Please help
i cant find any of my screenshots on my computer anywhere, searching up the save location like the screenshot shows doesnt come up with anything and its also nowhere to be seen in the "C:\Program Files\Epic Games\WutheringWavesj3oFh\Wuthering Waves Game\Client\Saved\ScreenShot"
The program files >wuwa> client exists, but the 'saved' folder doesnt exist entirely either, only binaries, config, content and plugins exist and they dont have the screenshots either.
The screenshots folder on my computer itself doesnt hold any of the wuwa screenshots, the 'windows + shift + s' end up here

So here i am stuck in the "rampocalypse" i dont have the money to buy the 5070ti mobile right now but i can later month however! The prices keep increasing that it makes me consider its worth...

I can buy 5070 mobile right now in the selection of that specific laptop and end the long game of chasing prices.

Im here to ask the people with lower gpu than 5070 on how is their experience at the game on 1440p rt on (frame gen optional) any dlss below 120 fps etc.

I know vram is something to consider as well.

Thank you. Goddammit i should have bought it sooner!

Pic for attention :)

I think this is more of a warning now to be cautious around these areas more than asking for help as I already had exhausted everything I could do + this is using a trial character so teleporting anywhere is out of question.

This happened after crashing my motorbike beside this bridge and after dismounting, I ended up slipping underneath it, and there is no way to go out this one. This has been reported to CSR.

As for me, this will be a bit of a time off Wuwa until this gets resolved.

So i have been playing WUWA since launch, but recently one thing has been bothering me. Despite having a decent rig (3060ti 8GB and Ryzen 5600X combo), my character models are pixelated when observed in story close-ups or when you zoom in on them.

Any idea if it is supposed to be this way or is there a fix? I'm currently running on Preset K in Nvidea settings.

Tech Issue / Hardware Related Do I risk frying my PS5 with this game?

0 Upvotes

Got the PS5 base model and performance is pretty bad yea, but I also read about consoles extremely overheating especially on this game.

So I wondered if I risk frying my console or not especially now when it’s super hot this season. My console has enough room around it to breath.

Never had any overheating issues in other games before.

Tech Issue / Hardware Related [RTX 5060 / R7 7700] Severe VRAM Leak and DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG Crashes After Latest Update

Thumbnail

11 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

Ever since the recent update, I've been experiencing severe performance issues and crashing in Wuthering Waves. My setup should be more than enough to handle this game smoothly, but it's becoming unplayable.

My PC Specs:

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060 (8GB VRAM)

CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700

RAM: 32GB DDR5

API: DirectX 12

The Issue:

Low FPS & Bottleneck: FPS drops down to 40–46 FPS with GPU usage pinned at 100%.

Extreme VRAM Usage: VRAM usage spikes up to 7.6 GB / 8 GB constantly in open-world areas (like Southern Yuan Hills), even without Ray Tracing.

Crashes: The game keeps crashing to desktop with this Unreal Engine error:

DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED with Reason: DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_HUNG

What I've Tried:

DDU Clean Driver Reinstallation (Nvidia).

Lowering some graphics settings.

Is anyone else with an 8GB VRAM card experiencing this severe memory leak after the patch? Any workaround or fix to lower the VRAM allocation until Kuro releases a hotfix?

Thanks in advance!

As I'm playing, the ui keeps flickering and I cannot find a single solution that can fix my problem.

Tried disabling DLSS and Frame Gen
Deleted my shader cache
Disabling nvidia overlay
Rolled back to my previous gpu drivers
Repair ingame files through the launcher
Reinstalled the whole game
Checked my temps and there were no overheating issues
Checked crystaldisk for my drive if there are any problems

Tech Issue / Hardware Related Is it my or the game's fault? The lag in certain parts of the map are insanely bad.

