Issue with new NAM & Grid Background

After following the instructions carefully, uninstalling the Jan NAM and installing the new June NAM, it appears that the dark-bluish gridlines background to the city is now gone.  Instead, it is now pitch black.

This wouldn't be a problem, but now this is causing issues with the graphics.  When I move the screen to different parts of my city, it will blur things together.  I'm guessing that the background texture file was somehow removed.  I really don't know.  In the Region View it looks normal.

Can someone please help?, because it is making the game unplayable because everything is smearing/blurring across the screen as I move around my city.

Go to My Computer > C:\ > Program Files > Maxis > Sim City 4 > Plugins

If the images for that aren't in there, then there you have the problem.

    Yeah that is the problem. I'm not sure what happened to those images. I tried reinstalling SC4 but it didn't put them back into the folder. Can someone send me those images? Perhaps post them here since they are just image files.

    Thank you so much! Now my game functions as normal!!

    I think what is happened as I deleted them when "completely removing" the NAM.  And my recycle bin was emptied shortly after.
