Weird Crash --- can't find any sort of solution.
azahiel:
Hey, I recently have a similar problem.
Awesome mod wouldn't work with patch 1.3 at all. The first loading screen just froze.
I had a full system crash and had to reinstall windows from scratch. The Sims 3 directory in my documents was saved, because I moved my documents to a different partition.
Anyway, I reinstalled Sims 3, it successfully updated to patch 1.4.
Now the game simply crashes to the desktop on the first loading screen. If I add scriptterror it manages to load, but crashes exactly like explained before - right after choosing a family.
It turned out that I have a mod conflict with: http://www.modthesims.info/download.php?t=356510
So if you have this crash and use other mods remove all of them and try to run the game with only awesome.

Same problem here!
I'm playing with the unpatched version of the game (no cc except Riverview and two cars/two sets from the store, so no other mods) and it works pretty fine but when i use AwesomeMod it crashes to desktop.
Since July 20th the game always crashed when i tried to use the mod - but it worked fine with the mod of July 15th.

As we've said several times, awesomemod does not work with the unpatched game. Done. Period. End of story. Thank you drive thru.

Allright...
What SEEMED like a mod conflict (because the game worked after deleting that mod) transformed into the "do not report" crash now every time I try and run the game...damn :<
and it worked fine on 1.2

Some stuff to try:
Check the version in the launcher and/or on the ts3.exe. Make sure the patch really did take. In the launcher the version in the lower left corner should be listed as 1.3.24.00001, 1.3.24.00002, 1.4.6.00001 , or 1.4.6.00002. The TS3.exe version should read 0.2.0.18.
Take all other mods and custom content besides awesomemod out and see if it still happens.
Keep trying. How many times is every time? The standard crash on loading screen has been known to happen 5 or 6 times in a row for me, but if you're loading 20+ times and still no dice then definitely something is wrong.
Make sure you have the very latest version of awesomemod (updates that provide fixes but aren't a full new version are frequently posted without being announced)
Make sure your framework installed correctly when you reinstalled the game. Be sure you have d3dx9_31.dll in C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\Game\Bin, a resource.cfg in C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3. A mods\packages\hacks bla bla folder directoryC:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3. awesomemod.package in either C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\mods\packages or C:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3\mods\packages\hacks
