SRR2 is a cleaner version of The Simpsons Hit & Run with several changes, including C++ 17 support, x64 (WIP), and VCPkg for easier third party library installation. This is based on the source code that leaked in 2021, the end goal is to add more feature, improvements, and UWP support.

Installation

Note

Assets are too big to include in the repo, You can get them from (TODO) and drag and dropthem into the build folder.

I dont want to mess around with code I just want a build

The latest build for Windows can be found in the Releases page.

So visit the releases page and download the latest build it will be named something like SRR2-Debug-x86-2025.02.09-15.21.49-07cbce9.zip, The zip you downloaded will have one file inside it named something like SRR2-Debug-x86-2025.02.09-15.21.49-07cbce9 you will have to open this inside 7zip (or something else) too (dont ask why the workflow is WIP) once opened you should see bin-Win32-Debug this is where the main binaries are this can be extracted anywhere just make sure that you extract assets wherever you extract this.

tldr; download latest release, extract then extract assets over the build

I want to work on the code and create my own builds

Developer Environment

When working on the code you must have some things

Visual Studio (Install from Microsoft if not installed)
C++ Language Support (Check the Desktop development with C++ and Universal Windows Platform development options in the Visual Studio installer)
VCPkg support (When checking Desktop development with C++ make sure vcpkg package manager on the right side is selected)

Setup

Once you have the dev environment you will have to

Open command prompt where you want to clone the source code and run git clone https://github.com/3UR/Simpsons-Hit-Run
Open SRR2.sln with Visual Studio
Once in Visual Studio press Tools -> Command Line -> Developer Command Prompt
A Developer Command Prompt will open enter the following vcpkg.exe install --triplet x86-windows (Wait for this to finish it will install all required dependencies)
Once that is done you may need to run vcpkg integrate install

Building

After all of that if everything was successfull you should now be able to build any project in the SLN (If something went wrong above Create an Issue)

When building the main game project SRR2 it will be outputted in the build folder bin-Win32-Debug for example, once it is built before running make sure you download the assets and drag and drop them into this folder (The same goes when using the visual studio debugger make sure the assets are there before running the build).
