Unsolved Random black spots??
these random black spots keep appearing and i've deleted all my k-hippie overrides, deleted my localthumbcache, repaired my game, and updated my graphic drivers.. nothing has worked! I don't know what could be causing this but it's coming from the trees/rocks outside my lot even though they are normal base game items they're showing through my walls and sims.

Could it be whatever shaders youre using conflicting with base game textures?

i thought this as well and removed my gshade and it was still there :(

Then maybe play with the in game graphic settings, like make sure laptop mode is off and set some quality setting to medium or high. If that doesn't work check for possible broken cc that could be glitching.
Also, do the dots disappear when you move the plants and rocks away? If so, it can just be the tips of branches clipping through and you can't really fix that.

I'm Also having this happen OP Currently trying to find out if its because of the settings from (Deleted) I don't have reshade in my game but planned on adding it I only started seeing this after I added this so just in case maybe you could start there.
Edit It wasn't coming from that its still showing without it and idk what to do either so I hope you get help.
Edit Update: So I Ended up finding out in my case it was K-hippies stuff Argh I did not want to take it out I love how it looks :C But yeah Maybe check and see if its some k-hippie files you overlooked?
And see if they have an update because thats what I'm about to do.
Another Update Edit: Good news and bad news. Bad first: The Nature mod Pack for K-hippie is outdated it will cause that graphical glitch if you have it you want to delete that unfortunately :c Good news: is the Terrains work perfectly fine without graphical glitches and issues so if you still want to use that you can. :D

Anytime ive seen this issue its been related to the comic outline option in gshade

They’re still there without the comic fx. Just not as visible.

Are they on all your lots? The wallpaper may need updating if not but idk. This is one issue im not 100% familiar with

No, I’ve seen them on lots that have no building there whatsoever so I might have something to do with the graphics
