HeatHaze in your face

It looks like HeatHaze effect is drawn right in front of player's eyes.

How to reproduce: get a flamer, fire the flamer.

@VReaperV maybe it's related to the work done around the model skeleton move to engine, or the entity cache?

The particle system lacks the forward velocity it had in 0.55. It's not specific to the heat haze; the visible flame texture also fails to move forward. So the particle is now way out of sync with the invisible missile, which can be seen with cg_drawBbox 1.

When firing the blaster with some time separated, all particles lit-up on the aimed far surface.

When maintaining the blaster firing, at some point the particles start lighting at blaster position.

Just to remove ambiguity: the above screenshots aren't about framerate (#1949) but about the particle being fired on the weapon, not on the far distance.

I don't reproduce such an issue with the blaster. Probably a separate issue from the flamer particle velocity

Ok, moved the particle stuff there:
