Just like I said. Yay!Game Overview:All is well in Springfield, until mysterious wasp-cameras start showing up all around town at the same tim. Jul 29, 2021 The Simpsons: Hit & Run holds a special place in many gamers’ hearts. It was the perfect combo of pop culture savvy and legitimately solid video game mechanics. Now, in response to support from The Simpsons co-showrunner Matt Selman, the idea for a remaster is picking up steam.

A fully combined map has been one of the most requested Hit & Run mods for nearly a decade, and thanks to some recent improvements with map editing tools and the release of P3DXML, it is now finally possible!

Features

All three maps are fully combined together - with functional animations, gags, and interactive triggers
New custom areas connecting each map together (mostly) seamlessly
A new daytime version of Level 3 (with other levels coming later)

Planned Features

A reworked version of the Vanilla Game campaign, designed to make use of all 3 levels.
Sunset and Nighttime variants of the map.
Halloween variant (maybe? don't count on it)

Changelog

1.0.7
- Fixed a missing piece of intersect collision in L3R5.
- Updated the Skybox model to be much less of a mess internally (this was mostly for my own sanity as it was incredibly hacky beforehand).
1.0.6
- Reduced the draw distance from 800 units to 500, which should (in theory) provide a much better balance of performance and pop-in. It might not help too much though, I'm not sure.
- Fixed the fence gate in L2Z1 using the wrong shader name.
- Fixed a piece of intersect collision in L1Z2 that overlapped with collision in L2Z1.
- Fixed a piece of intersect collision in L3R5 that overlapped with...itself.
1.0.5
- Increased the game's draw distance from 200 units to 800. This should heavily reduce the amount of pop-in present in previous versions.
- Made it so you can no longer see the road mesh through the bottom of the Springfield Stadium tunnel.
- Fixed the gas pumps at the Gas Station in Level 3 still using orange vertex shading.
- Reduced the vertex shading seams present on the grassy banks of the L2 - L3 connection, where the model boundaries split between zone models.
- Fixed a bug where the Casino area wouldn't be loaded when approaching from the Springfield Dam.
1.0.4
- Fixed some janky texture mapping/vertex shading by the entrance to the L1 - L3 connection.
- Fixed another piece of missing collision at the L3 Krusty Burger.
1.0.3
- Improved the vertex shading on the L1 - L2 connection.
- Fixed another broken phonebooth in L2Z3.
- Fixed a collision bug on the L3 - L1 connection.
1.0.2
- Fixed a single tri using the wrong asphalt texture in L3R1.
- Fixed a phonebooth in L3Z3 that didn't work correctly.
- Fixed Locator Type 3s in Level 3 facing the wrong direction.
- Hopefully fixed the fake L2 Skybox from not unloading when leaving the highway (it could potentially still happen if your load times are obscenely long).
1.0.1
- Fixed ambient NPCs in Level 1 not appearing in the correct spots.
- Also fixed a few gags that also weren't in the correct spots.
- Fixed some broken collision by the Krusty Burger in L3.
1.0
- Initial Release.

Known Bugs

Not all gags from each level are present, due to the game having a hard limit of 64. Those missing are:
- gag_bomb.p3d (Bomb outside Herman's Military Antiques)
- gag_ismv.p3d (Itchy & Scratchy Movie Ticket)
- gag_pig.p3d (Kamp Krusty Pig on a Stick)
- gag_sc_5.p3d (Willie Holding a Pig in the School)
- gag_tele.p3d (Observatory Telescope since, y'know, it is daytime)
This map contains considerably more Triggers than any of the base game maps, meaning that it is much easier to hit the Trigger limit (500) when designing missions. If you plan on making complex missions using this map, or encounter a crash as a result of having too many triggers, you should extend the limit using the CustomLimits hack.

If you find any bugs/have any suggestions to improve the map, please let me know! Since this is a resource for use in other mods I'd definitely like it to be the best that it can be.

There are many classic video games that fans want to see remastered, but some are more in-demand than others. One game that it seems many fans want to see get the remaster treatment in particular is the classic 2003 open world game The Simpsons: Hit & Run, which served as a satirical send up of the Grand Theft Auto games. Whether or not fans will ever see The Simpsons: Hit & Run Remastered remains to be seen, but a new study proves that demand is clearly there.

A study conducted by GAME looked to discover the most in-demand video game remasters. Using Google search volumes, trends, article engagement, and other factors, GAME discovered the video game remasters that fans want to see the most. The Simpsons Hit & Run was number 9 going by those metrics, but then GAME conducted a poll that saw The Simpsons Hit & Run earn a whopping 44% of the vote, far ahead of second place winner Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, which had 24% of the vote.

When one considers just how popular the Grand Theft Auto series is, it may be surprising to see a potential San Andreas remaster beaten so handily by the demand for a Simpsons: Hit & Run remaster. However, there's a solid explanation for why that could be. Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas may not have an official remaster available, but it is playable on the latest PlayStation and Xbox hardware, making it much easier for fans to experience it without digging old consoles out of the closet.

The Simpsons: Hit & Run, meanwhile, is not playable on any modern consoles. The closest one could get would be playing the GameCube version on the Wii or the PlayStation 2 version on a launch PS3, with neither option being all that convenient.

Another reason why The Simpsons: Hit & Run remaster demand is so high could be due to the ballooning prices of retro video games. A quick look at eBay shows complete copies of The Simpsons: Hit & Run retailing for up to $75 in some cases, so not only would anyone interested in playing the game need to acquire an old console, they'd potentially have to spend the same amount they would on buying a brand new, next-generation video game.

Simpsons Hit And Run On Switch

Of course, The Simpsons: Hit & Run and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas weren't the only in-demand video game remasters found by GAME's study. For those interested, here are the top 10 most in-demand video game remasters according to GAME's study (listed in order of least in-demand to most in-demand, not factoring in the poll results):

The Urbz: Sims in the City
The Simpsons: Hit & Run
SSX Tricky
The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Tomb Raider
Grand Theft Auto: Vice City
Bully
Red Dead Redemption
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 & 4
Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas

Whether or not The Simpsons: Hit & Run remaster ever materializes remains to be seen, but if it did happen, it would likely be met with much fanfare. Meanwhile, some of the other games listed in the study likely stand a greater chance at getting remastered, like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 and 4, for instance.
