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" :)
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.

For any of you that don't already know there is a sound pack for Kingpin of Homer Simpson.
The custom Homer sounds replace some of the default thug sounds and is 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.
On Wednesday December 27th, Xanarki is organsiing a game of the Enhanced Bagman Mod on Mac’s USA Enhanced Bagman Server.
***Please note that the time has changed to 9pm UK time (4pm EST time)***
Game details:-
Server : planetmnh.16mb.com USA bagman enhanced IP : 107.172.207.142:32333 Date : Wednesday 27th December Time : 9.00pm UK time (4pm EST)
You can download the EBM files from the server but I highly recommend downloading them from here.
Just unzip/extract the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct location(kingpin/enhanced)
There is a map-pack for the server which you can download here.
EBM is just like bagman, but with a few different features:-
* Replacement for the Pipe (press 1 for Machete) * Replacement for the Tommygun (Coltm41a) * New explosion graphics & weapon sprites for muzzle flash and rocket trails * Changed team names and skins (Rednecks and Punks) * Flashbangs and regular grenades! (press Q to switch between them)
The map list consists of some maps we rarely (if ever) play, mixed in with some favourites and classic maps as well.
The game is geared towards USA players thus the later times, but of course, everyone is encouraged to join.
Currently Gamespylite is running slowly. It is working but you need to refresh a few times to see the servers.
So I though this would be a good time to list all the Kingpin server browsers and options for connecting to the Kingpin servers.
Gamesylite
Probably the most famous Kingpin server browser.
If you add all the servers to your Favourites then they will show up even when GSLite is having issues.
Right click on the server and select 'add to favourites'. After you have added them all just Press the 'Favorites' button to list all your favourite servers.
The IP adresses for the Luschen servers change daily so what you need to do is go to your folder where you installed GSLite (probably kingpin/gamespy) and open the gspylitefavors.txt (using notepad or similar).
This one just gets installed to your Kingpin folder.
It includes several options including the ability to join servers directly from [M]'s Kingpin Server List page.
When you have the [M] browser open press M and this will install an entry into the Windows registry. Now when you visit [M]'s Kingpin Server List page you will be able to join any server by clicking on the M in 'join options'.
You can download [M]'s Kingpin server browser from here.

Monkey Harris has released the Xmas Mod v1.60 Server files for both Windows and Linux. There are a heap of fixes and updates which you can read about in the included history.txt file.
If you plan on running a public server (and allow players to download the client files) you need to download the KPDED2 files (make sure to read the included comprehensive readme).
Had another random game today. Saw a couple of people in a server, joined in and and then messaged a few other people, more just joined and we ended up with a game going on. It was good to see that several of the players were new guys :)
If you are looking for a game and no one is around I suggest joining the Luschen Botmatch server and playing against the bots. Chances are other people will join you there and you'll get a game started. Especially at the moment when more new players (and old ones returning to the game) are showing up on a regular basis.
What I also suggest is getting other Kingpin players added to your friends list in Steam, Facebook, Skype etc so you can msg them when you are looking for a game.
If you are in the Kingpin Facebook groups you can also post there when you are going into a server and some of those guys might join you to.

Fragtown Revolution was the first of the Fragtown Quake 1 map converted to Kingpin. In Quake 1 it is called Fragtown Bronx. It was converted by [TCC] Bad Ass.
It is a classic, smallish, urban style death match map. There is lots of fighting in the streets but you can also enter some buildings and fight on the rooftops too.
Interplay still have forums for their games. Some of you might have been registered there in days gone by but now find you can't post in their forums any more. That's because a while ago they moved servers and they lost some settings.
Hypov8 and I have collaborated on a new Winter themed map called Xmas Combat. It is a remake of the old death match map called Combat.
Xmas Combat is a smallish Xmas themed Bagman map set in an old war torn village during Wintertime. The map contains four bombed out buildings, two on either side of a frozen river which dissects the map through the middle. There are also two army vehicles included.
The money drop is on the bridge that crosses the river. The team's bases are in two of the bombed out buildings.
The ground is covered in snow and two of the buildings contain huge old radios that play traditional Chrsitmas music.
Iceland 2 is a small, arena style, fun map set in a Winter environment. The ground is icy so you slide all over the map. The map was inspired by the original Iceworld map. It has plenty of weapons, ammo, health and armour and uses a couple of textures fom the Rourkes Graffiti texture pack.
Captain Death has released the client files for the Xmas CTF mod.
Capture The Flag Christmas Mod is a merger between Colors - Capture The Flag and Xmas mods.
The gameplay is still the same as normal CTF, but with a Christmas flavour. Capture The Flag Christmas mod is written using Colors - CTF v1.2 server and some code from Xmas mod by FREDZ.
You can download the Xmas Mod CTF Client Files from here.
Just unzip all the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.

Here is a map I converted to Kingpin from Quake, a few years ago, called The Edge of Oblivion. The original Quake map was made by The Levelord. The map is probably better known as hipdm1.
It's a medium sized deathmatch map and, apparently, the Quake version was the very first space map or 'suspended platform, aka void' map ever made.
The map consists of several interconnected platforms suspended above a space void.
You can download The Edge of Oblivion (kphipdm1.bsp) from here.
