@lcsoloman1 The look of the beach lot may be due to one of your low graphics settings, whether advanced rendering or something else.

The terrain paint not applying is a known issue on all Macs running the 64-bit version of Sims 3. If you want, you can click Me Too and post in this thread:
@lcsoloman1 Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner. I couldn't reproduce this issue on my Mac, which doesn't say a lot since I have different hardware, and I meant to test on another Mac but never got around to it.
Anyway, it would be helpful to have a couple screenshots of the issue you're seeing. There's still a possibility that some graphics glitches get fixed by EA, but documentation is critical. It would be great to be able to pair your deviceconfig with a couple of screenshots of what you see in-game. You can put the game in windowed mode (cmd-return) and use cmd-shift-4 to capture the section of screen you want to show.
