snow effects trouble

[Swooda]

well as you can guess im haveing a little trouble with weather effects. basicly whats happing is after i have applyed the texture to it and load the map i get the snow effect, but its squared shape and its black..now i turned on the dynamic lighting but that only helped to where you will see the snow look white only when its infront of you otherwise when its falling its still black now my other problem is its snowing in the other rooms where i dont want it to.now i have tryed unrealwiki but that lead to a dead end basicly same problum..so im not really sure what to do .can anyone give me some advise,thx in advance:D

The black tex problem has to do with the alpha, which apparently isn't working. I'd just choose another one.

As for the "snowing indoors" thing, create a volume where you don't want it to snow and set it to something unique like "NoSnow."
