Gaming leaks and decades-old development files continue to make their way online, appearing suddenly in the form of anonfiles.com uploads. While it's no Nintendo Gigaleak, the latest upload will likely catch the attention of many, as it's the source code for The Simpsons Hit & Run, a well-loved licensed game that fans have been demanding a remake of for years. Posted to 4chan, the folder supposedly contains documents pertaining to the game's development cycle and marketing from Radical Entertainment, alongside the full source code. According to posts, users have been able to successfully compile the source into a playable copy of the game, running on a Windows XP virtual machine.

The leak could possibly lead to fan-made ports to more modern platforms or detailed mods being made for the game. An extensive modpack for the PC version of The Simpsons Hit & Run called Donut Mod has existed for years, while just last week, another fan created an Unreal Engine remake of the first level from the game, complete with Ray Tracing and AI-upscaled graphics.

I love this game a lot. I can't imagine we'll ever get a remake of it, given that it's a licensing nightmare and is tied up with Actvision, but this could be the next best thing.

Love this game, but knowing how greedy activision is, I don't see a remake ever happening.

Lol can't wait for this to get ported all over the place now

Mega CD 32X port when?

Love this game, but knowing how greedy activision is, I don't see a remake ever happening.

It wont just be Activision but also Disney, the latter of which eats your childhood nostalgia like they’re at an all you can eat buffet.

Can't remember, but Disney owns the simpsons don't they? Disney as a company completely redefines the meaning of the word greed.

They do, which is why I brought Disney up.

You should see what they’re doing in the parks, they’re now introducing paid fast passes.

[Blakejansen]

What potential projects could people accomplish with this code?

 

[Crazynoob458]

i cant wait to see really cool stuff with this

 

[SuperDan]

Sweet port it to Vita & I might be able to try it out myself

 

[fvig2001]

I just hope they can either loosen the timer or allow it to be disabled because the timer is so strict. I hope they can add better lighting. I also hope modders can add more costumes.

This post kind of makes me want to replay the game with all the latest donut mods.

I think it was hit and run where a friend and I spent a late night session that involved timing it so that Reverend Timothy Lovejoy Jr jumped out of the car when you were right at the top of the escalator to nowhere & hear him say "I feel closer to god".
