In a recent post on r/WutheringWaves, user u/thedjzihan shared a surprising performance observation regarding the game's texture packs. The player, who typically uses the HD pack recommended for their Intel Arc B580 GPU, decided to switch to the UHD pack following a recent update. Contrary to expectations, the UHD pack provided a significantly better experience and visual quality. The user noted that with 2x Frame Generation and Ray Tracing set to low, they achieved a constant 150+ FPS, describing combat as "butter smooth." They also increased shadow, foliage, and LOD settings to Ultra High without compromising stability. Additionally, the player mentioned their total game size is 130GB, contrasting this with another user's report of 108GB after cleaning resources and old files. The post also included a request for a current banner live wallpaper video link. This anecdotal report highlights potential optimizations in the latest update that may favor higher-resolution texture assets for specific hardware configurations, though broader community consensus is not yet established.
