sims castaway stories water/ graphics issue?

Hi, I just reinstalled Castaway after years too. I'm having the same trouble with water texture. Just a big blob of blue with land underneath. I changed the 3 simpleterrains to false and now the underwater land is glitching and still no surface reflection or ripples. That didn't help at all.

I remember years ago (before windows 10?) there was a different fix for water textures in this game, but I can't find anything on the interwebs right now.
