Whole town is bright yellow-green

★★★ Newbie

Hi! I just got Island Paridise yesterday and the first time I played it it was fine, though it did randomly crash. Anyway when I went on it later my whole town was this really unfortunate shade of bright highlighter yellow. The roads and paint-on textures are fine in the town, but anywhere where it would be just normal ground is that gross color. It's really annoying for obvious reasons, though I did laugh at first just because of how ridiculous it looked. But no matter how funny it is, it's also really frustrating. Any suggestions?

 

Extra info: I'm not sure if it's just that town and file or others too. I hadn't checked yet. Also, if it helps, I have no stuff packs but all other EPs, though it started when Island Paradise was installed. Thank you for your help and time! Standard smile
