Cheers man ,i have 1.05 from last year ,haven't logged-in in a while and lost my old login .
edit:
Ah ,i think one of my addons is blocking images from appearing though i can see that screenshot pic in your comment above.
edit2:
Yeh ,Privacy Badger addon is the culprit.
No worries, glad you got it sorted

The mod is really great, but everytime i try to enter the car in the third mission after collecting the medkit in the scholl the game crashes.
That's an issue with a pirated copy of the game that is very broken and (for some reason) very common. I can't really help you any more than just telling you to buy the game on eBay or Amazon.
Hello
I have a problem with the mod, when I start the dialog before the mission the game stops and the dialog does not play.
The quoted post is unavailable.

I think this should be what you want for both this mod and Cops: In Springfield.

Thank you very much for your help
Today marks 5 years since Storm Over Springfield's release, which is...kinda crazy to think about honestly. In those 5 years I feel I've improved a lot as a modder, and in retrospect there's a lot of things in this mod that I feel could have done better.

That's why today I'm happy to announce that I'm releasing a massive update to the mod - version 2.0! This has been in development for about 3 years now, and there's a lot of stuff that's been changed/improved to bring the mod up to a standard that I'm happy with today (though I tried not to get too carried away with changing stuff - it's mostly cosmetic).

Changelog:
  • General:
    • Made the mod decompilable.
    • Added checkpoints to every mission.
    • Made new models for every costume.
    • Made new models for the following vehicles:
      • Ned's Geo Metro
      • Duff Blimp
      • Orange Station Wagon
    • Improved the model for the Pontiac Astro Wagon.
    • Replaced the models for Lenny, Carl, and Louie's cars with the updated versions from Cops: in Springfield.
    • Replaced the model for the Family Sedan with the updated version from my standalone 'Roofed Family Sedan' mod.
    • Improved the damage model for the Family Sedan.
    • (Slightly) improved the hood texture for the '79 Honda Accord.
    • Tweaked the stats in the phonebooth to be more accurate to the actual vehicles.
    • Improved the model for Principal Skinner.
    • Replaced the custom model for Superintendent Chalmers with a modified version of his model from The Simpsons Game.
    • Fixed a line of dialogue for Chalmers that was mistakenly removed.
    • Converted all custom audio from RSD to OGG.
    • Updated the ambience sounds to loop better, and also replaced all outside ambience sounds rather than just one.
    • Replaced the old Beta Tester collector cards with new collector cards featuring storm-related items.
      • The old cards were pretty poorly written and also very out of date for...various reasons, so I figured it would just be easier to replace them completely rather than trying to fix them.
    • Made all hit-and-collect missions have mission-specific 'Item Dropped!' text. Previously, only M5 did ('Duff Dropped!').
    • Improved the radar sprites.
    • Replaced the Mission Fail screen sprite with the updated version from Cops: in Springfield.
    • Added a message to the 'View Movies' screen and the 'Game Stats' page of the Scrapbook (since they don't work as intended).
    • Probably more stuff that I forgot to write down!
  • M0:
    • Removed the crappy custom icons I had made for the Kwik-E-Mart and Grocery Store.
      • These were some of the very first things I made for the mod, and I was originally planning on making custom icons for every building (for some reason) but never did. As such, I figured I should probably just remove them since they're...not very good.
    • Made the trigger for the Grocery Store less finicky to hit.
  • M1:
    • Reworked the mission to make more sense to a casual player.
      • In the original mission, you had to follow Jasper around in the Bonestorm Truck until he stops - the reason being that Jasper is the driver of the Bonestorm Truck in the original game. However, it occured to me after watching some casual playthoughs of the mod that uh...99% of people aren't going to know that. So, I've reworked this segment entirely: now you need to follow a trail of elderly people's items to find the Retirement Home Bus, and follow it until it stops (and Jasper gets out). I think this makes much more sense.
    • Made the trigger for the Community Center larger.
    • Replaced the awkward workaround to add Grampa to your vehicle at the end of the mission with an ASF Passenger command.
  • M2:
    • Improved the model for the burlap sack.
  • M3:
    • Improved the sentence mixing in the starting conversation (it's still not perfect, but it's a hell of a lot better).
    • Made the first aid kit inside the school use a smaller model.
    • Made the stage for driving back to the Flanders' house use the HUD icon for the house, rather than Ned (the icon for the house didn't exist when this mission was developed, hence why it wasn't used).
  • M4:
    • Made the trigger for Lard Lads larger.
    • Adjusted the dialogue for when you arrest Snake.
    • Made Snake appear in the back of your car after he is arrested.
  • M7:
    • Made this mission no longer a forced car mission (since it's no longer reguired to be).
    • Improved the fog effect drastically by adding more layers.
    • Disabled peds and parked cars during the mission.
    • Disabled jump cameras during the mission to prevent a visual bug with the fog effect.
    • Made it so that the tornadoes de-spawn upon cancelling the mission.
    • Made it so that your vehicle's position is reset after both dialogue stages to prevent it being destroyed during the conversation.
    • Changed the route that Smithers takes to hopefully reduce the chances of a softlock occurring.
    • Reimplimented some unused tornado spawn points for the Smithers chase (I think I just forgot to add these originally).
    • Replaced the vanilla game's broken key model with a fixed version.
    • Made it so your car is automatically repaired when you enter Burns' Mansion, to prevent bugs that would occur if your car was completely destroyed.
    • Replaced the awkward workaround to add Bart to your vehicle at the end of the mission with an ASF Passenger command.
      • This should hopefully fix the strange teleport bug that sometimes happens in this part of the mission.
    • Made the music for the ending of the mission 'Never Trust a Snake' as opposed to 'Bart 'N' Frink', as I feel it fits better (and is also just a better song. Dunno why I went with Bart 'N' Frink in the original).
    • Reworked the final tornado chase significantly to better reflect my original plan for the mission (due to vehicle limits I was unable to do this in the original mod).
  • BM:
    • Made it so that starting this mission during the M7 premission correctly causes traffic to spawn (previously it did not).
    • Made the trigger for the second Krusty Burger less finicky to hit.
  • SR2:
    • Replaced the dollar bill collectible with the one from Cops: in Springfield.

I really hope you enjoy it!
I made a livestream about this 2.0 update right as it got released (yes, that was a big coincidence) youtu.be/TnvNSRJQwIk (at 38:41)
When i talk to lisa at the start, the game crashes and i canĀ“t do nothing.
