What stage does it get to?
Does it go to the screen with the picture, or does it get as far as the final black loading screen with the text updates, and if it gets to that, which one does it get stuck on?
My working theory is possibly something is failing to load properly, so it keeps trying to place an object and fails the whole section of code stopping progression. The other one is that code keeps going but gets into an infinite loop trying to spawn it.
The bits of text that pop up like "Trimming bushes" are markers for what is currently being spawned/generated, so if it's stuck on one of those, it gives a good idea what's failed.
The other alternative is to quit and try again. Most things should spawn in the same place, but it might just have been a glitch. Still bad and I'd still like to track it down.
