We don't need the delay any more because the rendering itself is part of the normal rendering traversal - so it's delayed anyway.
Don't request maps that we're not actually using (i.e. with cell grid sizes higher than the default 3, we were rendering more maps than the map window could show).
conversion from 'const float' to 'int', possible loss of data

The cell loading threshold (default: 1024 units) prevents exterior cell loading until the player has travelled part-way into the next cell. This gets rid of excessive cell loadings when walking along an exterior cell border.
Lower the maximum allowed view distance in options menu to accomodate. Change setting name so that old settings files are upgraded.
- Consistent triangle alignment, fixes a noticable crack near the census and excise office. Note that alignment is still not the same as vanilla. Vanilla uses a weird diagonal pattern. I hope there aren't more trouble spots that will force us to replicate vanilla, but at least we can do that now.
- Fixes several blending issues and cell border seams
- Fix map render to use the terrain bounding box instead of an arbitrary height
- Different LODs are now properly connected instead of using skirts
- Support self shadowing
- Normals and colors are stored in the vertices instead of a texture, this enables per-vertex lighting which should improve performance, fix compatibility issues due to the PS getting too large and mimic vanilla better
- Support a fixed function fallback (though the splatting shader usually performs better)
- Designed for distant land support - test: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wnd9EuPJIY - we can't really enable this yet due to depth precision issues when using a large view distance
