Generate Your Own Download/Update URLs

Important: You must have Python: https://www.python.org/downloads/ installed to run py file.

1. Download WuWa_Manual_Download_URLs.py.

2. For predownload:

   Edit the py file: change release_ch = "default" to release_ch = "predownload".

3. Run the py file.

4. Two files will be generated:

   1. wuwa_[version]_bigpaks_urls.txt e.g. wuwa_2.0.2_bigpaks_urls.txt:

      Contains update files' URLs.

   2. wuwa_[version]_bigpaks_hashes.md5 e.g. wuwa_2.0.2_bigpaks_hashes.md5:

      Contains update files' hashes (MD5).

5. By default, only pak files with the size of >= 100 MB will be included inside the generated files.

   You can set output_bigpaks_only = False inside the py file to include all files (including non-pak files).

6. URLs and hashes inside the txt and md5 files respectively are sorted by size (top: biggest; bottom: smallest).

Manual Install

1. Download and install Wuthering Waves launcher from official website:

   https://wutheringwaves.kurogames.com/en/main

2. Open the generated txt file and download all pak files listed in it.

   Hash checking (optional; for checking corrupted download):

   • Put the generated md5 file together with the downloaded pak files.
   • Use hash checking software e.g. OpenHashTab: https://github.com/namazso/OpenHashTab to open the md5 file for hash checking.

3. Right-click Wuthering Waves shortcut at desktop > Open file location.

4. Create this path (subfolders) inside the opened folder: Wuthering Waves Game\Client\Content\Paks.

5. Copy/Move the downloaded pak files into Wuthering Waves Game\Client\Content\Paks.

6. Open the launcher > Click Download. Checking game resources will be displayed.

7. The launcher will check for the downloaded pak files' integrity and will download the rest of the game files (around 1-2GB).

Notes:

• If you use OpenHashTab for hash checking, be aware that there is a display bug where:

  • There are many files listed inside md5 file.

  • Some of them do not exist inside storage.

  • OpenHashTab will list all hashes as The system cannot find the file specified.

  • The hash checking is still happening, as evidence by a sharp increase of disk usage.

  Just wait until the disk usage returns to normal, which means that the hash checking is complete.

Manual Update

Basically similar to Manual Install, except:

1. Overwrite existing pak files with the downloaded pak files after the update is live (can check with the launcher).

2. Update the game with the launcher.

Hey! Found the script. It works for Generate the Download link files but unfortunately downloading those files a bit Tricky. It asks you for a key which IDK. Also the URL won't as Kuro have switch to a new Launcher system. So you will have to replace the URL as well

I have updated the API link.
But in the future, it is better if you use other wuwa downloaders such as
https://github.com/yuhkix/wuwa-downloader
I don't play the game anymore, so i'm not aware of any changes made by Kuro.

slt,, jai executer le script et avoir les fichiers generes. Cependant lors du telechargerment des .txt, il y s échec
