@ piratesforlunch: Did you have Supreme Commander enabled for any sims in your saved game?If so,this may be the reason that you cannot play it without Awesomemod.Try starting a new neighbourhood and see if that works.
I've never enabled it, but this time before I started up my game I removed the awesomemod and the .dll file (I had never removed the .dll file before) and at least I got the loading screen. It froze though. Is that some improvement? I'm definitely not a computer person. ???
Thanks :)
moosemonk:
Well,a frozen game isn't much of an improvement,I'm afraid.As far as I know,all that is required to remove Awesomemod is to simply take the 'awesome.package'file out of your Mods folder.This has always worked for me in the past,I've never deleted a cache file or any other type of file.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help to you.

One thing that may help some of you people having problems: Disable your user account control. Go to control panel, user accounts and disable it there. This is if you run Windows Vista...not sure if it's the same for the other OS's.
Some Observations I have made in regards to this thread (observations based on my own perceptions and estimations, not necessarily factual. Not complaining...please know that I regard you all with my utmost affection and admiration.)(Yes, I have been drinking...um, I mean...) (Okay, my pathetic attempt at humor and wit...feel free to insult, tease, bully, and otherwise demean me...nothing you can say will be worse than my own reaction when I read this tomorrow...lol)
1. If you insult yourself in the process of asking a stupid question you are less likely to be mocked
2. Most of the people who "help" answer questions in this forum are likely "tech geeks" and spend most of their work day answering stupid questions and required to be polite and diplomatic in order to keep their jobs, so therefore find a way to vent their frustrations by voluntarily answering stupid questions here and saying what they wish they could say at work
3. Sometimes, at least in my experience, using the windows search function doesn't always (or even usually) give you all the results you are looking for. I have often searched things, deleted everything that turned up in the search, and then found more instances of that particular program manually.
4. Windows Vista SUCKS. If your comp can handle it, get Windows 7. Haven't tried it yet personally, but honestly, how much worse can it be? If all else fails, get XP. At least that one functioned somewhat.
5. People are ignorant...sometimes stupid, but most often ignorant...get used to it, it's everywhere! lol. The best in my experience is when someone goes up to a drive thru speaker (I used to work in fast food...you'd be surprised how often this would happen...at least once a day) wait until you ask to take their order and say "are you open?".....
6. I think that vodka hit me harder than I originally thought
7. I am not a "tech geek" myself...I am a "tech geek" wannabe poseur who knows enough of the basics to bullshit my way through most techie conversations.

Okay, don't want to spam you guys. Hope you enjoyed the sites, if not my long winded drunken comments. Have a good night. :P

I find it very funny that the previous poster had the time to chastisize tech helpers in this thread claiming that they aren't helpful enough, all the while not contributing anything of value to the posters questions. Yes, people are mean here, your observations have been stated by numerous others and yes, you will probably feel ashamed in the morning. If you have any information of value tomorrow that might shed some light on the issue, please return then. Until the sun rises you better keep hugging that vodka bottle and hope for the hazy alcoholic bliss to lull you to sleep. And for the rest of the posters in here, please utilize CAPS LOCK and capitalize your letters. It is far easier on the eyes when skimming through posts.
On topic: the four cache files that you can delete will spawn again once you start the game anew. I have no idéa as to what is causing the red blur in the game, but I gather it is not a good thing. Maybe someone else has thoughts about what is going on in your game, graywolf.
piratesforlunch: have you checked that you have deleted the framework when taking out awesomemod? And just so you know, there are other core mods out there, so if you wish to keep your cc, you'll just have to do a search on google. Also, if you are going to pick files and taking them out willynilly, you better make some backups for them in a folder somewhere, preferrably on the desktop. Otherwise you could end up with a totally fubarred game and no way of putting the pieces back together.
Just one question: Quote
it's either i play with the awesomemod and cc (which i must have) or nothing at all, only base game junk, which i hate.
Didn't you say you couldn't get the game to work, at all? I r confuzzled.
