Odd Graphical Bugs: Textures are loading too slow after reload

[MadRat]

Two issues

1) Upon loading a saved game or starting a new one sometimes tile textures are lost or only half-rendered

2) railroad textures are - to a word - FUGLY they are barely differentiable from roads and in many cases they are not even the same size on adjacent tiles.

I had the same issues, but found them to be fixed upon correcting my Steam.exe settings whereas they default to a compat mode for file execution. I had read that it needs to read atleast Vista SP2 to enable the DX10/11 though I disabled the compat mode altogether and upon loading game with dx10 found many minor graphical issues to have been resolved such as Red an White checker board Tiles and these strange random Red blotches that resembled some sort of splattered resource. Hope that helps.

I am using Win 7 64. Neither steam nor Civ5 is running in compatibility mode for me and I am still getting the problem.
