August 4th marks my 16 year anniversary of posting news for Kingpin.
I started back in August 4th 2000 at Poisonville. When that site had to shutdown I moved to Kingpinforever.
When KP4ever shutdown I didn't have anywhere to post news until Fredz set up Kingpin Info.
I have no idea how many news posts I have many but it is thousands and thousands lol.
If you want to see my first ever post at Poisonville (New Skin) you can see it on this archived page here.
I have more maps to add that Whoop Ass sent in.
This one is KPDM77 by Michael Vist. KPDM77 is a death match map that is a modified rip of the famous stairway area from KPDM5.
The map features only three different weapons - the grenade launcher, the rocket launcher and the HMG. It also has plenty of armour and health.
You can download KPDM77 from here.
The game this Thursday, at 9pm UK time, is death match on the Newskool Fragfest server.

If you haven't dropped in for a game yet, please come along and say hi.
Acc has released beta3 of his Build Map Converter utility program which allows converting of Build Games' maps to Kingpin. Games like Duke Nukem 3D, Shadow Warrior and Blood etc.
You can check it out here.
Another map that Whoop Ass sent me is a Hitmen map called House of Horrors.
It is a two level map connected by a spiral staircase. It's a smallish map using both custom and default textures.
It has ample armour, cooling mods, and a secret room with pistol mods and armour.
You can download House of Horrors from here.
I was at gamepressure.com today looking for a game guide and decided to see if they had any info on Kingpin.
To my surprise I found not only do they have a Kingpin page but they offer a couple of Kingpin downloads.
I was happy to see that they host the COLORS CTF Mod files and what's interesting is that they were only uploaded earlier this month :)
You can check it out here.

Make sure you have the two latest CTF map releases:-
Big game today which went for over five hours:-
I know I'm a few weeks late but just letting you know that Kingpin was seventeen years old on June 30th .
Acc has released a new version of his program that converts Build Engine maps to Quake 2 (Kingpin) format.
Check out the latest news and grab the updated program in the Kingpinforever forums here.
If you look in the menu Section on the left you will see a link has been added again for the Gamespy Lite Kingpin server browser.
We have put it back because it is such an important program for Kingpin. It is the most downloaded file here with over 350 downloads. You all need a server browser so you can see the Kingpin servers and come play online :)
Just extract the kingpinspylite.exe file to your Kingpin/Gamespy folder (it will overwrite the original one).
Some versions of Kingpin don't include Gamespylite so if you don't have a kingpin/gamespy folder just create one and extract the file to there.
Just click on the link in the Menu Section to download Gamespy Lite.

If you would prefer to use the [M]-Browser, made by [M], which is independant of qtracker or gamespy, so it works even when those are down, then you can download it from here.
