I would like to know how I can setup my own server so i can have my friends play with out time limits and be able to change settings when I want? any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance, John

Hi John,

Here is an indepth guide to setting up a Kingpin server using the monkey mod.
It covers setting up a dedicated server using the monkey mod.

If you don't want your friends to have to use the monkey mod client then just don't uncomment this line - //kick dirty' in the comp.ini (all explained in the guide).

If you don't want a timelimit then make sure all the timelimit options are set to 0 - set timelimit 0 (again it's all explained i nthe guide).

It might look complex but if you follow the step by step instructions you should be able to successfully set up a KP server running over the internet that your friends can join.

Alternatively, if you just want to play with friends, use GameRanger.

No dedicated server setup, no port-forwarding with routers, no fuss. Just host and play.

If you want, you can click Game Options before launching and change various settings with an easy GUI window.

Brilliant! I'll be giving this a shot for sure!
