1.5.5
Swofty Launcher for F1 25 1.5.5 fixes the crash on Choose Driver in a new Driver Career, the crash on Braking Point's difficulty screen and a crash on Classic Seasons boxes. Large profiles install much faster, and Play checks the free space first.
Fixes
- A new Driver Career no longer crashes on Choose Driver.
- Braking Point no longer crashes when a difficulty is picked.
- Pressing an addon season box no longer crashes after switching between Time Trial and Grand Prix.
- A mod's database removals skip the records community tracks add, and the build names the mod. The game crashed at startup when a mod removed them.
- The build repairs a track's AI pit lane that has no passing space, such as Autopolis'. AI cars crashed the game in that pit lane.
Launching
- Play checks the free space on the game folder's and the data folder's drives before installing and says how much the profile needs. A drive that fills up during the install gets the same message.
- Large profiles install much faster, and the launcher keeps waiting while an install runs. It stopped after 10 minutes before.
- Mods load when Swofty Launcher was started with a Windows compatibility setting. The launcher no longer passes
__COMPAT_LAYERto the game or the EA app. - When F1 25 can't write in its own folder, the mod loader logs to
state/loader-fallback.login the Swofty data folder, and the launcher says why. It blamed antivirus before. Send Logs includes that log. - A blocked offline play download says what usually blocks it: antivirus HTTPS scanning, a VPN or proxy, a network filter or a Wi-Fi login page. It no longer suggests a manual download.
Addons
- Post-process passes run on every frame. Some frames, most of them in garages, skipped them before.
- Career Mode Editor 0.3.0 needs 1.5.5:
- A driver who takes a seat in Driver Career signs that seat's contract. Before, the team showed one driver short. Sign their seat contracts on the Contracts card repairs careers an earlier swap left that way.
- Undo works for seat swaps.
- Race numbers can be changed, the player's included.
- A planned weather intensity stays within the game's range.
- The editor names a game version it doesn't support.
