I made few buildings and the problem is when you are a few meters away it start to fade like in pictures above, when I'm near it start to show as it should.

I think you need to increase the models' LOD distances.

I'm trying to open new routes between buildings ,but there are parts of the map that if you go through, your car and everything around disappear for moment .

This is most likely due to occluders. Occluders are basically simple meshes used to cull everything fully occluded by them from the current point of view. To fix the culling errors, you need to delete the offending occluders. However I'm not aware of a tool for occluder visualization which makes them difficult to find.
One option is to completely purge all occluders in the mission. This is a quite workable solution as modern'ish machines can handle the resulting increased rendering workload well.
Alternatively you could filter the frame list in MWE to only show occluders (by enabling the Type filter and setting it to Occluder), walk the resulting list, use Jump To to teleport to the occluder's position and check whether this puts you near the affected location. The problem with that approach is that the mesto/freeride missions have quite a bunch of them (~250) so it might be bit of a chore. |

I think Boz' 4ds Manager allows you to edit the render distances for the individual LOD levels of mesh objects.  You can find it in the Downloads section. |

| I haven't personally used it yet so I'm not sure to be honest. Going by the screenshot in the downloads section I guess you need to open the model and then activate the Objects tab. It probably lists all frames in the model and lets you edit the draw distance for the individual LOD levels of I3D_object (and more derived) frames. |
