New Version Of The Kingpin Multi Patch

Captain Death has released a new version of his Kingpin Multi Patch. It now contains 5 patches for the Kingpin - Life of Crime Retail (CD) and GoG versions.

The patches are:-

1) Console clear command disable
This patch prevents the console from being cleared which also clears any chat text. A couple of mods send the clear command for no good reason when a player spawns.

2) Console condump command disable
This patch disables the condump command that gets sent along just before the clear command in some mods for no good reason.

3) Screen resolution
This patch allows video mode 6 (1600x1200) to be changed to another resolution.
The system is scanned for available video modes and presents them as options for the user to choose. Screen aspect ratio is also displayed.
The original 1600x1200 resolution can be restored.
The menu entry for mode 6 is also updated to reflect the chosen resolution.

4) Audio frequency fix
There is a bug in the Kingpin audio startup code that prevents setting the output frequency to 44100 KHz.
This patch allows a frequency to be chosen regardless of the value in s_khz.
Available frequencies are 11025, 22050, 44100 KHz. The original startup code can be restored.

5) Weapon FOV
This patch allows the player weapon to remain displayed when the FOV is above 90.
The engine maximum FOV is 160 and this can be chosen.

You can download the patch from CaptainDeath.com or I have uploaded it to Kingpin.info here.

I have applied it to Kingpin on Windows 10 64 bit and it works fine. If you have any issues then please post in the comments for this post and CD will sort it out.

As previously stated this is for the CD and GoG versions of the game. If you have the Steam version you can use the Steam resolution fix which you can download here.
