Particles are the last texture to load, and they take forever.

This is purty, ain't it?



Particles are the absolute last thing to load still, and this particle display in question loaded about 2 minutes after everything else loaded. And everything else stayed blurry like that for at leat 2 minutes before finally getting clear.

Yep, I've seen that.
One would think that at the least the collision particles - sparks - could be made to stay from the beginning of a session to the end so they you only had to see the gray loading textures in their place once at most.

You did remember to file a bug report, I hope.

I'm noticing this sort of thing a lot now that there are more and more snow machines around. (Which can look a little silly in areas without snow on the ground, really.)
