Blog about the Particle Systems, we've already made one.
Feel free to check it out: http://www.roblox.com/item.aspx?id=83481326
I won't be selling or giving this away, sorry. |

Don't worry, I've already figured this out. Works at 30FPS too. Of course, my only practical application requires a limited camera angle.

Doesn't work..
Visit my store! It has everything! |

When I inserted 1337, roblox crashed. |

Doesn't work? Olol, it does work. Opinions on it please... |

Consider using fancy math to change the size of the particles.

Nice idea. That's the smallest it can be but using block mesh it is possible. |
|
|
Here's what I do. I start them off at minimum size, make them bigger using a mathematical function, and delete them when they reach minimum size.
Here's the mathematical function; it's a quadratic:
(-0.04*(x-5)^2 + 1) * 3
At x = 0, it's 0, and at x = 10, it's 0. It's at 5 where it's at it's maximum height, which is set to 3 in this case.
You can use it in a for loop that counts to 10.

We don't need them...
for i=1,10 do
x = 10 - i
mesh.Size = Vector3.new(x,x,x)
end
It's more simple if you'd ask me. Every aspect makes more lag. And yes, more math is an aspect also. |

In my experience, it has little impact on performance.

One thing..
Make the part do a bit of rotating. |

So, I'm making them rotate and get smaller. |
