New Thug Skin - Carnival Of Carnage

Xanarki has created a new skin for the Thug Model.

From Xanarki:-

In the beginning of musical horrorcore (rap/rock) duo Insane Clown Posse's career, they released a set of albums known as the Joker's Cards. They were all connected and served a similar purpose. They were 1992's Carnival of Carnage, 1994's Ringmaster, 1996's Riddle Box, 1997's Great Milenko, 1999's Amazing Jeckel Brothers (Jack & Jake), 2002's The Wraith: Shangri-La, and 2004's The Wraith: Hell's Pit. Each one represented a different entity to warn and advise the listener on its message.

In 1999, Kingpin skinner QuaKEn311 created skins to match the Joker's Cards. He made a skin for each album; however, the skin for the first album (1992's Carnival of Carnage) was either never made, or was lost in time. In 2020, I decided to complete the set, and make the skin myself.

I have never made a skin before, and I'm not exactly an artistic person in general. I just wanted to complete the set, to a degree (the 2002 and 2004 albums have never been made, since they were released after QuaKEn311's time). All credits to him for the concepts and foundations, as I simply wanted to fill a small void in this little project.

I have included the skin in a zip file by itself, or in a Joker's Cards zip, which contains all 6 skins.

You can download the skins from here :-

Carnival Of Carnage

Joker's Cards

Just unzip/extract the files from the zip files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.

Your Time Stats For Kingpin

If you want to  find out how many hours you have played on Kingpin servers since March 1st 2019 then check out [M['s Time Stats here.

It shows you have many hours you have played and also when you last played.

If you mouse click on your name it will open a new window with a breakdown of how many hours you have played in which servers :)

Pretty good eh.

New HUD Icon Pics

Teo has amended some of the HUD Icon pics and made them more colourful. 

These are the icon pics you see in the HUD when you pick up a weapon, helath, ammo ,armour etc.

The pics are in a pak.3 file and you can download the new pics from here.

The zip file is set up so you only have to extract the pak3 file to your Kingpin directory. This will place the pak3 file in your kingpin/main folder.

If you already have a pak3 file in your main folder then extract the new pak3 to a temporary folder somewhere and rename it to another number such as pak2, pak4 etc which you don't already have. Then copy it to your kingpin/main folder.

New West Coast USA Server

Xanarki has setup a new dedicated server for Kingpin. It is called California Carnage and is currently running the Bagman mode.

He went thru the entire archive of Bagman maps to find a good balance of sizes (10 large maps, 20 small maps, and 30 medium maps), and they range from fan favorites to forgotten gems. Other modes will be hosted in the future.

The server is located on the west coast of the U.S.; thus, it is more suitable for Australian and U.S. players, but European players are reporting pings under 200 as well.

Plans to create an organized game favored towards U.S. timezones is being considered, but for now, you can hop in anytime for a game.

Server: California Carnage
IP: 71.93.144.165:31510
