The new volt sparks turned out admittedly well, but if your machine protests in despair with quite unneeded amounts of performance drops, drop that into your /skins folder.
Screenie of how it looks (do note that the effect you see there is going to appear in the next version, so haha - fps drops for you. ):


And here's one without that effect:

But as you can see, it still looks fine.

And if some of you for some reason don't know what a /skins folder is, then here's what you do:

Make a folder called "skins" in your skulltag folder.
Drop VoltLoRes.pk3 from the download link at the start in there.
???
Profit.

Thanks, but if the 2nd image shows lesser particles, all aow people should have that skin in folder so they can see shock guy opponent better. I have just put it.
