The ground disappeared in Evergreen Harbor.

I left my mods disabled after the pre-cottage living update and made a brand new save. I dropped off my sim on a lot in Newcrest and went to manage worlds. I edited a few lots in Willow Creek using the new pond tool. Then I went to Evergreen Harbor and found that with any lot I loaded into the ground was gone. Not the ground on the lot but the neighborhood ground.

I went back to grab my sim and had her travel to Evergreen Harbor and the problem was gone. I sent her home, went back to manage worlds and returned to Evergreen Harbor and ground was still there, but only in the area I sent her too (Port Promise). Went to a different area (Grims Quarry) and the ground is gone. Send my sim to Grims Quarry - ground is back.

So I made another brand new save, dropped off my sim in Newcrest, and went to manage worlds and went to Port Promise - boom, ground is gone again.

Loaded back into first new save, ground still there.

Restarted the game, ground still there.

Odd.

Apparently fixed by going into live mode in each of the three neighbourhoods in Evergreen Harbour. Shouldn't happen in the first place though.
