Here is a skin I have never seen before. It is an Orc skin for the Runt model. We don't have any info on who made it though.

Just unzip all the files to your kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
Easiest way to select these skins is to:-
Pull down the console (tilde key ~)

Check the readmes for comprehensive information.
With so many new players (and old players returning) it seems like a good time to remind people about the Information for New Players doco.
It contains lots of information and links to map-packs, models, skin-packs, mods files, patches etc.
Check it out here.
Had another random game today. Saw a couple of people in a server, joined in and and then messaged a few other people, more just joined and we ended up with a game going on. It was good to see that several of the players were new guys :)
If you are looking for a game and no one is around I suggest joining the Luschen Botmatch server and playing against the bots. Chances are other people will join you there and you'll get a game started. Especially at the moment when more new players (and old ones returning to the game) are showing up on a regular basis.
What I also suggest is getting other Kingpin players added to your friends list in Steam, Facebook, Skype etc so you can msg them when you are looking for a game.
If you are in the Kingpin Facebook groups you can also post there when you are going into a server and some of those guys might join you to.
