1.8.4

Swofty Launcher for F1 25 1.8.4 removes the frame hitches Windows players saw several times a second with Rich Fuel Mix on and as cars crossed the start/finish line. It also fixes Play refusing an EA app copy whose folder name has letters such as ö, ł or ü.

Performance

• The launcher checks that the game's memory is safe to read before it touches a car. On Windows, a check inside the game's large memory areas could take about 10 ms, and the per-frame car work used by Rich Fuel Mix repeated it four times a second. The answer is now kept for a few seconds and dropped when a session starts or ends.
• The same check in the lap-crossing guard no longer repeats for every car crossing the line within a few seconds of each other.

EA app

• Play stopped with The EA app has F1 25 in another folder for an EA app copy in a folder such as D:\Yeni klasör\F1 25, even though the game was never moved. The launcher misread the folder's name from the EA app's record, so the two never matched. It now reads it correctly, and a record whose name it can't read no longer stops Play.
