    Does ISI still have servers for rfactor 1? I just installed on my new PC and when I try to find servers, it says matchmaker is down. Is that permanent? Or temporary?

    In the web of rFactor (https://www.rfactor.net/) says
    Code:
    - Is the rFactor ISI matchmaker down?
    rFactor is now Steam-only. Server listings are available in the Steam client. Hosts need to be using the Steam version for it to show there. IP direct connection is always available, and most leagues use that.

    Good morning to the forum, I publish this topic here because I have not found information on the internet and I would like to see if someone here with knowledge can help me. As some of you may know, the rfactor matchmaker stopped working a long time ago, I have VPS available to set up a server and I would like to know if it is possible for this VPS to host a matchmaker for rfactor rfactor

    As it is written in the Post of @lagg : "IP direct connection is always available", so yes, it should be possible.

    If no One will answer anymore, just try it out, then you will see if it works. :)

    Who owns rf1 ?
    ISI still or MSG, either way it would be nice to see some developer take on rf1 and do a lot more to it, would still have good potential.

    Steam says that the developer and publisher is ISI.

    I'm not sure how hard it would be to create a matchmaker. Maybe someone understands what that would involve, I have very vague memories of an alternative matchmaker at some point but I don't recall any details.

    Last I knew Dave Stanley or NRT Servers was running the rF1 Matchmaker for free, if that helps.
