Hi Tree - that does not look like a normal thing, it's most likely related to the VMWare video card virtualization system.

One thing you could try is to go into the VMWare video card emulation settings and increase the video memory that is available to virtualized programs.

That may be labeled as "Vram" in the settings. If it is set to a value less than 128MB, try setting to 128MB.

It's possible that with a low amount of video memory available, MoI may be switching to use some lower resolution textures which could exacerbate some rendering artifacts.

Do you also have Boot Camp available? My guess is that if you run under Boot Camp you would not see that problem.
