If you look at the Google earth image of Royal Sydney you will see two sheds.

In Links you can go into practice mode go to hole 9 and take a walk around, you may even see a couple of tractors near there.

In Australia most of these sheds will be made of steel sheeting, usually coloured.

Oh, yes. Now I see them on google earth.
That's ok. I was worried there was something wrong in my PC.

It is generally pretty obvious if you have a Links problem on the PC, they are rarely subtle.

Thanks for the feedback. Really nice mate.

It is the greenhouse to the RSGCs very own small turf farm that runs parallel to the tee area. There’s some turf machinery planted around the area.

It’s not untextured. It actually has a really nice shade cloth texture. The stripe effect is caused by the shadows of the trees that are planted in front of it. Took me ages to work that out during the design - drove me a little bonkers at the time. Another APCD quirk.

I could have fixed it by adding new trees without shadows. But I was already conscious of the file size so decided against it. The trees in RS are all large files.
