This Thursday's game at 9.30pm UK time will be the Capture the Flag Mod on the Newskool CTF Server.
Game details:-
Server : Newskool CTF IP : 37.247.117.19:31514 Date : Thursday 1st March Time : 21.30 (9.30pm) UK Time
Check the World clock to see what time it is where you are when it is 9.30pm UK time here.
If you don't have the CTF client files you can download the files from the server but if you want to get them before hand to save time you can grab the client files (includes all CTF maps) from here.
Just extract/unzip the files to your Kingpin folder.
Neigborhood was originally an small Action Quake2 map created by JKL that was converted to Kingpin by Cujo as dm_thehood.
It was then totally rebuilt by Hypov8 and me to give it a more 'kingpinish' style. It is a small map set in an urban neighborhood at dusk. One street, five houses and a vacant lot.
You can download Neighborhood (dm_thehoodv2.bsp) from here.
Just unzip all the files to your Kingpin folder.
I also made a version that includes single player props for play with mods that support them (which is most mods these days). The setting was also changed to a winter one and it is also snowing. You can now enter some of the buildings as well.
You can download KP2 Neighborhood (kp2_dm_thehood.bsp) from here.
The skin is in pak5 file. Just extract/unzip the file to your Kingpin folder. This will place the pak5 file in your kingpin/main folder.
If you already have a pak5 file in your main folder then extract the new pak5 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.
Check out all the custom wepaon skins we host here.
Elfor has submiited a mapping tool we didn't have. This one is a tool that converts textures in .wal files to the Kingpin .tga format. So its good for converting Quake 2 textures.
Just unzip the files to a folder somewhere and place any .wal files you want to convert into the same folder. Then just run the included wal2tga.bat file.
At the moment there is a constant stream of new players and old players returning to Kingpin. So this is a good time to again post about the Information For New players documentation.
It contains lots of information and links to map-packs, models, skin-packs, mods files, patches etc.
Killa has released a new gameplay video of footage taken from the recent Crash and Death Match games as well as some footage from the Anniversary Bagman game.

Outer Base is a conversion to Kingpin, of the first single player map in Quake 2, that I did a few years ago.
It's a medium sized death match map. I have replaced most of the Quake 2 textures with Kingpin ones and used a standard KP sky environment. It has ample weapons and items and ten player spawns.
If you have played Quake 2 you will recognise this map.
You can downlaod Outer Base (kp_base1.bsp) from here.
Many years ago [YFS]Mayhem worked on a map for the Colors CTF mod that was called Subway Mayhem CTF. He also made a Bagman version but never released it. Recenrtly he gave me the map source file and after updating/changing a few thing I have released the map as Team Subway Mayhem.
Team Subway Mayhem is a small to medium sized Bagman map. The two team's bases are subway stations. There is a small middle section which is a labrinth of tunnels and sewers where there are two money drops located (cash wads).
There are ample weapons and items and also two moving trains that need to be avoided :)
I have now updated the old CTF TNT map and made a similar version to Team TNT 2017.
The main changes in CTF TNT 2018 are that it is now a bit smaller and the bases are in a more open area. I also changed a lot of the weapon and item placement.
Monkey Harris has released ver 1.2 of the Catch The Chicken Server files for both Windows and Linux.
Changes/fixes in the new version
Anti-lag system added to compensate for ping when shooting Next map voting (enabled by "mapvoting" option in CTC.INI) Bunnyhop disabling (dmflags 64) The MOTD can be removed sooner by pressing fire Map timer added to HUD Notification of connecting players Weapon reloading is disabled when the player has no more ammo for it Models without chicken support are disabled (replaced by thug/chick with random skin) Chicken respawns if it goes in a dangerous area (eg. trigger_hurt) Fix to prevent spawning within another player
You only need these files if planning to run a CTC server.
I have created a sound pack to go along with the new Wilma Flintstone model.
I used some sounds from the Quake 2 version of the model and also some sounds I found on the net.
The sound pack replaces the standard female sounds for the various death, pain, jumping, falling and gurp (whatever that is) sounds as well as adding some Wilma taunts :)
You can downlaod the Wlima Fintstone Sound Pack from here.
Just unzip the Pak4 file into you kingpin folder and it will be placed in the correct location.
If you already have a pak4 file then extract the new pak4 to a temp location somewhere (such as your desktop), rename it to a number you dont have such as pak2, pak3 etc then copy it to your kingpin/main folder.
If you haven't already downloaded the Wilma model then you can download it from here.

Hard to believe but it has been two years since Fredz created the Kingpin Info site. The first news post was made on 1st Feb. 2016.
This time last year I posted that 2016 had been a good year and that I hoped things continued to go well in 2017. Well I think they did.
People are still releasing various add-ons for the game (which is always a good sign) and it's still being played both single player and online.
My hope for 2018 is that we build on the work that has already been done. That we continue to keep the game alive online and they we attract even more new (and returning) players. But most importantly that we have fun whilst playing the game :)
3CTF2 Revised is a remake of the Quake3 CTF map Q3CTF1 created by [YFS]Mayhem way back in January of 2002. He used the KPDM5 texture set which he uses for most of his maps.
It's a small, straight forward, Bagman map with the two bases seperated by an open area where the money drops are (the map has two money drops which drop cash rolls). There are ample weapons, armour and other items in the map.
Hypov8 has converted the Wilma Fintstone player model from Quake 2 to Kingpin. The original model was created by Fafner.
Hypo did a lot of work to imrove the animations and gave here a custom pistol and melee weapon. He also made several extra skins for the model. The model has several nice taunt animations as well.
elfor has released some more new custom crosshairs for Kingpin.
These ones are Half-Life style crosshairs and there are two different sets (each set has three different crosshairs). The two sets are the same crosshairs only in two different colours. The sets of crosshairs are contained in two pak files (pak3 and pak4).
It probably easiest 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.
