Text Graphical glitch in Harvest Moon: A Wonderful Life

[Kotk]

Whenever I load up the game, the game boots up correctly, but the text is all messed up the point where it is unreadable, just a bunch of grainy looking squares. I am using Dolphin-3.0-win3 2, if anyone knows the reason this is happening, please help!

You should probably mention your hardware specs.

Oh, My specs are Intel(R) HD Graphics for my adapter (graphics card?) , and the backend is Direct3d11 (I don't use my computer as a hardcore gaming computer, so I have no idea what they are) but none of my other emulated games do this.

Just as well you don't it's not a gaming machine and Intel HD is kinda poor

Depending on the rest of your specs in general GameCube and Wii emulation is going to be too high end for you to start with, maybe a few low end games will run ok but you may find higher demanding games to be unplayable

Anyway you can check out https://dolphin-emu.org/compat/ for individual game fixes ect but I can tell you that game runs fine on default settings
and https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/guides/performance-guide/ to get the most out of dolphin in general

Some speed fixed can have downsides one being graphical issues that I have a feeling is the case this time or is just the graphics chip set

Asides from lower end games and emulation, that graphics chip set is aimed at PC users for the internet and video playback it's not really intended to be for gamers though lower end games should run fine as well as emulation depending on the CPU as a lot of emulators are CPU hungry rather than GPU (Graphics Processor Unit) modern games use both graphics and CPU older games may only use Basic Graphics chip set support but most big well known PC games are very 3D graphically enhanced and would run poorly on Intel HD if at all
