I get the same problem as the OP; my game will load to about 3/4ths of the way and it crashes to desktop. I removed AwesomeMod and it still crashes. I have not tried re-installing yet since I patched my game to 1.7.9 and I do not have WA installed. I'm probably doing something stupid but I'm at a loss for what's causing it, and I miss playing my game with AwesomeMod. Any help would be much appreciated, and go ahead and skewer the n00b if you must
Another problem I have with AwesomeMod is I can't get the config package to run. If I try to make a config AwesomeMod, it never shows up in my game. I think my game sucks (either that or I'm doing something stupid)
