This may be best set for Technical Support, as it isn't a widely reported/spread issue.
That being said, without more information about your computer it will be incredibly hard to help. Texture corruption usually relates to your graphics card/adapter. I would be quick to suggest possibly trying a different version of driver for you video card, however with the mention of needing to repair the game every time it lessens that as being a likely cause of the error. If the data is constantly becoming corrupt, that could be the result of a failing HDD or a really terrible anti-virus (the likes of which hasn't been seen since the early 90s).
i found a link to my laptops specs lol
Making sure that the drivers are up to date may help. In some cases, choosing an older driver has been found to help as well.
But none of that would explain why you would have to repair the installation every time unless your hard drive is failing.
im not very smart lol but im in the graphics control panel what exactly should i do >-< I found something that says refresh rate assuming thats what you were referring too but its a drop down box with only one setting >.< ill make sure my drivers are up to date now and get back to you
edit: appears to be up to date
To rule out needing to repair the installation everytime, can we go a few times between and make sure that the game closing is enough to resolve the issue, because it may place us on the right track.
I know that Intel has a long standing issue with some of the shaders that this game uses, as well as it's textures. It may be worth while to go into the game settings and adjust all graphics options to their lower settings, as well as making sure shadows are off.

next time it crashes ill make sure i dont repair it and tell you how it runs afterwards. my graphics are also already at the lowest
it might be worth mentioning my pc is running on 32 bit xd... i have a lot of memory error crashes but idk if its why my textures glitch out q.q hope not v-v
That being said, it wouldn't be a bad thing to get a little more RAM, but at the same time to take advantage of it you would need to install a 64 bit operating system.
Would you mind sending a screenshot of the issue, or a picture if you can't capture it on the computer when the glitch happens?
hvent been on mabi tonight but as soon as it happens ill be sure to take a picture but for now ill explain it in more detail?
typically after a while of playing my textures mess up sometimes the wrong texture will be in a place (for instance my cherry blossom tree in my homestead had the texture of like.. what appeared to be candy hs items or something similar? o.o) or like yesterday a weird white line was on top of my screen.. most commonly though my characters clothing will all disappear and anything under the clothing is transparent as well lol and will flash along with other characters. after ths happens i know ill crash shortly especially if im moving the camera around/moving ect but the error is like "mabinogi has stopped working" when its a memory error is says somethign like "not enough memory" and closes.
and also im really slow when it comes to computers as i said before so i would probably need the guide/manual if you really think its my ram q.q;; i ahve no problems with other games just mabi v.v except for the occasional memory error which i still think is my 32-bit system
This may be responsible for the graphics corruption, or it may not. With my experience using a 2-in-1 to play Mabi for a little while during travel, I would venture to say it is not likely to be an issue with 32-bit in and of itself. The specs of your laptop are greater than that of my portable which has an Intel Atom with 2GB RAM.
It has been my experience with Mabi that it is very taxing on system resources, while not being seemingly so. It is an inside joke amount myself and friends that Mabinogi is a better tool for testing an overclock than anything else out there because if there is any instability, Mabi will find it and crash. It is not an error tolerant game at all.
I've seen the issue that you're describing previously. I had a laptop with a 3rd Gen i5, and recall seeing that happen once or twice. I can't recall if it was the upgrade to 16GB RAM or drivers that ended up putting a stop to that. It's been several years now.
