The update also brings two new cars to the game, the Hyundai Rally and the Volkswagen Polo Rally. These cars are the most recent additions to the pinnacle of the sport and they are the perfect way to round off our Early Access programme.
The Winter Wonderland update also sees the introduction of Steam Workshop support that allows players to share Car Setup & Force Feedback settings. You can find a guide for this here: DiRT Rally Service Park - Guide You can get started with settings from our simulation team here: Developer Service Pack
We’ve also made improvements and refinements made to Global Leaderboards and League support.
Here’s the rundown of other stuff that’s new this month:
- You can now tune your immersion levels by customising your OSD options, choosing between On, Countdowns Only and Off.
- The Logitech G29 wheel is now correctly listed in the controller preset menu.
- Custom Championships now reward you with the correct number of credits.
- There’s a new EULA to sign when you boot the game, which asks you to kindly behave yourself when you’re playing with others.
- Your favourite pet mouse has learnt a new trick, and can now change the livery on your car.
- If you own an Owner’s Club event, you will now correctly own the Owned achievement.
- If you pledge a wedge to an online Wager Event and the event ends while you’re on stage, we’ll give you your CR back.
- Your Oculus Rift can now be toggled to lock the horizontal orientation. Look for a flag in the hardware configuration file.

- Your Service Crews are back from their training course and will now correctly setup your car for multi-location events.

-
Kick_Up will now politely and calmly inform you if your wheels fall off, and if you’re going the wrong way.
As ever, please stop by the forums and let us know what you think of version 1.0 and how you think we did in early access. We couldn’t have done it without you!
