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.

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.

I don't know the answer to your question, but if it's really annoying you that much, try this mod.  I've found it works with WA.

De-lurking to add my attempt at this month's House of Phail. I kept all of the trees and the pond, but I did have to move a couple of the trees in the front yard to get what I wanted. I think I only moved them by one space or so, though.

Outside of the house:



Floorplan:

First floor contains the one desk, lockable kitchen and stairwell, space for spawn and various skilling zones. Also has an attached garage with mini-gym/spa and indoor pool at the back, with one-size-fits-all bathroom.


Second floor contains three out of the four bedrooms and a second one-size-fits-all bathroom (note: since this is upstairs, all other exits from the stairwell are lockable in case your Sims are hosting a party and the guests are too stupid to find the bathroom in the garage). The large room at the bottom of the picture is a mini-club with bar, pool tables and instruments.


Third floor contains the master bedroom and bathroom, and one secret room for witchery things or suchlike. There's also a mini-study (and the computer is on a table, not a desk. )

A few random other shots:




Costs just under $250K fully furnished. I have all EPs and SPs. Download: http://www.4shared.com/file/110430631/8ba293ec/407_Edgewater_Parkway_redo_1.html
