|Description = The in-game HUD, inventory screen, and text have various extra pixels and black lines, around the edges, it is even apparent in Software rendering. Effects worsen if texture filtering is fully checked.
|Description = The in-game HUD, inventory screen, and text have various extra pixels and black lines, around the edges, it is even apparent in Software mode. Effects worsen if Texture Filtering is set to "Forced".
|Workaround  = Using the Wild Arms Offset hardware hack option fixes most of these but causes water and lava textures to stutter and loading bars to break.
|Workaround  = Go to Config > Video (GS) > Plugin Settings, turn on "Enable HW Hacks", go to Configure Hacks, and set Round Sprite to "Half".
