Snake caves smoothing gone?

Ongoing issue, known bug.
I thought this "known issue" was fixed with issue 15's release. I know at least some of the edges in some areas were smoothed out then.
There was a case of the hill in Talos (I think) losing its smoothing, until people said something, and then (I think) WarWitch battered it back into obedience. *shrug*

Some outdoor smoothing was fixed, but in turn broke caves. We had a thread about it a while ago comparing pictures from test and live. I don't feel like looking for it now, but they SHOULD be aware of it. I believe BaB posted in the thread.

Ok this is good to know. I was beginning to think my graphics card was dieing. I'd made some new low level villains recently and all the snake caves had rocks all chunky shaped like gem stones (as in the OP's post/screenshots).

Haven't seen him since.

Live before the fix:

Test, including the Talos fix (currently seen on Live):

btw, it's ANY caves. Those second pictures were taken at an entrance to The Hollows.
Is it just me, or are the caves in Mercy Island, pretty much every single map that has Snakes on it, lacking a LOT of smoothing? The ground sometimes goes square, as do a lot of the rocks on the cieling and walls.
Running at full graphics with everything cranked up so...is it just a tad broken?
Examples;
Square roof;
Square floor;
