Dark Pool Objects???

Hello,

I am experiencing a strange problem with my pool objects, they go a darker shade as if its night time but its day time.

I notice they appear underground when I go into the basement and they're in the same spot as they are above ground.

It happened once so I got rid of the pool, rebuilt it and placed my diving board and waterfall, they were not dark. When I put the game in live mode, they went dark again.

Is the game thinking they're underground? I have no idea what to think.

Forgive me, I don't know how to insert a photo so here is a link to a post that has the same problem:

    have you checked the settings in the options as occasionally when a new EP is installed they get reset to default ( as for the waterslide appearing under i have that too)

    Thank you for relpying! But I'm not to sure what I can change in my settings to make the objects the shade they're supposed to be.

    And I understand the slide appearing underground, but the diving board and waterfall too? Doesn't make sense.
