So, thank you for the info. I can do some troubleshooting with that.
That should have been what you did first prior to posting.
Nothing I mentioned was any big revelation. A patch may break stuff. Check for updates. Also if you are going to post on the Awesomemod forum suggesting that Awesomemod is a problem for you, have some empirical data to backup your claim. Are you getting a problem with only Awesomemod running and not other custom content that you don't get when you take Awesomemod out? Don't know? Try it.
Oh yes and let's not forget search is your friend and since your question may have (it was) asked before you can possibly alleviate the need to post by doing a search first.
re: Rant of righteous indignation to deflect blame for your own laziness and Speshul Snowflake behavior that somehow warranted a new thread.

My game worked before I went on holiday last week, and when I came back from holiday all I did was download the new version of Awesomemod and suddenly it sits on the loading screen.
And before you ask, yes I do have the most recent versions of all other mods I use, and yes I have checked that those mods are compatible with the current EPs/SPs I have installed and with each other/Awesomemod. I have only updated Awesomemod, and now my game sits on the loading screen. Take Awesomemod out, and it doesn't do that. Pretty sure that indicates that the loading screen thing - for me, at least - is a problem with Awesomemod.
Did you patch to 1.14/2.9/3.5/4.2? This was the patch released on July 7th.

Not that I agree with aimlesscoyote's attitude, but I feel I should point out that I've had this exact same issue and all the evidence points towards it being Awesomemod. My game worked before I went on holiday last week, and when I came back from holiday all I did was download the new version of Awesomemod and suddenly it sits on the loading screen.

I'm having the same problem with the loading screen. I haven't played in awhile, installed the newest Awesomemod version yesterday and all of a sudden it's stuck. I've checked and quadruple checked everything to make sure it isn't a mod conflict or a framework fail, and I'm up to date on patches. I don't have any ScriptError file either. I've run the game without any other mods or custom content installed and it still sits forever on the loading screen. Uninstall Awesomemod and it's fine again.

I can't reproduce this. What you can try: Remove, save, reinsert, reload.

My game takes about 10 minutes before the bar starts to move when loading my sunset valley save game. It has been that way since AMB. My wife's game is similar, but not quite as long. She also remembers it started as soon as she installed AM for AMB. New games load nice and quick. Nothing I have been able to do will reduce the loading times with current games. Even removing AM does nothing to help it. Considering new games are fine, and removing AM does nothing to help, I'd assume it's not AM causing it. I usually just minimize the game and go browse the web for a while. Also since AMB the game takes forever to exit, so again I just minimize it.
I have noticed that loading the same town from right before AMB will load just fine, but as soon as it's saved with AMB changes it grinds to crawl at loading. My save games are about 145Mb now, that size jumped up as soon as I started making edits to the world in edit town, adding new lots etc.
I've tried removing all CC, and the game still takes forever, so whatever it is, it seems I'm stuck with it. Once the town population decreases, I may have to consider using Porter and exporting all my sims to a new town, minus the hundred or so tomb stones stored in the mausoleum.
If it helps, I can upload my save game, but I have no idea what could be causing it.
J. M. Pescado:
What's causing it is that there's simply too much stuff that has to be thrashed to and from disk, decompressed, recompressed, etc. One way to GREATLY improve the speed of the game is to decompress all the game's main packages....and store them all in a RAMdisk. Modifying the main packages like this will most likely make it impossible to patch the game later unless you reinstall...but you were installing to RAMdisk. You're going to get to reinstall anyway. By predecompressing the packages, and installing entirely to RAM, load times can be cut to about 5 seconds.
