I have re-uploaded the old King of the Streest mod files in a zipfile. This is for two reasons - elfor notified me that the kots.exe installer we hosted was corrupt and also becasue antivirus programs just hate exe files.
Just unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
King of the Streets was a Bagman/Capture the Bag style mod.
The basic objective of the game is to either steal (robbers) or recover (police) all the other teams breifcases on a map. A team wins when either all the money is collected from the other team, the other team is killed or your team is killed.
When you join the game you only have a Hatchet and a Berreta 9mm pistol. You have to buy other weapons, which are all custom weapons, such as the AK47.
Each team has an NPC "dealer" in their base who has the task of selling you weapons/items/ammo. He also collects the money you steal/recover from the other team. If that wasn't enough he will try and kick the hell out of any intruders who try and enter your base.
The default mode for the mod was Last Man Standing (where if you get fragged you have to wait for the round to end) so the rounds are only a few minutes each.
To play a regular game where you respawn after being fragged you need to add the following to the server.cfg.
set last_man_standing 0
You can then set timelimit, cashlimit etc as normal in the server.cfg
Long before Homer there was Fred Flintsone. Fred was the main character from the animated prehistoric sitcom The Flinstones that was made in the 1960's.
In the early days of Kingpin Speg made a Thug skin of the iconic character.
elfor has created a Kingpin Info custom console backgorund.
It just replaces the regular console background with one that has the Kingpin.info log on it :)
You can download the Kingpin.info console background from here.
The zip file is set up so you only have to extract the pak9 file to your Kingpin directory. 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 from pak2 - pak8 which you don't already have. Then copy it to your kingpin/main folder
elfor has released some new custom crosshairs for Kingpin.
There are five different sets of crosshairs (each set has three different crosshairs) and all sets are available in two different colours.
The colours are yellow and light greenish (similar to Hud colours). There are two screenshots included which show the different sets of crosshairs.
It probably easiets to just extract/unzip the files to a temp folder somewhere and decide which set you want ot use then just copy and paste the relevant pak file to your Kingpin/main folder.
Hypov8 and I have collaborated on a new player model called Male Soldier. It is converted from Quake 2 and somewhat improved. The original model in Quake 2 was made by Daniel Garcia Romero - The ][ead Crusher.
It’s the first model I have made for Kingpin and it was a very challenging experience.
It's a fairly simple model that is a Military Policeman or Soldier. The model has full Kingpin vwep support, some nice taunt animations, and several skins.
I haven't posted about any Kingpin walkthrough videos for a while and there is a new series out. These ones are by Playback TV and are spread out over about 30 short videos.
This is a normal Bagman version of the XMAS Combat map that Hypov8 and I worked on recently.
Team Combat is a smallish Bagman map set in an old war torn village. The map contains four bombed out buildings, two on either side of a 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.
There are plenty of weapons and other items and two of the buildings contain huge radios that play two old songs.
The map contains lots of custom textures and custom sounds so much quicker to download from here rather than getting it from the server.
Thanks to Hypov8 for working on the lighting and sunlight in the map.
[M] has added the new Bender model as one of the bots at his Luschen Botmatch server. So now you can frag him along with Homer, Mr Burns and the other custom bots :)
We have a new player model for Kingpin. It's Bender (Bender Bending Rodríguez) the steel bending robot from Futurama.
It is the first new player model released for Kingpin in well over fifteen years!
The model was converted from Quake 3 and work began way back in 2005 by Zeppelin[FnR]. Having a very busy life Zeppelin was never able to finish the model and the job went to Hypov8 to finally bring Bender to the Kingpin community.
Al0 has chipped in by creating many new skins for Beder and some great addons like a cigar, his famous Chefs outfit and several other hats.
I would like to thank Zeppelin, Hypov8 andd al0 for all their hard work in bringing this model to Kingpin.
Hopefully you will all download and install Bender as it's a great looking model and also to show appreciation to the people who created it for Kingpin :)
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 a lot of the newer players 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.
Server : Newskool Crash Squad IP : 37.247.117.19:31515 Date : Tuesday 9th Jan Time : 9.00pm UK time
If you are not familiar with the Crash mod there is a comprensive mod overview 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.

The Thursday game thsi week will be the Crash Squad mod.
If you haven't played the mod before you can download the client files from the server but if you want to get them beforehand 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).
I recently found the Windows server files for the old KP2 mod. The mod was never taken out of beta but it does work, and we host the client files, so I have uploaded the Windows server files.
For those of you who don't know the KP2 mod is was popular around 2003-2007.
The KP2 mod features new weapons, weather effects, breakable objects, and single player props in the multiplayer environment.
You can download the KP2 Windows Server Files from here.
I have also updated the KP2 Mappack and it now includes all the maps that were made for the mod that featured, props, rats, dogs, weather etc. Btw any death match maps will work with the mod.
