1.7.11 ​

Swofty Launcher for F1 25 1.7.11 finds more Steam saves, explains more crashes and fixes several of them.

Saves ​

  • The Steam save is found when the game is in a Steam library on another drive. The launcher looks under the Steam install's userdata, which it finds from the library's owner, the registry, a running Steam and the usual Steam folders on every drive.
  • When the launcher can't find your Steam save, the Saves page says so, with buttons to import again, choose the folder yourself, or play with your Steam saves.
  • Every session logs where the game's saves come from and each career slot the game read. Send Logs lists them in a Saves section.

Addons ​

  • A damaged addon storage marker is repaired instead of stopping the launcher, and one addon's storage error no longer blocks Play.
  • Team logos build when another addon shortened the logo arrays, and the build log has one line for each reason a logo was refused.
  • Built textures are checked, and textures the game may reject show as warnings in the build log.
  • team.garage art is off by default after crashes in the game's texture streaming. SWOFTY_GARAGE_ART=1 turns it back on.
  • A round at a track with no track data, such as Paul Ricard without its addon, no longer crashes Team HQ's standings or the R&D table. The round shows no track.
  • An era box picked for a Grand Prix or Time Trial no longer carries into a career.

Crashes ​

  • When the game can't write in its own folder, the crash report and loader log go to state in the data folder, and Send Logs picks them up there.
  • Device-removed diagnostics also turn on after the newest crash report shows the graphics device was removed.
  • SWOFTY_D3D_DEBUG=1 turns on the D3D12 debug layer and logs its errors to loader.log and the crash report.
  • Send Logs includes the EA app's logs and the Windows Application event log entries that name F1 25, EA's anti-cheat or the EA app.

Launcher ​

  • The launcher no longer lags when you switch profiles or type: the Saves page loads in the background.

DB Editor ​

  • Calendar explains that a career orders its rounds by each event's date, and the build log names rounds that a lower Events count drops.

For addon makers ​

  • session.end and session.unload fire. See Events.
