animated textures would be less stressful on the sim than particles? I want to have rain on half a sim. I use damani atm . I dont have a problem with rain inside because i can set fall length/time.( rain particle dies just before it hits the roof) I just want a better looking rain and less lag/scripts etc.

maybe like the multilayered mega prim. Like the ones used for fog and shadow? or any other way to make rain effects without particles
