How to Fix Wuthering Waves Error Line 258 / 671

Understanding the Error

Many players have encountered Error Line 258 / 671 in Wuthering Waves. This issue is often due to the FidelityFX Super Resolution (FSR) setting being enabled by default, even on unsupported hardware.

Step-by-Step Fix

Step 1: Download SQLite Database Editor

First, download a SQLite Database Editor. SQLite Browser is recommended and can be downloaded from the following link:

SQLite Browser Download

Step 2: Open the Config DB in the Editor

Open SQLite Browser and navigate to the following file:

Wuthering Waves Game\Client\Saved\LocalStorage\LocalStorage.db

Note: If the game is installed in Program Files, run SQLite Browser as an administrator to save changes.

Step 3: Edit the Database Values

  1. In SQLite Browser, go to the "Browse Data" tab.
  2. Open the GameQualitySetting value, which is in JSON format.
  3. Locate the key named "KeyFsrEnable" and change its value from 1 to 0. This disables the FSR setting, allowing the game to run.
{
  "KeyFsrEnable": 0
}

Optional Adjustment for Low-End PCs

To improve performance on low-end PCs, adjust the resolution:

  1. Change KeyPcResolutionHeight and KeyPcResolutionWidth to 800 and 600 respectively, or to a resolution that suits your needs.
  2. Save the changes by clicking on File > Save Values.

Additional Tips

Tip 1: Fixing 65% Loading Stuck Issue

If the game gets stuck at 65% during loading, try setting a lower resolution as mentioned above. Sometimes, patience is key—waiting for a few minutes may resolve the issue.

Tip 2: For Further Optimization

Explore other settings in the database to further tweak the game's performance for low-end PCs. More detailed configuration might be necessary for very low-spec systems.

Tip 3: Using SSD for Faster Load Times

If possible, install the game on an SSD to reduce load times significantly.

Common Issues and Troubleshooting

Database File Not Found

If you cannot find the LocalStorage.db file, ensure you are looking in the correct directory. The typical path is:

[Your Installation Directory]\Client\Saved\LocalStorage

Make sure file extensions are visible in Windows to correctly identify .db files.

Blank Data Tab in SQLite Browser

If the "Browse Data" tab is blank, double-check that you have opened the correct database file. Sometimes, a restart of SQLite Browser or a recheck of the directory path can resolve this.
