With the 1.42 patch and no other content except for the test Awesome mod (which I download just before opening the game) and its config file game immediately crashes in CAS when you click the change traits button when creating a sim. I tried both creating a new sim in existing and new world just to check that it wasn't just a neighborhood gone bad but in both the second you touch the change traits button the game simply crashes to desktop. Without awesome mod you can choose traits just fine, though there is a short pause before the panel pops up. Randomizing the traits worked just fine also. I still have to test if it happens without the config file too, but I'll edit that info here then.
