Particle Effects

Post by Nervey »

Any place where there are particles, most notably when an enemy is on fire or an alien phaser teleports, (Hey! Firefox's spell check doesn't think "phaser" or "teleport" are words!) my framerate drops considerably. Is the engine that inefficient at handling particles, or are you using thousands of particles in each case?

I'm thinking its a Deus Ex Engine thing thoo .. :x
The real trouble with reality is that there's no background music.
