Seems the map textures are not loading for some of you. There are several ways you can try to see if it fixes your problem.

-Make sure you have the latest RA3 game patch (V1.06)
-Download the latest drivers for your video card.
-Fire up your RA3 game and select the 'custom' user created map you want to play. If you still see the black spots on the map, shut down Red Alert 3, then restart it again and the map you had previously selected will still be the one selected to play. Fire it up and you shouldn't see the black spots. For some odd reason the textured don't load for some people, and this seems to work for most.

For most folks simply patching the game to V1.06 fixes the texture problem.
