The Simpsons Hit and Run leaked source code

I would have expected a flurry of activity given the cult popularity of this game. It was leaked on 1st June according to github. Does anyone know if there has been anyone working on this trying to make it run on modern computers? Very fascinating!

Not based on this source code, but on the original assets, 'reubs' made an Unreal Engine version of it.

Sounds like it'd be such a fun project to modernize the game, I wonder how quickly Activision will DMCA any such attempt though.

You can already run Hit & Run on modern computers - I'm playing it here on an ultrawide monitor full-screen with 5120x2160 resolution. All you need is to download "Lucas' Simpsons Hit & Run Mod Launcher" and enable a couple of compatibility checkboxes and off you go.

The source code had already leaked at least 2 years ago.

See this reddit post for instance: https://old.reddit.com/r/SimpsonsHitAndRun/comments/pa2ecc/s...

Hulk from the same studio leaked too back then. Even had some PS2 sdk versions in it.
