donut is an open source reimplementation of The Simpsons: Hit & Run written in modern C++ and modern OpenGL.

You still need to have the original game assets in order to use this.

Clone the code using: git clone --recursive https://github.com/plowteam/donut.git

The simplest way to obtain all the required dependencies is through vcpkg.

PS> .\vcpkg install sdl2 bullet3 openal-soft fmt
Linux:~/$ ./vcpkg install sdl2 bullet3 openal-soft fmt

If you don't want to use vcpkg; CMake will fallback on installed system dependencies, or manually specified package directories.

• Install Visual Studio 2019
• Install CMake

You can either:

1. Open the donut folder directly in Visual Studio.
2. Or generate project files with the following:

cd donut
cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$VCPKG_ROOT/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake -DVCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET=x64-windows

Note: These instructions are for Ubuntu, but can be easily applied to other distros.

Ensure you have dependencies first

sudo apt install cmake
cd donut
cmake -S . -B build -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$VCPKG_ROOT/scripts/buildsystems/vcpkg.cmake -DVCPKG_TARGET_TRIPLET=x64-linux
cmake --build build -j 5

Mesa drivers on Linux: if you are trying to run with Mesa drivers and are getting issues with OpenGL context try messing with MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE when running like so: MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.3FC MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=430 bin/donut
