1. Backup your save files it's in (winkey + r -> type in %localappdata%) appdata/local 2. delete everything in the folder it will be some number 812371203 or w/e it is for you 3. Go to Steam > Settings > Cloud > untick Enable Cloud (make sure to turn this back on afterward) 4. You need to put saves in one at a time since they're named identically 5. all of the saves show up on the main menu as Gryffindor, ignore this and load data (i manually clicked to Load File instead of pressing continue) 6. walk forward a bit, achievement pops when it forces you into the menu to choose a talent, you don't have to choose a talent just back out and exit game 7. repeat with remaining houses (delete all files in save folder and copy over new file; there should only be one file in that numbered folder)
Just a note for anyone in the future. For some reason when I load in to the main menu, it shows all of the save files as Gryffindor. This is not true, don't trust the main menu's house emblem. Load in to the game and you will be the correct class you downloaded.
Commenting for those having trouble getting the acheivements to unlock....
I had to back up and delete the mods I had installed, then load the save file. It wouldn't unlock the achievement until the mods were removed. I'm guessing it has to do with any mods that unlock the Talents menu or anything that is supposed to be locked until you reach the Map Chamber.
Note: You can return to the main menu, delete the save files in the folder, and put one of these save files into the folder, so you don't have to relaunch the game. Probably common sense, but I thought I should mention it.
It worked! Thank you so much for this mod, I've had the game since february 22 and only now got my 45/45 thanks to this. I really thought they'd patch this up by now, but oh well.
I successfully loaded the saves, was able to play until the talents menu, but the achievement didn't pop up. My save files are empty, but the folder with the number and the actual saves downloaded from here. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm getting Hufflepuff, with a new character.
I refuse to do it twice more with the other houses.
Your saves worked perfectly =D
