Game doesn't even load.

[JessicaCucco]

So, I upgraded the game to the newest version, which includes upgrading pro mods and rus maps. I organized the mods correctly as instructed here, everything seemed to be just right. But when I tried to load the game, it loaded half way and froze. It just stuck half way for more than 10 minutes. So, I tried all kinds of possibilities, without rus maps, without that promods company and trailer mod, well any combination and nothing works. Always the same thing, it loads half way, I press ctrl + alt + del, it says ETS 2 is not responding and that's the end of it. Funny thing is that I just can't understand is if I try to load the game without any mods active, although the same thing happens, when I press ctrl + alt + del, I click on the program and it goes from not responding to executing, the loading finishes and the game works. Needless to say, I've no interest in playing ETS 2 without ProMods.

I tried uninstalling and installing it again, perhaps the problem is in the game directory. No, exactly the same crash. I tried making a new profile without any mods active, not a single difference. Then I trashed the files folder and let it create a new one, which sadly didn't change anything either.

ETS 2 is the only game I play( can't really count ATS, can you?) and I'm really disappointed and frustrated that this is happening. Can you guys please help me out and point out what's the matter with this thing and how I can fix it?

Here's the part of the game log that there's an error, for some reason I wasn't able to attach the whole log.

Thanks a lot.

It's not a bug. Loading for the first time takes alot, but after first start it's very fast. Let the game load and do something for a few minutes. Only Promods map took me 6-7 minutes and i have a good PC.
With Rus Map and everything...do the math.

Of course you were right. It's only obvious, oh silly me who doesn't know much, if at all, about computers. I let it loading and after, I don't know, 20 minutes or so it loaded perfectly and without errors. Thanks for helping me! Pardon my inconvenience!
