I've noticed form some of the screenshots from people on the forums that they have flowers and "cobbled" paths that look nice, but I just get grass and a brownish line for roads. Anyone know what I can do, or if I can do anything?
I think its your graphics card. If you want flowers and paths and things, try turning the quality up on the options menu. If thats too laggy, you might need to upgrade
I used to have fur and the cobbles but no flowers. In 1200x 900 if I went down to 1024x 768 then I could have flowers.
Just a balance between resolution and detail for your graphics card( optimised drivers can help lots here), assuming the rest of your system can keep up.

My new system everything maxed out the game is stunningly good for a now older game.
I can play newer games (than BW2) at 1024x768 or whatever at like 80FPS, but BW2 is still... 10-30 at best in 800x600 And I can SEE everything, but how do you even play at 1200x900 with this game? ;;
I don't any more I upgraded over Xmas I now play at 1680x1050 max everything the game is beautiful now.

I say nothing about your set up. But B&W2 is hungry in a lot of situations.
