1.5.13 ​

Swofty Launcher for F1 25 1.5.13 groups your addons into folders, backs up your saves before sessions that would drop an addon's careers, runs the new Progressive Career addon and fixes a crash with post-processing.

Launcher ​

  • The Addons page groups addons into folders: Built In first, one folder per category such as Seasons or AI, and folders of your own from New folder. Drag addons between folders, rename or remove your folders, and close the ones you don't need. See Folders.
  • You can sign in with Discord from the top right of the launcher.
  • Before a session whose profile leaves out an installed addon that affects saves, such as Progressive Career, the launcher backs up the profile save. When that session leaves the save at least 24 KB smaller, the Addons page offers to restore it, and swofty saves list and swofty saves restore do the same from the command line. See swofty saves.

Addons ​

  • Progressive Career is in the Addon Browser: a Driver Career that starts in any season from 2016 to 2026 as a real driver and moves through the real seasons, with each year's cars, liveries, helmets, team names, line-ups and mid-season changes. It needs Classic Seasons, which installs with it.

In game ​

  • The home screen no longer shows the greyed-out F1® THE MOVIE tile.
  • Local Multiplayer goes straight to Splitscreen. The LAN Game entry, which can't host a game in a modded session, is hidden.
  • Fixed a crash about 30 seconds after the game started when a shader pack's post-processing was on and no addon in the profile edited the game database.

Addon developers ​

  • An addon can add a settings page between its Driver Career tile and the new-career wizard (career_setup), with a CONFIRM tile that opens the season length step. See Add a career setup page.
  • An addon can add a settings tab to Team HQ for its careers (hub_tab), built from the game's own settings rows. See Add a Team HQ tab.
  • An option with hidden: true stays off the addon's page in ADDON SETTINGS; a career setup page or a Team HQ tab may still show it. See the manifest reference.
  • swofty::hub::hide_rnd hides or shows Team HQ's R&D tab while Team HQ is open, and the tab stays hidden when Team HQ shows all its tabs again.
  • Addons can subscribe to career.content.pressed.
  • Files an addon writes under swofty/addons/<id>/ through the storage API stay between sessions: they move to the launcher's data folder when a session ends and come back before the next session with that addon. Restore game folder and switching profiles keep them. See Between sessions.
