[AA] Gibbi Point pine trees displaying very low-quality LOD at short distances

[Tested on a fresh The Sims 4 folder, new save, no mods installed]

In Gibbi Point, particularly in one specific distric, the pine trees are rendering in extremely low-quality LOD models, even when the camera is quite close. This happens despite the game being set to ULTRA graphics. Other worlds that use similar pine trees do not have this issue, which makes the visual experience here noticeably worse.

It seems to be some kind of problem with the LOD configuration for these specific pines. This happens despite the game being set to ULTRA graphics. Other worlds that use similar pine trees doesn't have this issue.

What makes it even stranger is that along the bay coast, when looking out from the pier, you can clearly see these same low-quality pine trees. Yet, right next to them, there’s another tree and a different type of pine that display normally with a higher-quality LOD. The contrast is very noticeable (the low-quality ones are marked with a yellow arrow, while the ones rendering properly are marked with a red arrow).

Overall, the visual quality of this district in Gibbi Point is very disappointing. For players running the game on ULTRA settings, the graphics should look much better than this.

Recently, Lilsimsie herself noticed those low-quality trees while playing. At first, she thought it was just a delay in loading the higher-quality versions, but the trees never improved. She found it quite strange, especially since it was snowing, and the low-quality snowy LOD of those pine trees looks pretty bad when the camera is that close. She even commented that it looked really odd.
