So I guess you can chalk this up to an oversight in inter-pack compatability.
Since you can MAKE it snow anywhere using Dr June's weather control machine, it should definitely not look like... that.
Oh man those perfect squares of snow UNDER those cars.

Hi @Materia9999
yeah, you're right. I shouldn't have tried to squeeze an answer in shortly before calling it a night after a very long day of answering posts but you don't seem to have understood what I was saying either. I wasn't sure if you were aware that the devs said the world doesn't have snow and I was saying, since it's not supposed to snow, I think this is by design as well.
Anyways, Let's start over with this.
There is probably a bug here cause the way I understand it, it's supposed to work like Oasis Springs. Oasis Springs doesn't have any snow settling at all, even if you you turn to winter.
I did some testing in my own game, It looks like, it changes as the blizzard is advancing. Took some screeshots from my game how it also looked.
So it depends how deep the snow is (I assume) and I don't think it's a general issue with the texturing or wouldn't it look like your pictures all the time ?
I do see those rectangles under the cars which is probably the same issue City Living had at the beginning with a blocky shadow: https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/FIXED-CL-Car-model-on-street-shows-black-rectangle/m-p/5687625
So, I see two bugs here.
- Rectangles under car (would be good to check if those also occur in summer as shadows)
- Snow applying in the world during Winter at all

There's snow on the lot. The snow cuts off at the edge of the lot completely. The non-snow-covered parts of the terrain have footprints of snow on them. You can make snow angels in the dirt. You can manifest snow pals from the dirt. There are blocks of pure white rectangles entirely underneath half the cars while the other half remain untouched.
I don't know how many times I can list those things before it's clear to you that there's obviously an issue here...That you managed to get deep snow working totally fine only makes it MORE obvious that there's an issue here but somehow you're wording it like that makes it less of an issue? The snow clearly does not work properly. I don't understand how you think it is.- 7 years ago
Well that's daft if it was intentional, you telling me in RL it does not snow in LA, EA honestly That's stupid, just fix your maps and game.

The rectangles under the cars do show in other Seasons as shadows and it's been that way for a long time, but I don't think they've always been so blocky looking as they are now.
