Plants/Trees stuck in Autumn mode??

[ Edited ]
★★ Novice

I've had this problem for so long now, all the trees/bushes/flowers/grass looks brownish/rustic and sort of like its decaying or stuck in Autumn. It was this way before Seasons and I thought maybe when I'll get the Seasons exp pack it will change, but nope. Still fugly brown color. 

 

So I tried:

  • Repairing the game via Origin.
  • Uninstall/re-install.
  • Updating drivers.
  • Playing without mods.

Nothing helped.

I have all exp/game/stuff packs except Luxury Party Stuff, my game set to ultra high graphics & my PC has GTX 1070, 16gb RAM, i5 6600k, asus z170h so PC is not the problem. 

 

Can anyone give me hope to change it? >:

Hi @Moonkittien

 

I've attached your picture directly to your post as tinypic have the tendency to get deleted over time. 

 

You can just attach them yourself in the future by clicking on attach file or on the image item in the bar.

 

Are your graphics drivers updated to the newest version ?

Yup, updated them a few days ago and still no luck >:

Can it be because I have aging off for all sims in Game Option?

I don't think it has anything to do with the game settings or seasons cause you had this before seasons. It's a de-coloration of some kind.

What settings are your graphics on ? Did you try changing those around ? (ingame) ?

You graphics drivers are from March. There should be newer ones so try updating those through either the Nvidia experience or the Nvidia site: http://www.nvidia.com/Download/index.aspx
