Description

Occasionally the game fails to load some textures, causing parts to show up as being black or certain letters in text to not display. Restarting the game sometimes fixes the issue, or may cause different textures to not load. The textures affected are different every time.

System Info:
Windows 7
8GB RAM
AMD Radeon HD 6770

Notes:
This bug also occurs in 0.18.4, but not 0.18.2

This is actually an issue that came about in .18.4 along with a crash at the load screen. It appears that alt-tabbing (or changing to any different window) while at the loading screen can cause any number of the games resources to fail to load. For example if you alt-tab in and out of the game very quickly during the duration of the load, most of the textures won't load, sometimes you won't get particles, and I've actually had the game crash at the start screen.

At any rate, I can confirm this. It's been documented before but I'll leave the priority at normal because (as someone who frequently alt-tabs) I think it one of the more annoying bugs. ;)

Can't reproduce on OSX. Tried Loading the game several times while cmd+tabbing in and out of the game during loading. Need it tested on other platforms before closing

Also tested on windows (Thanks quietGhost (IRC name)) - Cannot be reproduced

Textures are loading fine in build 1028, they are dds now rather than the strange mbm format.
