I'm trying to follow the trying to make the mods article:
http://unknownworlds.com/ns2/time-to-make-the-mods/

I'm at the point where i have to run it for the first time (so no tweaked shotgun yet).
My screen stays black. If i look at processes ns2 didn't freeze.
Or do i have to wait really long? Normally the menu is there in 15seconds or something.

hope someone can help

    Can you email me a zip of your mod?

    I can try to figure out what is going on.

    Your problem is in the game_setup.xml file.

    If you open the console with ~ in game, you will see this being spammed:

    Error: Error reading end tag.
    Error: Couldn't load 'game_setup.xml'

    It failed to parse the file due to this line having a typo:

    <predeict>lua/ModPredict.lua</predict>

    The console and log file are your friend ;)
