This map is an Xmas Crash mod version of the They Hunger Half-Life Mod DM3 map originally made by

The Vip escape point is a truck parked in a courtyard ready to roll.

I was checking Wayback for old Kingpin websites and found these two lists of some of the servers that were running back in early 2000. For those of you who were around back then which ones did you play on?

Joyeuse has released a beta of his new death match map
Lamont World Arena.
From the readme:-
Players spawn into the 4 side rooms and either walk to the arena's floor level and grab a shotgun or zip to the upper level overlooking the arena for light armor and the rocket launcher.
In the center of the arena is a belligerent Lamont swimming in a vat of toxic waste with a grenade launcher, and above the vat is a lid that continually opens, malfunctions, and drops shut with a crash, each time depositing fresh heavy armor and a full heal.
Staying in the center of the arena gives you the best stuff, but you have to avoid the stage hazard and are completely exposed in a large area with 8 entrances.
You can grab Lamont World Arena B1 from
here.
Just extract/unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
Xmas Team Cold Frags is an Xmas version of my Team Green River Bagman map.
It is snowing in the map and so the ground is snow covered.
The water is freezing in the river in the middle of the map, so a player takes damage if he enters the water.
In one of the side levels in the middle of the map, which you reach by taking a lift, you will find Santa slumming it.
You can download Xmas Team Cold Frags from

When you get a perfect kill, you will hear Duke Nukem's voice say things like like "let God sort em out".
I have done an updated version of my Xmas Sick City map and named it Xmas Sick City 2025. I had to fix an issue where players were getting trapped behind the fallen A/C unit in the corner and also the two fire barrels didn't give players and fire damage. Plus, some other minor fixes.
This is an Xmas Mod version of the famous Sick City (sickre.bsp) map that was originally made by
Cole Savage.

It's snowing in the map, so all the ground is snow covered. The map has the usual Christmas decorations/signs around the map and there are two samples of Christmas songs included.
