Try adjusting your in-game performance settings.

Weell i think smoke is meant to be coming out of the biulding, if you look on the left, there is a chimney thing,

i think it may be your settings, have you tried them on low...:S

I sometimes have trouble with smoke on some games...:)

the amount of RAM you have in your computer may affect the performance. Try lower your graphic settings, lower the resolution if possible. although by doing this the game may look bad but perform a lot better
