Simpsons Hit And Run Car Mods

[Daisy Hughlett]

Mods (short for modifications) are "edits" that can be applied to a video game by the user in order to enhance, change certain features, or in some cases add new content that isn't present in the original game.

Until 2013, modding in The Simpsons: Hit & Run wasn't popular in the sense that there wasn't a lot of content available that modified how the game behaved. The most popular edits of the game before 2013 being simple texture hacks created with Lucas' P3D Editor. However, with the start of Project Donut, the first major publicly released hack of Hit and Run, more documentation of how the game behaves has surfaced. Alongside this, Lucas Cardellini, the man responsible for creating the P3D Editor, has now returned to the modding scene and has created his very own launcher, which now allows players to play mods without overwriting any of the game's files.

Back in June 2007, Lucas Cardellini released a video on YouTube entitled "Main Textures Disabled in The Simpsons Hit & Run ". This marked the beginning of Lucas entering the Hit and Run modding scene, which marked the beginning of Lucas publicly releasing his tools, starting with Lucas Tweak (A now outdated program that is no longer recommended) and Lucas P3D Editor. These tools were specifically designed to edit Hit and Run and since then, have been used to create many mods for The Simpsons Hit & Run.

To Install Mods, you need to download Lucas' Simpsons Hit & Run Mod Launcher from the Donut Team website. Following that link will allow you to download the launcher as a ZIP archive. Extract the downloaded archive to a place that is easily accessible to you.

All you need to do now is open the launcher, select the path to your game executable, select the mods you want the game to load on start-up, and hit the "Launch" button in the bottom right corner. The game should now start with your selected mods.

The Simpsons: Hit & Run has a passionate and dedicated modding community that has been adding to the game over the two decades since its release, introducing new characters, vehicles, and even story missions to the game. Many of these mods take inspiration from various Simpsons episodes but allow players to imagine what-if scenarios, while other mods simply introduce fan-favorite characters. Mods are a great way to keep Hit & Run's virtual Springfield interesting, with new mods being released every year.

The Simpsons: Hit & Run is a popular open-world game from 2003 that allowed players to drive through Springfield as various Simpsons characters, such as the Simpson family themselves as well as Apu. It's fondly remembered today, with Simpsons: Hit & Run being the most wanted game remaster, and while other Simpsons games have been released over the years none have managed to equal it. With a solid mix of GTA-style driving and hilarious callbacks to classic Simpsons episodes, Hit & Run is an enduring love letter to the series that fans are still revisiting to this day.

Given so many players consider Hit & Run to be one of the best Simpsons games that have been released - as well as the fact few Simpsons games have released since - it shouldn't be too much of a surprise that it still has a passionate and dedicated modding community. There is even a modder working to remaster the game, while others are adding to The Simpsons: Hit & Run with map mods and story additions, allowing players to play as new characters. This helps make Springfield even more lived-in than before, enabling fans to extend Hit & Run's experience way past when the credits start to roll.

There are three mods available to players that let them play as new characters but do not give additional story missions. The first mod that introduces new characters is the Multi-Character Mod by Hadley Steel on Donut Team. This mod allows players to explore Springfield as Moleman, Krusty the Clown, Ralph, Ned, and Barney. An infamous Simpsons: Hit & Run bootleg may have one voice actor, but the Multi-Character Mod the character's audio from other games and various episodes. However, no additional missions are available with these characters.

The second Simpsons: Hit & Run character mod is the Additional Characters Mod by Donut Team and Yzma. This mod allows players to play as more characters, such as Annie Dubinsky, Crazy Cat Lady, and Sideshow Bob. Fat Tony and Kirk Van Houten are also available to play, and the two come with additional costumes. Like the Multi-Character Mod, this mod only adds the characters and doesn't feature an additional storyline.

Another mod that allows players to play The Simpsons: Hit & Run as a new character is called Meat Man. Players play as a slab of meat, running around Springfield and completing missions. This is a silly mod that adds no additional content to the game, but it is funny. Meat Man was made by Duffhause and is available on NexusMods.

While players wait for a potential Simpsons: Hit & Run remaster, a modder has added Chief Wiggum to the game. Wiggum is the stereotypical lazy cop who cares more about donuts than solving crimes and keeping citizens safe. On multiple occasions in the show, Chief Wiggum will take bribes to look the other way and operates on an outstanding level of incompetence. Love him or hate him, Wiggum is another popular Simpsons character.

For those who have a fondness for the bumbling police chief, a story mod allows players to play as Chief Wiggum. The story with this mod is that Fat Tony has stolen thousands of dollars from the Springfield Police Station, and it is up to Chief Wiggum to find and arrest him. The mod is called Cops: In Springfield by Colou and is available on on the Donut Team's website. If EA was to make a new Simpsons game, then it could do a lot worse than to take some inspiration from the Cops mod.
