One question though: why is the d3dx9_31.dll only 73.5 kb when the same dll in my windows\system32 is 2.30 mb? Is there a chance that there is a conflict?
No, this is deliberate.
New wild-assed theory: Try nuking the contents of \Windows\Prefetch.

I'm so sorry for all my confusion, I'm very technologically challenged. When I click on Computer-->The Sims 3, it brings me to the files that are on my disc. Are you saying I need to burn the files to the disc? When I try pasting the files there that's the only option I get.
No no no, you want C:/Program Files/Electronic Arts/The Sims 3/Mods/Packages.
If you do not see Mods/Packages, you do not have framework, which you need. It is also in the main download thread.
WerewolfOfTheWater:
I got a couple script errors. They seemed to happen completely at random and had no real negative effect, but I figured I'd attach them so you could take a gander. One of these happened simply by trying to have a toddler crawl around (on a neighbor's lot) one of them happened while the sim was at work, I think.
Marhis:
I apparently have an installation that doesn't crash; I wonder if, being on a Mac, the windows configuration really matters in this issue. The content of the game's windows folder is minimal and standardized for the porting in Wine, so it could probably be useful if I post its content.

The Start Menu folder contains only a Programs folder, which also contains another Startup folder, empty.
The drivers folder is empty.
hugaloaf:
Thanks for all the help, it's now working but the game is crashing at 1am (as I see others have reported). So as someone suggested I downloaded the modified configuration to prevent this. Just wondering, do I need to still keep in the awesome.package file? Or just the aweconf.package?
