For this kind of issue it is always better if you could post a video and activate the coordinate in Dev Mode so that other users and devs can try to reproduce.
Just did a quick test around dallas fort worth but did not notice any issue with trees.

Here is the best I could do givin the upload size limitations. I sped the clip up so and trimmed it down. This is near sherman texas. I’ve been flying in texas in the sim for years and I’ve never seen anything this bad. Seems like It started after the city update came out even though aI never installed the update. This is with 300 TLOD and ultra trees. I’m assuming this is a server issue because I’ve wasted the entire weekend trying everything I could think of to fix this.

Heres another sped up clip. This is right over KTRL east of dallas. You can clearly see how pooely the trees are loading in vs fading in from further away. This is only happening in reagons that were affected by the city update so I feel the team should be made aware because this is pretty nasty to look at when flying along. And This only affects trees. Procedurely generated Buildings are still loading in correctly at the appropriate distance.
