| Category: | Graphics |
| Question: | I recently obtained a hollow katar and noticed if you are standing in peace mode with the weapon in hand, the orbiting light balls are rendered behind my character instead of on the weapon itself. It depends on where I position the camera. If you need a screenshot, I will be happy to provide one. Just wondering if this was a bug. My gfx card is running fine on anything else. Thanks. |

| Answer: | Particles don't necessarily sort correctly with the rest of the world. In order to make them fast and efficient, we opted to be looser on the sorting rigidity. In general this works well, but in a few cases it's not optimal. Sean. |
