Hi there,

I have a problem regarding the trails you see below. Sometimes they are OK but most of the time I got this black and blue patterns under them. What causes this? I have the same problem with another trail set but can't remember the name right now. Thanks in advance!

I recognise the problem. I have the same issue with the farm trails of Chrisadams.

When I exit to the region (after saving) and return the paths appear ok again.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that Chrisadams stuff is in the water menu. When I try to plop something out of the water menu, the problem reappears. Again a quick save and exit to region does the trick for me.

Don't know if this helps you in anyway, but it's worth a try.

This seems to be the infamous Water Bug, which occurs when a lot with a visible overlay texture and a transparent base texture is plopped, and the Water menu is accessed.  An easy solution (at least for me) is to turn on the Zones Data View and then turn it off.  The problem should be fixed, unless you're experiencing a different problem.  I hope this helps, ivoignob.  :)
Find my power line BAT thread here.
Check out the Noro Cooperative.  What are you waiting for?  It even has electricity.

Thanks Metarvo.

That also works for me. Only I have to turn on the zone view and the click on another menu item like the advisor panel or so.
Simply turning the zone view on and off doesn't work for me.

Yes, it has to do with going in the water menu. And zone view on and off resolves the problem. Thank you both!  :thumbsup:
