Instagib information from Monkey Harris:-

If you're unfamiliar with instagib, it's like the hitmen silencer rounds with one-hit kills, but with added lasers and gibs. I've also enabled the crowbar for it.

Another thing that instagib often has is a form of rocket jumping (but without self-damage) that can be used (with practice) to whiz around the map. I've included that, and it can be adjusted/disabled on the day depending on what people want.

Tower Arena Death Match Map

Another great death match map from the early days of Kingpin is Tower Arena by Bolt.

It's a largish map that was released in 1999. It uses all Kingpin default textures and is set in a tower style structure. There is one main arena and many exits that lead to stairs which take you up to several rooms that overlook the main arena. There are ample weapons and others items and a even a secret room.

You can download Tower Arena from here.

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.
