Quite often I see new players online who have only played the single player game. When I ask them if they have played any of the many custom single player missions usually the answer is no.
So this is just another opportunity to let people know that we host all the custom single player missiosn that have been released for Kingpin so far.
If you're looking to play some of the custom single player missions you can check them all out here.

Monkey Harris has updated his Kingpin patch to version 7.
A summary of the new features:-
-Fixes a few bugs
-Adds a new "redownload" command that can be used to download updated PAK files from
the server instead of visiting a website to get them.
Sometimes when you join a mod server the mod may have updated its pak file(s) and you still have the old version pak file(s).
Before this latest version of the patch when you tried to join that mod server you would get a message to say "You need v.x.xx client files to play on this server. Get them from kingpin.info" .
Now you can just type in 'redownload' and the latest pak file(s) will download and overwrite your outdated ones. This is a nice new feature.
See here:-
-Adds a notice to the Visuals and Options menus when playing certain mods telling you that if you make any config changes (change controls, visual settings etc etc) they won't get saved and you should set the changes in normal non-mod Kingpin.
See here:-
You can download MH Kingpin Patch ver7 from here.
Just unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and overwrite existing files if asked to do so.

It is called Storage Dump and is a large death match map set in some sort of storage facility. It has both indoor areas and outdoor ones as well.
It has twelve player spawns and plenty of weapons and items including three HMG's.

Here is a new video of Kingpin. It's a short 5 minute video of a player running around Rival Turf.
I'm posting it here as it is made by PropHeT Old School Gamer who is part of a retro game group who like to help keep old games alive including Kingpin :)
Please watch the vid and consider giving it a thumbs up. Maybe one or two of their group members might come for a game with us :)
