Problem with missing maxis props

[columsail 1]

Hey, this may be a dumb question but I am not very good with cocmputers.  But recently I have noticed that all of the original maxis sim city rush hour lots are missing their props.  This has only happened with the buildings that come with the game.  All downloaded lots are fine.  Any ideas?  An example would be on the medium flower garden all I see is the leafy life surface with the walking paths.  There are no trees, or flowers or whatever else is on that lot.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Either you have a download for flora (bushes, etc) that has interfered with the standard ones, or something has been stepped on.

If you have been downloading textures, start by taking them all to a folder on your desktop and out of the game.  If that fixes your problem, you have a conflict.  In that case, you have to add them back one at a time until you find out which one it is.

If this is not the case, I suggest you have a file that has been stepped on by some other application.  You'll have to reload the game.

I had this exact same problem. I read on here and someone said to adjust the graphic settings in game to the highest setting and the problem was solved for me.
