Huge image glitch crossing over several lots in San Sequoia

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.97.62.1020
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? All EP All GP EXCEPT Strangerville, Batuu, Werewolves. Wedding Stories, Tiny Living, Laundry Day, Luxury Party, Vintage Glamour, Movie Hangout Greenhouse haven, Desert Luxe, Fashion Street
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? I am not sure how it appeared. Please see images.
What happens when the bug occurs? In San Sequoia, several of the lots in one neighborhood have a large flat image that is viewable from one side, but if rotated from the other angle, it's not present. It is not visible from the world map view. I've tried bulldozing the lot, repairing the game, removing all the mods, uninstalling and redownloading all the packs.
What do you expect to see? No image obstructing several lots.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? Neutral/Not Sure

    @98fda21b82d9164d I'm not all that good with these kind of issues, but until someone more computer savvy than me turn up, please do try to update the drivers for your graphic card. To me it looks lika a graphic card/setting issue.

    Echoing Crin, this looks like world objects placed with TOOL. Did you maybe place them from another location using the X,Y values, lose them, then not click Undo? This is a really common error when using TOOL 🙂

    Thank you for responding. I only used TOOL once to put one object in Willow Creek.    I don't know what this object is though; it looks like a bunch of trees with a flat house.  So weird!

    In case anyone was interested (despite this likely being a very isolated event): I figured out that my residential lot at 13 Acacia Ave caused the image to show up in Parkside Place and 18 Celebration Way. I didn't use any TOOL on the lot, and didn't enlarge any tree/house looking things, so I'm not sure what caused it, especially since it didn't show up on the map or on 13 Acacia itself.  Once I bulldozed 13 Acacia, the image disappeared from the other 2 lots!   

    It was a downloaded lot from the gallery called 13 Acacia Ave, though I did renovate it a bit with some cc, and I don't know at what point it showed up.

    Ah that makes sense. The user must have placed those items whilst building the lot. You should report it in the gallery, it should be removed, edited, and reuploaded.
