I was playing Mabi and my colors started going all weird. Black was yellow, red was grey, grey was black, etc.

If it were a desktop I would assume loose monitor cable and wiggle it to fix the problem.

But this is a laptop. How2getcolorsright?

I think your client borked, did you restart?

No, it crashed after I posted this. I assumed it was a computer problem not a Mabi problem. Lol.

When the client is left on for long periods of time, graphic cards tend to go haywire and stuff starts getting weird on mabi and sometimes your whole screen as well. Usually my client crashes after mabi graphics goes crazy for a while. Hopefully it's just another case similar to this since restarting the client and/or computer fixes it, and not a hardware failure for you.

Other stuff include:

- missing limbs
- incomplete rendering of items

Come to think of it, I did notice a guy with really weird hair, it was like red and black and made of boxes. xD
