Death Match Map - Gangland Hideout

Here is a map I have been looking for, for a while, but didn't remember the name. Finally, I found it after loading maps from an old maps list.

The map is called Gangland Hideout and was made by ANM-Bulldog back in 1999.

It is a good example of an early custom death match map. It is a large, two level, map, set inside a gangster's hideout. It uses all default textures.

It has lots of different areas, ten player spawns and at least one of every weapon.

You can download Gangland Hideout (bddm1.bsp) from here.

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

Death Match Map Chinatown Brawl Revised

Here is a death match map I did back in 2005!

Back then I was asked to update the Chinatown Brawl map. The original Chinatown Brawl map was created by Sgt. Pepper and Racer(BSE) back in 1999. It's a good map but had only four spawn points so it badly needed some more.

I added six spawns so the map now has 10. I also added a heap of clip brushes so you no longer get caught on edges and corners. I changed some of the weapon and item placement and numbers, and tidied up some of the brushes and texturing.

Chinatown Brawl Revised is a small, claustrophobic map, with a tight layout. It has one main area with a metal tower in the centre, also a sewer and some small areas and corridors connecting to the main area.

You can download Chinatown Brawl Revised from here.

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

Bagman Map - Team Deck16

Here is an older Bagman map you don't see on the servers these days.

The map is Team Deck16 and was made by back in 2005.

It's a Bagman version of his Unreal Tournament DM map conversion Deck16.
This is a medium sized BM map with a fairly straight forward layout. The team areas have coloured floors signifying which team's area you're in (red for Dragons, blue for Nikkie's).

There are switches to open the safes (watch out for the slime) and lots of weapons and other items.

Kingpin At TV Tropes

Kingpin got a big write up at TV Tropes about all the tropes used in the game.

Though they get a bad wrap, a trope is just an element that shows up often in fictional works. It can be anything from the way certain characters behave, to certain plot developments, to common game mechanics. As a medium, video games often use story tropes from other types of fiction, but have also built up their own library of their own.

You can check it out here.

Windy City 2007 Death Match Map

I have been thinking about this map for about a week but couldn't remember the name. Finally, I found it by looking through some old mappacks. We used to play this map, and the older original version, a lot.

This version was done by and this is how he describes it in the readme:-

This is a remake of ^VaM^'s classic, WindyCity. The map's been given a complete and total overhaul, holds about a 15 player load with plenty of weaps and ammo. The map's designed to be seen with your fog setting turned on as it has thunder and rain sounds but no biggie, it works fine without it. Hope you enjoy :)

You can download Windy City 2007 from here.

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