I downloaded a new framework from mod the sims, I deleted everything in Documents\Electronic Arts\The Sims 3, added the mod folder inside I had Resource.cfg, and a folder named Packages with aweconf.package inside, there was no cache in the "The sims 3" folder, and no old files.
Just the config? You don't mention whether or not you have AwesomeMod itself. That would probably help.

And the "The sims 3" folder looks like when I first installed it. Both the launcher and the ts3 patch downloader by FordGT90Concept over at the Mod the sims says I have the latest patch.
