Shore tiles graphic glitch

[volatile.memory]

After having changed exactly zero settings, one day the game suddenly decided to load with a bizarre shoreline graphic glitch

I'm running on a OS X 10.6.8, all graphic settings on high. I have tried changing various settings, running full-screen/windowed, etc. but the red lines keep appearing.

I thought I remembered reading something about this glitch a while ago, but Google and I have been unable to find anything on this issue.

Anyone here experienced this graphical problem?

The forum doesn't support .tiff .

I have to say that looks pretty strange. Partially like described in the red 'n white checkerboards thread, but not completly .

In general i'd advice you to turn down the graphical settings, just to see if this fixes the problem.
Can't really see what the cause could be .

Your graphics controller is starting to fail?

Nope. Other graphics-intensive games run fine, and no other video glitches I can recall.

I've tried changing settings, but to no avail. Won't go away.
