I didn't notice this before until my sim went to Shang Simla just now. The last time my sim went there was before AMB is released and I remembered on that time, the ground wasn't supposed to look like that. All the game display options are maxed out and I've waited if the game needs time to load the textures but the ground still looks like that after three sim days. Anyone?

Hardware specs?

It looks like it is hanging in low detail mode.  Have you tried different vacation hoods to see if it is all of them?

Specs would help.

Similer issue to the missing terrain textures one I have had since a WA patch. If you have the same issue, the mod in the Pudding Factory section should fix it.

I'm sure my computer's spec is enough for running TS3.

ElectricSimmer: Does the mod only affect WA worlds? Because I've found out my custom neighborhood (Red County) also missing terrain paints.

EDIT: If I save a lot with my legacy family and move them to a new neighborhood (I read it is necessary in order for the mod to work), will the lot terrain paints changes to normal? Or will it be missing again because of same texture data carried from previously borked neighborhood?

Oh, the mod I was referring to only seems to fix WA worlds as far as I know. But i'll download Red County and give it a look (I rarely use custom worlds).

EDIT: Your issue seems to be different from the one I had. When removing the mod to check for graphical similarities, not even the footpaths show up, neither do the rocks. It seems you have a different graphical issue but I have no idea what it is. Sorry.

Thanks for helping. Maybe like the wizard said, my terrain stuck in low detailed mode even all the objects are in high detail already, I'll try to look for a fix about this.

EDIT: The mod didn't fix it, the option Enable Advanced Rendering did it. I have to enable it to gain the texture back but unfortunately, my counters will be glowing duh.
