Back in 2000 UnForgiven created a death match map called TheStack. It was a cool looking map but it had a few issues like no juniors (for directional lighting) and only a few player spawns.
So I recently remade it adding juniors, more player spawns and remaking some of the areas.
The Stack 2019 is a medium sized, classic indoor urban, death match map.
It was only today that I found out that the map is a remake of an old N64 Goldeneye Map The Stack.
You can downlaod The Stack 2019 from here.
Another big crowd today.
Welcoem to ARM and Epos and welcome back to Clart.

Mr.Goodfinger and I have collaborated on a new death match map called Street DM.
Street DM is a medium sized death match map where the setting is an urban street and also inside some of the buildings.
It uses all custom textures so looks quite unique in Kingpin. It has 14 player spawns and ample weapons and items.
It utilises some parts of maps from Mr.Goodfingers upcoming single player mission Street Revenge and also some new areas.
It has had two beta versions which were tested over the last two weeks and now the final version is released :)
You can grab Street DM from here.
We are still awaiting responses to the questiosn from the community that were sent to Ryan Feltrin but Method sent some of the general questions to three of the other Kingpin developers too. So far Rafael Paiz has responded with his answers.
You cn check out the Q & A with Rafael here.
The Thursday Game this week will be an hour or so of the GunRace mod and the rest of the night will be the Crash Mod.

Why you should come and play in the weekly games:-
Kingpin is a classic old game.
It's fun to play.
The community is friendly and helpful.
Most of the mods that are played are either new or have been updated in the last year or so.
Most of the maps that are played are either new or from the last two or three years.
Some of the classic old maps are still played also.
While we wait for the Kingpin developers to respond to questions that the community recently submitted Fredz has uploaded two older interviews.
One is with Dan Koppel (Technical Lead and Senior Level Design) which seems to be from 1999 and the other one is with Rafael Paiz (Lead Programmer) and looks to be from the early 2000's. Both interveiws were conducted by Method.
I like this part from Rafael's interview:-
Q: Did you enjoy working on Kingpin:Life of Crime?
A: Working at Xatrix was the best time I ever had making games, there was just a special kind of magic while I was there. The entire team was very dedicated and we were able to create several great games.
