The Simpsons Hit And Run Pc Car Mods Download
Mods (short for modifications) are 'edits' that can be applied to a video game by the user in order to enchance, change certain features, or in some cases add new content that isn't present in the original game. Until recently (2013), modding in the Simpsons Hit and Run wasn't popular in the sense that there wasn't a lot of content availiable that modified how the game behaved. Dec 02, 2016 So in conclusion, the modifications for The Simpsons Hit & Run are very cool, and gives the game an extra added value to it. As I said earlier, because of the game being one of my most favourite games ever, it makes the mods even more enjoyable! They make the game feel like new again, and makes it feel different to the original release. The Simpsons Hit & Run is an action-adventure video game based on the animated sitcom The Simpsons. It was released for the GameCube, Xbox, PlayStation 2, and Windows in North America on September 16, 2003, In Europe and Australia on October 31, 2003 and in Japan on December 25, 2003.
This is a sub-page of The Simpsons: Hit & Run.
Although technically not unused, as mods can bring them back up or an in-game cheat for the phone booth makes a subsection for these cars, and the fact that they are used by NPC racers in the bonus racing mini games, the following cars are never seen on the roads and cannot be purchased. Oddly, for unused cars, they can be driven by the player and have proper statistics like normal cars, hinting they were originally going to be used at one point in the game.
| Internal Name | Image | Description |
|---|---|---|
| redbrick | A little LEGO-like brick car. The 'engine' animates, with the parts moving up and down. It's script file calls it 'Red Brick V2.0' and also says '( now with more power! )'. V1.0 of the Brick Car was likely the similar vehicle featured in The Simpsons: Road Rage, with a much simpler design compared to this one. A cheat code can be used in the options screen to replace all bonus cars in levels with the Brick Car (such as the Monorail in Level 2):
It can also be obtained with the 'All Cars' cheat. In an interview with YouTube user Cleanprincegaming, the game's lead programmer, Cary Brisebois stated the vehicle was used to test the game. | |
| tt (cuda in tt.con) | A first-generation Audi TT. The game will crash if you try to enter it, so you'll need to destroy the car and then drive the wreck over a wrench pickup to properly drive it. It could have been used for testing, but this would be odd given that it was confirmed that the Redbrick vehicle was a test vehicle. It could also have been cut due to legal obligations. Oddly, despite all of the model assets being present, the CON file for the Audi TT, tt.con does not exist in the prototype of the game. | |
| CellB | A beige colored Cellphone Car. These different colored variants were meant for the Cell-Outs mission in Level 2, but the first one (CellA) is used four times. They also have different ringing and horn noises. | |
| CellC | Lavender Cellphone car. | |
| CellD | Lighter blue Cellphone car. | |
| CCube | A slightly vandalized cyan and grey van with boxes in the rear cargo. Quite possibly a placeholder car, as two trucks featured in-game (The cBone and Duff Truck) are simply re-textured versions of the car. Oddly enough, though, it is slightly taller than the other two trucks, and the yellow headlights are slightly different. The document 'THE VEHICLES OF HIT' found in one of the PR Asset Discs lists the vehicle under the 'AI CONTROLLED VEHICLES' section, proving that it was in fact going to be used somewhere in the game. | |
| Icecream | An ice cream truck for Phineas Q. Butterfat's parlor. The top of the truck has Marge's head and hair depicted as tall ice cream, and has a jingle of its own. It's not mentioned in the traffic data for any level, but it's speculated it might have been used for Level 1. | |
| SedanA | A sedan which it would've appeared in place of the School Bus in Level 1's traffic (as evidenced by its internal name right next to the string for the school bus). Judging by the name of the car, it's most likely a smaller variant of SedanB. The grey is also used in other traffic cars for coloring. | |
| WagonA | A station wagon variant of SedanA with a longer chassis and re-textured grille sticker, but sharing the grille and stock wheels. While not documented anywhere, early trailers and previews show that the car was originally intended to appear in place of the Glass Truck in Level 1. Despite it's name, it is the only station wagon in the entire game. |
Additionally, there is a Test.con, a testing handling file for a 'ferra'.
Hello and welcome to today’s blog on Stephen Niven – Mainly about video games! In this blog post I am going to be blogging about The Simpsons Hit & Run Mods, and my thoughts on these user-generated creations.
Before I start talking about these mods however, I should at least talk about what the original game is about. The Simpsons Hit & Run is a 2003 action adventure game that is based upon the popular animated cartoon ‘The Simpsons’. It was developed by Radical Entertainment and published by Vivendi Universal Games, and was released for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, Nintendo GameCube and Microsoft Windows. The game focuses around the Simpson family, who witness many strange incidents that occur in Springfield; such as security cameras and black vans. Please note however that the mods are only available in the PC version.
I first started to hear about these mods for the game a few years back now, and when I saw them (videos) in action, they looked really cool and intriguing – so I thought it would be a good idea to go out and buy the PC version of Hit & Run. I then tried to put some of these mods into the game, and when I did, I failed! (I wasn’t really clever at this at the time). I left it for a few years and that was that really. Then in the summer of this year, I went back to it, and had more success with it this time! It depends on what the mod is, but most of them that I have tried out are quite fun and spice the game up. Some include new missions and others include different character skins, and they make me feel like the game is brand new again. Also, I would like to quickly say that I haven’t experienced any problems in downloading these mods (such as viruses).
The game is one of the first PlayStation 2 games that I ever owned, so I’ve always had a nostalgia effect to it. It’s also one of my favourite games ever as well! Anyway, the best and most favourite mods that I have used to this day are the Donut Mod (by Donut Team) and Road Rage Returns (also by Donut Team). The first mod is currently at version 3.2.3, and is a ‘re-imagining of the original Simpsons Hit & Run story’. It currently features the first three levels, with brand new missions, cars and collectibles. The latter mod is currently at version 1.0.2, and brings The Simpsons Road Rage into Hit & Run. It includes 11 missions and all of the characters and cars that were in the original game from 2001. Speaking of Donut Team – they are a fantastic fan based community that have always brought out great new content for the game, and are also great with their followers as well.
So in conclusion, the modifications for The Simpsons Hit & Run are very cool, and gives the game an extra added value to it. As I said earlier, because of the game being one of my most favourite games ever, it makes the mods even more enjoyable! They make the game feel like new again, and makes it feel different to the original release. They aren’t too difficult to put into the game either! Finally, one other thing that I would like to mention at the end, is that you need to download a program called Lucas’ Simpsons Hit & Mod Launcher; as it is a tool which you need as it allows you to run ‘any well-crafted Simpsons: Hit & Run mod’.
