    what advantage would there be using this over just visualstudio, notepadd++ or vim?

    seems all of those could be configured to do the same, and be more custmizable.

    Nice. I will have to try this out. I have been using ConTEXT. I have been avoiding visualstudio. Keep up the good work.

    Cool, gona have to try this. Only feature I am missing from the list is a calss tree browser to quickly find classes. Svn integration wouldn't hurt either.

    I'll give you some feedback after trying this out.

    Is it really possible to get autocomplete to work with uscript in notepad++ or vim?

    Even the visual studio solution is lacking a bit here as it can't autocomplete in all cases.

    Personally, a full featured soltuion for Eclipse would be my first choice (We use this at work so it's mostly about what I am used to). Even considered making one my self but it would be yet another project in the big pile that never seem to get finished.

    Class Tree Viewer has been added....Please test it out and share your feedback. :)

    Am not sure about adding autocomplete in Notepad++ or Vim...

    Wow that was fast :).

    While the tree view you added is useful and faster than fetching files externally, what I was thinking of was an inheritance tree. I would call the current view a package view and make both available as tabs. Edit: The actor browser in unrealed is a good example of what I mean.

    Seems something is broken for me as the text editor is giving me a lot of spaces between each keyword and some characters are missing. It worked great for my brother yesterday though. I tried switching skins while going through the options which my brother didn't do so maybe that's what triggered it. Let me know if you want a screen shot of what it looks like.

    Due to this bug I didn't get to test it so much yet. we tried the auto-complete some yesterday on my bothers PC though. We only managed to get it to auto-complete functions. Not sure if it is a limitation so far or a bug but I would like to at least auto-complete local and member variables as well.

    Some way to rigger it without typing anything as well would be great like ctrl+space in visual studio.

    The question about notepad++ and vim was more directed at passerby. While visual studio and wotgreal are more powerful than unreal-x in it's current form I haven't found any working solutions for notepad++ or vim. Sure you can quiet easily get some syntax highlighting but I haven't seen any solutions to code completion or class trees of uscript.

    This almost makes me want to start TRYING to learn the first steps of Unrealscript again, even though my brain cant handle this madness! Gave it a shot about a year ago, managed to figure out the absolute basics of the structure, and object calling, but even that racked the hell out of my brain. I guess I'm only suited to the art side of things, but eff it, I think I'll give it another go, this is pretty appetising! Thanks

    The problem is gone now and can't see to reproduce it. I'll send a screen if it happens again.

    Looks good, here's a couple of features that I think would be nice ( perhaps they're there but I could not find them)

    -rightclick->go to definition/decleration on parent class/functions/vars would be nice.
    -opening multiple files and being able to dock/move them around etc.
    -autocomplete like feature would be good too.
    -a tool to view all available variables from current class(plus the whole hierarchy perhaps?)
    -I had more, but I forgot to write them down. It looks useful, keep up the good work.

    Thanks for the suggestions osman. Autocomplete feature is already there. For the multiple files opening, I will try to include it soon. A problem is actually preventing from doing it. By the way i updated the program. Please see first post.

    This is the only feature that is stopping me from using this at the moment, which osman mentioned:
    -opening multiple files and being able to dock/move them around etc.

    That one is a huge deal-breaker for me.

    Other than that, your UScript editor is great! It pretty much has everything I need to script all my classes. Keep up the good work! =]

    Oh, and a Polycount Skin would be a cool thing to add =P

    Great stuff, now all you need is to add some debugging and it's perfect.

    Perhaps this can help you: http://code.google.com/p/unreal-debugger/
