Is it possible to use unrealscript and create a volume in the game?

Thanks

yeah, but how would you define the size of a volume and stuff like that?
I couldn't find anything related in the Volume class...

Okay, you define a new volume by simply subclassing it. So some simple code such as,

Code:

class myVolume extends Volume;

That will do the trick, it won't do anything however. Now from there, make sure that you have your package in BOTH ServerPackages and EditPackages define in your UT2004.ini. From there you should just start up Unreal ED. Once in UnrealED you should be able to just click on your Volume button and your Volume name should be listed by it's class name.

Works for me.

YOU DO NOT SPAWN BSP TYPE STRUCTURES.

Did it work?

Snake, why ServerPackages as well as EditPackages? Is there something special about subclassing volumes or something?
