Bough Hearthfire the other day...spent like 5 hours building the houses trying to get the "Master Architect" achievement....and it did not unlock. I'm pretty upset about this....mainly because i have searched all over the forums...and it seems i'm the only one having this problem....there was one person but somehow they got it to unlock...but i can't. I built all the houses with all the possible extra rooms. I did not fill the houses completely because i read that you don't have to.

Is anyone else having this problem? And does anyone know a fix for this? I really don't want to start over again...and then have it not unlock again.

I'm not 100% sure if it is needed or not, but did you convert the starter houses into an entrance or whatever?

I think i know it's doing it...it seems evertime i fast travel....everything resets on the workbench.

all you did was the layout?

I did the layout and all the additions for all three.

and on the workbench... outside... convert small house into entryhall
it will not show up again

al three wings must be built but do not need to be furnished on all three homes

I got the achievement. What i had to do was go onto a different save before i purchased the properties, then purchase the properties again and had to make sure i had enough of the supplies for all 3 houses (because i couldn't fast travel, i didn't want to take the risk of the workbenches resetting) Then i rode shadowmere to each of the houses and build them with all additions and i had to make sure i turned the house into an entry way. I didn't wait...nor fast traveled because it could have messed the acheivement
