F1 2018 F1 2018 Updated: V1.05 Out Now on PC - Console to Follow

Paul Jeffrey · Sep 3, 2018

Formula One 2018 by Codemasters has received another update, bringing PC, Xbox One and PS4 consoles up to version 1.05 by the end of the week.

Released to PC today, with PS4 to follow on Tuesday (4/09) and Xbox One by the end of the week, the new update to F1 2018 has arrived, and with it comes a reasonably substantial list of improvements and fixes. Of particular note from the changelog released today, the new build focusses on some critical multiplayer issues that have cropped up since the game released last month. Addressing crash bugs and various online functionality issues, plus some useful tweaks and enhancements to the core game experience, the new build is certainly a nice step forward for what is a very impressive new title from Codemasters.

You can check out the full build notes for version 1.05 of F1 2018 below:

General

Interviews – Option included to turn off or extend the interview timer – you can find this option in Preferences -> Gameplay Settings -> Press Interview Time Limit.
Fixed an issue where race fuel load was insufficient to finish a race after using the race strategy practice program in a restarted practice session – NOTE: This fix will only apply after you go to the next Race Weekend. You may also have to complete a Race Strategy Practice Programme for it to take full effect.
PC – Fixed issues with Thrustmaster T300 wheel.
PC – Game now works with AMD Phenom CPU’s – (without the need to use the Beta workaround) NOTE: These CPUs are below minimum specifications to run the game and are therefore not technically supported, so you may still experience some performance issues.
Updated the Abu Dhabi tyre compound selections.
Fixed a crash when fast forwarding an instant replay.
Re-balanced Medium Traction Control Settings.
Fixed an issue where AI team mates could become stuck queuing in the pit lane.
Updated the Baku track map to include all DRS detection zones.
Improved game stability and various other fixes, including fixing the most common crashes on PC and PS4.
Fixed a crash that occurred on the last corner of Shanghai.
PC – Fixed an issue where resolution changes cause partial black screens during cut-scenes.

Multiplayer

Fixed an issue where hosting a lobby after leaving a classic race resulted in some players being locked to soft tyre compounds
Fixed an issue where a dedicated spectator who is a client can get de-synced information for pit lane status in the position list
Fixed a crash when spectating qualifying sessions
Improved game stability and various other fixes

Just a request guys, I have set up a poll on the codemasters forums about this change, so the devs can get some clear data on what people want with regards to the medium TC. Right now its just people voicing their opinions on it on multiple different foums which isn't really helpful for them. So if you like the change or don't, it would be really appreciated if you could head over there and vote!

An update from Codies on the medium TC. They listened! Hotfix should be live, I just downloaded and tested. Works.

If you want to keep the TC as it was at 1.4, you don't need to save it now. The patch will update the game but keep the TC as it is now. And if not the hotfix will then be applied. You shouldn't need to do anything now.
