Sons Of The Forest. Intel ARC A770 16gb. Missing ground (landscape) textures

Hello. I don't have landscape textures in Sons of the Forest. I don't know where to write and what to look for. as I have tried many ways to solve this problem and none of them have helped to make a landscape texture. Only the texture of the landscape is missing, everything else like grass, stones, water, etc. is there and does not cause problems.
I am writing here because I have an Intel Arc A770 16GB graphics card and I saw that there were similar cases with owners of video cards of this series, but I never figured out the solution.
Here are the ways I tried: reinstalling the game, verifying the integrity of the file, different startup settings, different graphics settings in the game, different compatibility modes, increasing the size of virtual memory, running on the latest graphics card drivers 32.0.101.6559, running on old graphics card drivers, running with HDD and SSD, deleting the configuration file from the locallow folder, running as administrator, rebooting the PC, etc.
I have a resizable bar enabled. The computer meets the system requirements for a comfortable gaming experience. I have Windows 11 installed. However, the texture of the ground (landscape) still does not appear.
Note that this texture is not in the menu (but it is not particularly noticeable either). When you start the game from the first frames of the cutscene, the texture of the landscape is present and looks good. Immediately after this scene, when the protagonist turns to his laptop, the textures of the landscape begin to gradually disappear until they completely disappear and then no longer appear.

I found a solution to the problem, at least on my computer. I don't know which specific item helped, because I turned them on immediately and started the game. But I'll list all the ones I've done. (although I think the first point probably helped, but I'm not good at this, so I can't say for sure). 1. Enabled high performance mode in the Operating system Settings. I followed the path: in the start menu - find settings - system - display - graphics - I found "Sons of the forest" in the list and set "High performance". 2. I went to the Intel Graphics Software application - made a profile of the game "Sons Of the forest" - went to the "Display" item in the game profile - selected the "GPU Scaling" mode. 3. I went to the "Graphics" item and turned on "Adaptive tessellation" and unscrewed it by 100% (just in case). These three points are the only thing I've done and it's helped me. All the other methods I used didn't help, and after using them, I returned everything to its original state. I wrote my own solution because I couldn't find an answer anywhere on how to return textures. I may have made some unnecessary points and more experienced people will correct me. But it helped me, and I hope it will help others as well. Good luck to you.
