Good to know. If your Mac is underpowered you need laptop mode enabled unfortunately.

And you have the highest possible water setting in the graphics options?

Under the Reflections drop down what setting is it on? Could you also post a screenshot of where a reflection is missing?

The most frustrating is the oceans:

I only have this one lot where, weirdly, the pool has reflection !

Maybe it's because the pool is small...Capture d’écran, le 2019-06-22 à 09.55.19.jpg

I see reflection in the ocean and the sun is at the wrong angle in the second one, look at the diving spot.

The bottom picture is lovely - gorgeous build!
