Bug Fixes
- Fixed a hole in the terrain at a Gadai recruit camp in Thronefast.

VFX
General
Disabled VFX scaling on the majority of effects. This should address some NPC types (spiders, toads, etc) having improperly scaled VFX play on them. Some may need to be re-adjusted to account for this change (like appearing too small now in some cases, or components not playing at the correct height on some NPCs), but for now it should resolve the majority of these cases where visual effects were way too big and obstructing gameplay.
