Issues fixed

Lag when the music changes

While playing Age of Empires the games freezes for a second every time the background music track changes. Disabling the music via settings or command line is the only solution.

This occurs only when using the MIDI music. Some versions of the game with CD Audio don't have this issue.

In-game colors looks odd

For a solution see: Colors Fixes
