− | [https://tduworld.com/ TDU World is the first server project created and the most popular one. TDU World currently only has free-ride and instant challenges working and lobbying is broken to the point where you heavily rely on RNG to simply find a session. Although it was promised that there is going to be a major update for TDU World that fixes the lobbying issues, it has yet to be released 1 year later. (P.S. the update will have a very high chance that it will never be released)

Playing offline with online profile after official servers were shut down
The game launcher doesn't allow you to start the game in offline mode until you either disable your network connection, you have to do it each time you launch the game, or block the launcher using your firewall, which is quite difficult to achieve using default Windows firewall. Here is a workaround:
Instructions
|
- Go to
c:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\
- Open
hosts file using Notepad with administrative privileges
- Add these strings to the bottom of it and save changes:
# Test Drive Unlimited 2 servers 127.0.0.1 clientstats.testdriveunlimited2.com 127.0.0.1 patchserver.testdriveunlimited2.com 127.0.0.1 www.testdriveunlimited2.com
- Launch the game, get Error #01, press
Cancel , Play , then Yes to confirm offline play.
