  7. The problem is caused by highdpi screens and how recent Windows versions scale them. Since Windows internally tries to handle application compatibility for highdpi screens, it gives scaled resolutions to SDL2, which is actually severely low. This caused the game graphics to be absolutely @#$%, (for instance, the main menu buttons were stacked etc. for me on my screen). I noticed this when I switched from Linux to Windows. Interestingly there were no green glitches at the time. And then there was an update within the year 2020, (I can't be sure if it was Intel or Windows, since I did both at the same time), that resulted in this atrocity. I have reason to believe the actual glitches come from within Intel drivers because the game resolution is so much lower than the native one. I spent like two whole days trying to figure this out. I really wish I had seen this thread earlier, this information would have really helped me when I was randomly reading SDL2 docs and ancient SDL forum threads. There are 2 solutions, 1) Specify exclusive fullscreen (the oldschool kind literally nothing uses anymore because its drawbacks outweigh the benefits). 2) Specify awareness in the binaries which stops Windows from meddling with the resolution by scaling them or whatever, which means SDL2 can actually know the true resolution and draw the game using the true native resolution. #2 is what MS itself recommends. Unfortunately, both of these solutions require WFG devs and as an end user there really is not much you can do other than wait for A24 which hopefully will have this fix. Or apply this metaphorical english patch yourself I guess.
