Mesmer clones affected by Culling settings

With the new patch, Mesmer clones are affected by the Culling settings so that if you have them set to the minimum they will spawn as generic pink wearing mooks and even if you set them to the maximum setting they will still spawn as placeholder for a second before loading the proper texture.

Not game breaking but very irksome, specially since no matter how high I set my settings the placeholder will still show up everywhere regardless of amount of people for a second.

In the same vein if I set the culling to low (instead of lowest) the phantasms will spawn with no ghostly appearance making them look like clones.

Finally animations on the illusions themselves fails to load half the time making them stand there motionless (though their skills still trigger normally so it has no gameplay impact, this happens in all culling settings)

Thanks for the report, folks. I’ll send this in for review.
