Macanah has also produced a little video on how to install addons to Quark.

Killa has modified the KPDM2 and KPDM3 maps to work in the Crash Mod as bombing scenario maps.
They are in beta status at the moment and will be tested at this week's Thursday game of Crash.
You can download the maps from here.
Just unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
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.
You can download the Kots mod files from here.
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
We also host the source files for this mod here.
elfor has created another Kingpin Info custom console backgorund. This one uses a background image found on duke4.net.
You can download the 2nd Kingpin.info console background from here.
The zip file is set up so you only have to extract the pak8 file to your Kingpin directory. This will
place the pak8 file in your kingpin/main folder.
If you already have a pak8 file in your main folder then extract the new pak8 to a temporary folder
somewhere and rename it to another number from pak2 - pak7 which you don't already have. Then copy it to your kingpin/main folder.
The Thursday game this week is going to be the Crash Squad mod.
Game details:-
Server : Newskool Crash Squad
IP : 37.247.117.19:31515

If you don't have the Crash Client files you can download the client files from the server but you can save time and download them from here.
Just unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct location (kingpin/crash).
Btw the client files contain comprehensive info which I have also uploaded as a webpage here.
elfor has sent in some custom Kingpin icons.
Hi, i was just downloading the mac version of kingpin, and noticed that it had two custom icons!
So i converted them to Windows and also added the GOG custom icon.
You can download the icons from
here.
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.
You can download Fred from here.
Just unzip all the files to your kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
Easiest way to select these skins is to:-
Pull down the console (tilde key ~)

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.
You can download the elfor crosshairs from here.
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.
You can download Male Soldier from here.
Just extract the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.

Hypov8 is now working with us on the Gunrace mod. He is working mainly on the models for the mod.
Initially we were going to have a knife as the final weapon but we decided it didn't look imposing enough so changed to a machete.
We are using TiCaL's old machete as the base but Hypo has done a lot of modification to it.
Here is a shot of the machete in the Hud. You don't see it on the other player in this screenshot as it was taken in normal Kingpin not in Gunrace.
Here is the first new map for 2018.
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.
You can download Team Combat from here.
Just unzip/extract the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.

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 :)
You can download the Bender model from here.
Just unzip/extract all the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
I have posted a heap more screenshots of Bender's different skins on one of Kingpin Facebook pages here.
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).
