Here is my story, maybe this will help some. I was happily playing along with this wonderful hack. Then I DlL'd the wonderful installer over at MTS and suddenly I started getting lots and lots of crashes. I tried messing with the the config files and still crashed. Took out Awsomemod and viola no crashes. Then I got the really bright idea to reinstall the .dll file.
Bingo tihs corrected my crashing and have not had a crash since. So I did a little research and found that the .dll file over at MTS is an older version. If you haven't tried it try reinstalling the .dll file. This may fix your issues.
ps. Wonderful mods as usual. I feel even less awsome then I did in Sims 2
