Frame Rate Optimizations
Reduced the amount of dust created on the floor when shooting certain weapons to optimize frame rate issues.
Tweaked the blood emitted from gibbed enemies and corpses to make them more visible and to help smooth out frame rate issues.
Optimized how the Shrapnel Storm's projectiles create impact effects to reduce frame rate drops when unloading the entire magazine into an enemy.
In the "Renderer Setup" menu the "Textures" are now set to "Bilinear" instead of "Nearest" and the "Anisotropy" is now set to "16X" by default to get the best frame rate possible on all maps with Polymost.

Reduced the chance of a lag spike occuring when destroying a large group of debris laying on the floor at one time.
