    Since 2.30 I have only constantly about 14-22 FPS on duststorm and escort (no matter where I'm looking at).
    While on other maps like street of fire and crossroads I still have my normal framerate (40-130 FPS).
    And it seems that FPS is dropping by time.

    System specs:
    Core2Duo E7200@2.53GHz
    AMD 4850
    WinXP

    I found the cause. It's "tracer_1" particle effect that doesn't die for whole round. At the end of crossroads game I had 3200 tracer_1 effects being simulated.

    Empty is away for some weeks.
    Will you fix it or can we just use the 2.29 particles files?

    They're included with Empires actually. You just need to enable them.

    Check the Release thread. The hotfix is there.
