Another Mapping Tutorial Added

Fredz has uploaded the video tutorial made by hypov8 on how to use the kingpin mapping tool Radiant to make archways in your maps. 

You can check the video out here.

Voodoo Generation DM2 Death Match Map

Many years ago [VG]Flashydave asked me to revise a map his clan mate had converted from Quake2. The map was VGDM2 (Voodoo Generation DM2). Of course I was happy to do so.

The map is a death match map and is set at the on top of a mountain where there is a small fortress. There is also a cave below the fortress and several nooks and cranies where you never know what you might find :)

It has twelve players spawns, has a mixture of standard and custom textures, has plenty of weapons and uses a custom sky.

I was reminded of this map as [VG]Flashydave has been playing with us again recently so I asked Monkey Harris to add it to the Newskool servers which he has done. 

You can download Voodoo Generation DM2 ver2 from here.

Coding Tutorials

Fredz has created some tutorials on coding for Kingpin.

The tutorials cover which tools to use and how to use them, how to remove single player code and even how to make a simple mod like midnight massacre.

You can find them in the tutorials section in the Menu under coding.

CTF Mod Client Files

We are thinking of playing the COLORS CTF Mod for this Sunday's game.

Monkey Harris is working on making it so you can download the required client files from the server but just in case I recommend downloading them from us here.

The client files contain maps, skins, models, backgrounds, sounds etc.

They are in a self extracting file and you just type in your kingpin location and the files will be extracted to the correct place.

New Death Match Map By Macanah

Macanah has converted another of his Quake 2 death match maps to Kingpin. This one is called Levels.

It has a similar style to his other Quake 2 map conversions so if you have seen some of those you know what to expect in this one.

You can downlaod Levels from here.

Shots from the game:-

New bagman Map Team Bite 2016

Me and Macanah have collaborated on a new Bagman map called Team Bite 2016. It is based on one of Macanah's Quake2 maps. Hypov8 also helped with suggestions and some nice tweaking.

It is a multi level, Quake 2 style, map set in space. There are a multiple of ways to reach the other team's base. The Dragon' base is on the top level while the Nikkies base is on the lowest level with the money drop in the middle level.

There are ramps and ladders to move between levels and jump pads from thee lower to the middle levels.

There are 12 player spawns for each team and you spawn in seperate rooms and then teleport onto the main map :)

It uses mostly custom textures (a couple made by Hypov8) and some custom sounds including two Cypress Hill samples.

It has been beta tested and the response was very positive for this map.

You can download Team Bite 2016 from here.

Wolf Male Player Model

Another custom player model that didn't have paths set up in the zipfile is the male wolf model. Just to reiterate, when path info is included in the zip it means you only have to extract the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct location.

So I rezipped the files and uploaded the model again.

This model was converted from Quake2 by {GT}Knight. As the name suggests it is a model of a wolf and all the weapons he carries are custom weapons. It has several skins included (different wolf skins , a fox, a cat etc) and I also included the extra snow wolf skin in the zip as well.

You can download the male wolf model from here.

Just extract all files to your kingpin folder.
