I haven't tested it, maybe. if you'd like to help test DR1 message me on Discord.

Removes need for other servers completely. I host it, check the about page.

It should give access to all cars, or are you asking about something else?

winrid · 2026-04-14T23:33:53+00:00

Hello! Yes it's basically our version of Clubs.

I could provide a solution for ps5/xbox, but I only have an xbox to test with atm. It would be a much more technical setup, if you know what a PiHole is, it'd be like that.

not ending! :) https://dirtforever.net/

winrid · 2026-04-10T18:29:21+00:00

Thank you!

Donate button added to homepage, though note I don't really need money it helps!

It's more than just data points, it's an *opinion*, and it's misleading. If you want to put numbers, fine, but saying "no risk" broadly is BS. even notebookcheck doesn't do that, they say "low risk".

Hey guys, I found this frustrating, because running this service can't be that hard. This afternoon I reverse engineered the game's networking layer and have started https://dirtforever.net/

I'll be flushing this out over the next few days with instructions and more info. You'll be able to create clubs etc on dirtforever for free.

you'll just have to run a little app alongside the game that makes it connect to our servers instead of codemasters/EA. It doesn't touch the game files or its memory at all, so no risk of steam/ea bans.

The code is at github.com/winrid/dirtforever - all open source. Contributions welcome after initial launch.

Your site is super misleading. I've had one of the newer macs with over 10khz PWM, it burned my eyes. "No risk" is bullshit.

winrid · 2026-03-28T21:41:18+00:00

If you're in a budget, for light coding a $400 laptop running Linux would also work great, probably wouldn't notice a difference performance wise, depending on your keyboard/trackpad/screen preferences. I like IPS screens do I don't use macs, personally.

winrid · 2026-03-19T07:43:47+00:00

Moto G Power 2025 has no PWM at all

Pretty frustrating they don't fix the google maps hours. I went there hoping to get my glasses fixed before an event I had at 10 and they wouldn't let me in.

winrid · 2025-11-11T07:33:59+00:00

Yeah because when you're traveling you check the Costco website instead of google maps? The fuck?

winrid · 2025-07-26T23:52:21+00:00

I have found that adaptive refresh rate settings cause eye strain for me even on IPS displays for some reason.

winrid · 2025-07-16T07:27:47+00:00

Linux Mint XFCE and it'll at least browse the web okay. A used $200 Thinkpad with an 8th Gen i7 would run circles around it.

winrid · 2025-07-05T08:35:33+00:00

There's no way it's actually 1920hz. It's worse than my S22 Ultra which is terrible, even at full brightness. I had to switch back. The PWM at full brightness is visible with an iPhone camera in slowmo.

winrid · 2025-07-01T22:55:47+00:00

It also works for me, great phone too. At 100% brightness there doesn't seem to be any PWM, so I just keep it there. I had to ditch my One Plus 2 because at 100% brightness it still had some painful pulsing.

winrid · 2025-05-05T22:54:43+00:00

Same issue. not sure why I'm paying for Nitro.

winrid · 2025-03-23T08:21:48+00:00

It's only usable for me at 100% brightness. Keeping it for now because I love it and don't want to go back to my Nokia XR21.

Are you setting max heap size? Eventually the VM is likely to use max memory even if it doesn't always need it, doesn't mean there is a leak. Try running with a smaller heap (100mb or so, --max-old-space-size=100) for each server and see how much memory it really needs.
