Neighborhood (ver.2) Death Match Map

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.

Custom HMG Skin By Hypov8

Last year  released this custom skin for the HMG.

I would say it is the most detailed of all the custom weapon skins we host and worth a look.

You can download it 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.

Outer Base Death Match Map

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.

New Bagman Map Team Subway Mayhem

Many years ago 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 :)

You can download Team Subway Mayhem from here.

Wilma Sound Pack

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.

Kingpin Info Is Now Two Years Old

Hard to believe but it has been two years since  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 :)

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).
