ShortyBoo I don't have the frame work in I took all my mods and packages out to try Ambitions. When my card started screaming and going at over 150 fps I decided to try the limiter. It worked first time just put the file in your ambitions directory this includes the 3booter execute, fps limiter execute, HookHelper dll and Limiter D3D9 dll those are the files I used.
I'm banging my head against a wall with this. I've installed the four files you indicate above into Program Files/Electronic Arts/The Sim 3 Ambitions and then I tried creating a Mods folder there and putting it in that. No luck. What am I missing?
Edit: Re-downloading 3booter did the trick. Not sure why, but I'm pleased anyway.

If you have the 4 files in C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3 Ambitions and are using 3booter.exe to start your game, it should be working.

I unzipped the 3booter tool in my directory right where the resource is as you said would prevent the crash, but it didn't
the game still crashes when loading. Do you know why?

He never said it would prevent crashes.

Is your game refusing to cooperate and crashes immediately after looking like this a lot?

We don't know what causes it, and this won't solve that, but at least you won't have to relaunch the game. Just plop it in your root install directory next to resource.cfg and Mods directory, and point your shortcut at 3booter.exe instead. If the game crashes within 30 seconds of an attempted start, 3booter will kick it in the taco.

All it does is automatically restart the game if it does crash at the load screen so you don't have to.
Also, there are a lot of causes of crashes and yours may or may not be the well known load screen crashes that everyone just has to live with and keep re-trying until the game loads.
If, for example, this is your first time using mods and in particular awesomemod then there is a specific process for setting things up that varies depending on which version (expansion pack and patches) of the game you are running. You also need to make sure to run the version of awesomemod that's appropriate to your game version.
Search around here or Mod the Sims for more information regarding setting up your game to use mods correctly.

I see now. Thank you.
But how would I solve this? :(
