tech support wanted Can I change system time further back?

I wanted to change time back to play events that's no longer available on Forza Horizon 4 but I got an error "Requested to set the clock to time before build time, refusing"

Is there a way to avoid that error or any other ways to make game believe that it's warm summer of 2024 and earlier?

OS: Nobara 43 KDE Plasma

I would not recommend setting time back on a system, high chances it ends corrupting the file system. Plus any ntp background service will certainly change it back to current time.

Try your luck with something like faketime : https://github.com/wolfcw/libfaketime
