SavageKurtain has now released his new, original, player model for Kingpin. The model is Andy Capp the infamous British comic strip character. Andy is best described as a layabout.
The model has Kingpin weapon support and just has one skin.
Great to see a new original player model released :)
Just extract/unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
I have also included custom sounds in the Male Droid zip file. Custom sounds for the player models now work in Kingpin but you need to install the latest MH'S Kingpin patch (ver5).
You just install the patch and you will now see a new option in the Options Menu for custom player model sounds yes/no.
One of the lesser known custom player models is Male Hydralisk. The model is based on the Zerg Hydralisk from Starcraft and was converted from Quake 2. I am not sure who converted it to Kingpion (probably Sylacs or Knight) but th original Quake 2 model was made by Warlord.
It just has one skin and no viewable weapons (it attacks you with its claws).
We now have a second player model from the TV show Futurama in Kingpin. We already had Bender and now he is joined by Leela. Leela is the one eyed, sewer mutant, spaceship captain and pilot.
The model was converted from Quake 3 by Zeppelin[FnR] with some help from Hypov8. I have included the custom sounds from the original model as well.
In the early years of Kingpin EvilBunny released the first custom player model for Kingpin called Anthea. Not only was it the first but it was an original model (most player models in Kingpin are converted from other games).
He also created another model called Coffy but left the Kingpin scene before releasing it.
Luckily I saw him in a server rcently and got him to send me the model. Coffe is another original model. Coffe is a black female, has full Kingpin weapon support but uses a bat instead of the pipe. She also has sunglasses and raybans as extras.
EvilBunny only made a couple of skins so I asked Rat to make a few more which he did.