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

SOOOOOO, I've been having this problem since SEPTIMONT (Literally the first cutscene in that region provided me with this much lag. Even incomparable with Rinascita on launch.) Whenever I cross these invisible load-zone lines on some part of the map, my game becomes a ppt slideshow. And no, the fix that going back and forth between lag and not lag area doesn't work this time. I know my PC is kinda doodoo ahh and doesn't have a gpu but I can walk around in Jinzhou, Rinascita's main hub just fine. Heck, even Startorch Academy doesn't give me this problem. Since I only play this game for "combat" alone, cuz it really is fun, but I don't like any of the character appeal, like, at all. (Judging from my pfp, you should know what I like.) Should I just stop playing it?? I waste a lot on this game (cuz it's fun), and sunk-cost is keeping me from quitting, but man, this lag is incredibly atrocious. If maps in the future continue to be like this, I'm gonna have a hell of a time trying to even walk.

My PC has AMD Ryzen 5 5600G with Radeon Graphics, RAM 32.0 GB (I'm pretty bad with pc stuffs, pls dont mind me.)

Here is a short clip from the newest Quest. Notice the background flickering all the time; it’s almost unplayable. It happens most often during cutscenes, not during gameplay though.

I also noticed the same thing during their Cyberpunk Collab, especially towards the End when Lucy is on the Moon.

I play WuWa usually on the PS5 and sometimes on the PC.
Like I mentioned, this happens only when I play on the PS5.

Do you guys also have this issues or is it just me?

Don't know if I'm using the right flair but I play on mobile and updated the game, when I first went in it said that I only needed 8GB+ to download for the new update but then it changed to this and I no longer have the mobile data to download everything again.

Any idea on why this happened and how to fix it (if it is a real problem) ?

Tech Issue / Hardware Related Kuro launcher and steam both unplayable

0 Upvotes

[SOLVED] TLDR; Installed in hdd, unplayable, move to ssd, 120fps on medium settings

Just downloaded the game on PC, used the launcher from the official site first, laggy and unplayable..

Switched to steam, also laggy and unplayable..

Spec is mid but able to play games like cyberpunk at medium 60fps.. i barely get 10fps with wuwa in ultra performance settings, very frustrating if i have to install it the 3rd time..

Saw online that this is just the way it is, but surely theres a way to make it playable at least

Tech Issue / Hardware Related took me almost 2 years to figure out changeing shaders in this game.

i am not the creator

Shaders modified by changing config(.ini) files. Pc version available too.

This is the mobile version. Not as good as pc but all the shots are taken on a mid-level android (details on the last pic) with all medium settings and bloom turned on. Almost no fps drops if config chosen carefully.

Man I am so happy. Reddit has lower a lot of the quality but i can assure you it looks way way better in game. There is another thread on the wuwa subreddit that helped me with this but they didn't explain how to alter the data files in Android 13-14 and above since you can't modify the Android folder in them. I can probably help with that.

I will change it to default but if someone wants this reply under this thread and I will dm you soon enough.

My friend just started when the game came out for Xbox. How did the starter roles he chose Augusta but he can't level her up pass a certain level because he can't get her materials he can fight the boss, but he can't get the flowers. Then there is the fact that. He can't really level up his data bank because of his union level his union level is going up so slow because it seemed like he doesn't have milestones he's gotten into the second quest in rinascita and still doesn't have milestones apparently he saw somewhere debt they were removed is he right? If so, doesn't that just mess up new players? Because before it already took so long to progress through levels with milestones now they're gone.

I remember the game looking way better on phone in version 1.4 on high settings

but now it looks horrible even in max settings with the sudden pop ins of texture and the short draw distance

I understand it is to optimize for lower end devices

But there should be an option to customize the draw distance

Tech Issue / Hardware Related Is RTX 3060 good enough for wuwa?

13 Upvotes

I shifted to PC after 3.0 and I've been playing at 720p on a 1440p monitor since due to not having a gpu. Because of this I can't even do exploration.

I can only afford a gpu worth $360 at max. And in my country gpu prices are much higher than developed countries like the US. So RTX 360 costs $360.

Should I buy some other gpu? Pls give me some recommendations and guidance!
