Neighborhood view from lots - broken?

[Clifford]

Hey guys ,



As you can see, thats my problem:
The neighborlots are showed but the trees are only seen ~ 1 m away from the lot although i placed some near the rocks.
My graphic settings are all on 'high'.

So is it a problem with my game or with my settings?

Thanks for your answers,
Cliff

I think that's just how the trees work in lot view. I also have everything on the maximum settings and still only see the trees that are close to the lot. I guess that the game might slow down too much if it had to render 500+ trees (which is not really an unreasonable number for a fully decorated 'hood)? Or maybe we both missed something.

The interesting fact is that i had The Sims: Life Stories installed and there wasnt a problem like this. Also, I remember this annoying thing started when i installed Seasons i think. Before that everything was okay >>
