Loading Bar loads all the way, then nothing
funkilla:
How many mod folders do you have? I only play with NRAAS Story Progression and AM, and I keep them in the The Sims 3/Mods/Packages folder only and it works fine. Double check to make sure you don't have two copies of AM lurking.
Make sure to copy the d3dx9_31.dll from Program Files/EA/The Sims 3/Game/Bin into WA/Game/Bin.

Monkey created Mod/Package folders in TS3 and in WA, but AM is only in the TS3 Mod/Package folder. There are no subfolders in there either.
When the instructions said if it didn't work, then move AM to the WA Mod/Package folder, I did a cut and paste. I have checked repeatedly to make sure that there is only one copy of AM in only one of the Mod/Package folders.
The d3dx9_31.dll is in both the TS3 and WA Game/Bins.

If the game is loading at all, then it is not framework failure, and this advice is bad. Stop being a noob enabler.
As for said noob, look around more. There are plenty of contingencies in place for such issues. You clearly failed at finding them. Try again.

Just because I ask a question doesn't mean that I haven't looked, nor that I've stopped looking.
And for the record, I've 'lurked moar', read the faqs, and have been using the search.
I asked 3 simple yes/no questions.
To the first, supposedly Monkey Bar and AM are compatible. Yet Monkey Bar works without AM, but AM does not work when in the monkey. I have now even tried replacing the Monkey Bar with the unzipped advanced framework. No change.
To the second, I have found nothing regarding registration requirements, and I would be totally surprised if it was a requirement. But I wanted to cover my bases. (edited to add that now I know that registering and getting the free download didn't change anything, didn't think it would, but had to check since nothing else was working.)
To the third, I have now even tried deleting all 4 caches, with still no change.
And yes, I keep checking to make sure that I don't have any copies in the folders, etc.
I have even redownloaded the awesomemod file in case the first had somehow gotten corrupted.
At this point, I am exhausted from hours of searching for a solution and am ready for a break. I will keep an eye on this thread to see if anyone has anything constructive to offer. If I cannot find a solution, and noone has any constructive ideas or input, then I will obviously have to scrap the idea of using awesome mod.

Silent Dreamer thinks your framework is installed correctly. If you agree, then you don't need to know the answer to your first question. If you do not agree, then you need to research installing framework and verify for yourself that framework is installed correctly. After that, you will be sure and you won't need to know the answer to your first question.
If you would be totally surprised that AM would require registration, why ask? This is a question that you don't really care about. No one else does, either, judging from the lack of response.
You have already deleted all the cache files, so you don't really care about the answer to the third question. You assumed the answer was "yes" and proceeded accordingly. If someone comes along and answers this question, nothing changes.
The only real question that you care about is the last one, and then only the last part of the last question. For an answer to that question, I suggest that you verify that Silent Dreamer is correct by learning everything you can about the framework and verifying that it is installed correctly. After that, I suggest that you verify that you have the latest awesome.package, and verify that it is the latest using criteria other than the fact that you just downloaded it. Once you know you have the latest AM, make sure that it is the only one, and with your new understanding of the framework, that it is installed in exactly the correct spot. Last, delete the script cache again, which can be conveniently done from the Dashboard, and restart your game.
