@Dorabella123  If you want to make the effect disappear temporarily, just remove the snow cover.  Bring up the cheats console (cmd-shift-C) and enter "testingcheatsenabled true" without quotes.  Then shift-click on the ground and select Seasons > Snow Depth > None.  You can always cheat it back later.

@puzzlezaddict Thanks for that but I will live with it for now. I am playing a much smaller house in my neighbourhood and at first I thought it was all good - no missing bits - but then as soon as I turn the camera towards the road it happens. Not that there is any doubt but you are right about the road or footpath being the culprit. That also explains why I didn't see the glitch while my sims were at University as there were no roads near their dorm.

    @Dorabella123  That's a good point; I've been wondering why it took so long for people to report this issue.  But maybe it's more common to play with the camera facing away from the road and towards the back of the lot, and some worlds don't have that many roads.  And of course many people play with advanced rendering off.
