1) THE GAME
   --------

1.1) What is Genocide HMG all about?

Genocide HMG (G-HMG) is a Mod based around the best weapon available in the game Kingpin, with one or two twists. I wrote this because I was sick to death of people camping where the HMG's are located on the Deathmatch levels, so now we will be able to see what skill they've really got :)

1.2) The rules.

Kill everyone.

1.3) So whats in it for me?

Apart from the basic idea of every weapon spawning as a HMG there are one or two other things that have been added to improve and enhance the experience. When the game starts the ammo clips for the HMG can be spawned in one of two ways depending on what the server is set to. The first is to simply have the ammo clips spawned as normal which is fair enough, the second way however has every ammo clip no matter what it is spawned as a HMG clip, so they'll be no running out with this on. A Mod wouldn't be much fun if there wasn't something else in it and there is, after you reach a certain number of kills (decided by the server admin) you get a bonus. There are currently only 3 bonus's but this will increase with time (and your ideas) they are :-

1) Set health to 200.
2) Decrease everyones health to 10.
3) Double damage HMG for 30 seconds. Hmmm tasty.

1.4) Installing and running.

If you are just a client wanting to connect to a game you don't need to do a damn thing as this  is a server side Mod meaning you just dial up and start killing. If however you want to run a server on a LAN yourself just unzip all the files into your Kingpin directory and run GHMGServer.bat.

2) CONFIGURING A SERVER
   --------------------

This Mod only has two non-standard server commands and they are straight forward enough to setup. The first is the one for controlling how the ammo spawns "set HMGclips 1" this will make only the normal HMG clips spawn and will just stop other ammo from spawning, setting this to "0" will make every ammo clip appear as a HMG clip.
The second one controls how many kills you need to get before a bonus is released. The default for this is "set maxstreak 5" but the allowable range is 3-9. I'm not sure what a good run tends to be so a little bit of experimentation is needed here.
