust. He had to make a few changes due to the difference in phsysics between the two games otherwise it is the same.
It is medium to large map set in a Hollywood street and inside a movie theatre. The map uses a mixture of standard and custom textures.
From the readme:-
The level contains 16 deathmatch spawn points (+1 single player start point), 4 Tommy machineguns, 3 shotguns, 1 heavy machinegun, 3 packs of pistol mods (complete with rate of fire, magnum mod and reload mod), 1 grenade launcher and 1 flamethrower.
To find the cooling mod you'll have to see James Cagney (if you don't know who that is Google it).
Acc also included Kraze bot routes in the zipfile. Check the readme for information on how he did the conversion.
I have updated the Japanese Skin Pack we host which features skins for the thug, runt and bitch models.
It was in an installer exe so I have changed it to a zipfile now.
I also fixed two of the skins that didn't work because they were 2mg in size instead of 30kbs.
I removed all the non exclusive Japanese skins that are available elsewhere
I had to rename a few of the skins as the names clashed with existing skins.
I added a readme with all the skin names with an attempt to match as many up as possible as not all skins had the same name for head, body and legs.
There are many complete skins but also several loose heads, bodies and legs.
There are some manga bitch heads which is very interesting to see in Kingpin and there are some very colourful runt skins. There is also a wide range of thug skins.
You can download the Japanese skin pack from here.
To go along with his upcoming Hollywood Holocaust death match map Acc has released a new Duke Nukem skin for the thug model. The zipfile for this one is called dukeclassic.
You can download Duke Classic thug skin from here.
I recently found the windows server files for the Enhanced Bagman mod that had been missing for about twelve years.
The mod was made by Cashmoney with help from a few others.
It's a Bagman mod with a few different features:-
* Enhanced scoreboard (fixed those ugly colors) * Replacement for the Pipe (press 1 for Machete) * Replacement for the Tommygun (Coltm41a) made by Hypov8 * New explosion graphics * New weapon sprites for muzzle flash and rocket trails * Custom music * Custom weapon sounds * Changed team names and skins (Rednecks and Punks) * Weather effects in maps (Rain and snow) * Flashbangs and regular grenades! (press Q to switch between them) * Two maps made for the EBM mod (all Bagman maps will work though)
As it is an older mod it incorporates the MMAdmin and as it is recommended to run public servers using KPDED2 I have included that file plus the readme for it. I also included a please_read.txt file with suggested settings.
If you use the KPDED2 file then players will be able to download the required client files that contain all the new skins and weapon models, maps etc.
I have combined all the files (both server and client) into one full install zipfile.
You can download the EBM Full Install for Windows files from here.
I have uploaded a custom yellow skin for the tommygun. It's in a pak4 file. You see it in your hud and on the ground but not on other players.
You can download the yellow tommygun skin from here.
The zip file is set up so you only have to extract the pak4 file to your Kingpin directory. This will place the pak4 file in your kingpin/main folder.
If you already have a pak4 file in your main folder then extract the new one to a temporary folder somewhere and rename it to another number such as pak2, pak3 etc which you don't already have. Then copy it to your kingpin/main folder.
Several years ago Cujo converted this map from Quake 2 but never quite finished it and so it was left unreleased. Recently I found it in one of my old Kingpin archives and, with a lot of help from Hypov8, was able to complete the map.
The map is a conversion of the Land of the Dead Quake 2 map that was originally made by Jester.
It is a medium sized map, set in space, that uses a custom sky and all custom textures.
It has 12 player spawns and ample weapons and items.
Here is a map I just found on one of my Kingpin backup disks. It is called Obsidian and is a straight conversion from Quake 2 by {GT}TheGhost.
It is a medium to large deathmatch map that uses all the original Quake 2 textures. It has plenty of weapons and items and should be able to handle a large crowd. It is a little bit dark in places otherwise is fine.
You can download Obsidian (kpobsidian.bsp) from here.
Some virus scanners were falsely picking up a trojan in Monkey Harris's Kingpin patch so he has updated it:-
I've attached an updated patch that is currently detected as clean by virus scanners. Hopefully it will stay that way!
Besides sorting the false virus/trojan detection problem, there are also a few more little tweaks. It has some netgraph tweaks, fixes a demo playback bug, adds demo playback speed control via the mouse wheel, and adds an FPS display option.
You can download the updated patch (Kingpin Patch Config) from here.
This is a remake of an old Doom 2 map. I used Acc's Build Map Converter to decompile the map and then rebuilt it from there.
Damage01 is a small death match map. It is an open area with a corridor around most of the edge of the map. It has two teleports, all weapons except the flamer and uses standard textures. It has ten player spawns.
You can download Damage01 (damage01_kp.bsp) from here.

There are four skins from the Austin Powers movie franchise that I know of. Two of Austin (yeah baby), one of Dr. Evil (Boo-frickity-hoo) and one of Fat Bastard (I've got more chins than a Chinese phonebook).
I am currently remaking a small Doom2 map for Kingpin called Damage01. Should be completed sometime soon.
By the way, there is already a Doom2 map in Kingpin. It's a map based on the Entryway Level from Doom2. This map was originally made for Quake2 by Hawkmoon and then I ported it to Kingpin.
You can download Entryway (kp_doom2m1.bsp) from here
Entryway is currently rotating on the Luschen Deathmatch and Botmatch servers.
