Something new to ask about

[lilalurl]

4-year bump but for future reference if needed.

I wondered the same today and after searching a bit, I believe it refers to the NetGames stats system.
The settings seems to be available in other Unreal Engine games and notably UT(99).

See:
How do I setup my ngWorld stats?

I'm assuming you're talking about UT. If so, read on. If not, please ignore this post.

Hmmm... I can't think of a way of doing that in the UT menus, but there is a section of USER.INI you may be able to edit to get it working.

Open the USER.INI file in the System folder under the directory you installed UT (The default is C:\UnrealTournament) using Notepad or whatever plain-text editor you prefer. Do a Find and look for ngWorldSecret=. Enter your case-sensitive password after the equal sign so it looks similar to this:

ngWorldSecret=PaSsWoRd

Right below that line you just edited, add or edit this next line:

ngSecretSet=True

Save the file and start up UT. That, hopefully, will enable your ngStats in UT. Let us know if it worked or not.

EDIT: If these lines are not in your USER.INI file, then add them to the last part of the [Engine.PlayerPawn] section.
