# Step 1 - Setup

#### Create NextLevelPlugins Account <a href="#create-rws-account" id="create-rws-account"></a>

[Log in](https://nextlevelplugins.com/login) or [create an account](https://nextlevelplugins.com/registration/)

#### Create Developer Project <a href="#create-developer-account" id="create-developer-account"></a>

It's a simple process. You will need to go to the NextLevelPlugins website, log in, or create an account, and you will get instant access to the developer portal. Then, you will need to head over to the Developer Portal. It will ask you what you would like to title this project, and it will do the rest.

#### Before You Can Download

* You will either need to purchase the plugin from the NextLevelPlugins store
* Submit a verification via the developer portal (this is if you own it on Epic Games); then, you will want to click on server manager on the right. You will see "Ranked Server Manager (Verify)." Connect your Epic Games account and follow the other steps. Then, submit it, and you should get a response pretty fast. If not, wait a few minutes, and you should get a response within a few minutes.

#### **Step 4 (OPTIONAL)**

If you plan on using all servers chat, you will need to download the [NLPChatSystem](https://nextlevelplugins.com/app/chat_system/installer/). You will be running the server and have full control over the chat system.

* **Step 3.1**: After you have downloaded the chat system you will need to port forward your port **8999** on your server.
* **Step 3.2**: You will need login to your NLP Account this will be a one time process after it will start automatically logging you into your account. Your **Project ID** and **Login Project ID** can be found inside your developer portal.
