Because it is based on the GWX 2.1 particles.dat file, not the EDE file. OLCE2 is incompatible with EDE and will remain that way, for many reasons, not least of which is my opinion that GWX's normal particle effects actually look a lot better than EDE's.
Sorry Skipper,

promise you to read your posts next time instead of flying over them
Actually I don't think I had mentioned the incompatibility yet in this thread, that's why I put it in red. It wasn't supposed to be shouting at you or something, it was just supposed to stand out.

BTW, the other reasons why I don't like EDE are:
- kills the framerate (yeah, yeah, I know, it's a bit hypocritical, but EDE kills my FPS way worse than even OLCE1 on high detail)
- upsets game balance by doing additional damage to the ships (those secondary explosions mean that almost everything goes down with 1 torp)
