My journal says that the first stage is complete. So, explain again to me why it has NO doors?

I'm 38 years old, not 13. I do understand that one must wait until the stronghold is completely built. I realize that I failed to make that plain the first time. I just assumed that people would assume that my brain was at least the size of a pear as well.

Now, since I have spoken with the ork-builder, with the Telvanni building-chick, and received an entry in my journal (all FOUR times) stating that the initial phase of my stronghold was complete - WHY does it look like a small bulbous root-vegetable with NO doors??

Oddly, at this point in the English game, the stronghold has a door (only one, if memory serves - as I think the upper level and surrounding abodes were both part of the second phase, but am no longer positive). It can be entered. Inside, there is a nice little foyer and a hall leading up to a bed-chamber. Why does the German game not have these same lovely features? Indeed, why does the German game lack any features what-ever, barring the interesting piece of modern-art with no entry-ways what-ever?

I do hope I have been a bit more exacting in my description. Hasn't anyone else had this problem? Has anyone else got this same version of the German game and finding that they do not have this problem?

For the record, I am an American married to a German, living in Germany, and rearing my three children here. My English version was the British-English version. I also had the two add-ons installed in English then. The only plug-ins I have on are the Abu Manor, master index, and a Hair pack. I had them on when playing the English version, as well as numerous other plug-ins (which do not function correctly with the German version).

I'm thinking it is a bug, too, as no matter what I do I get the same 'misgebort' (miscarriage) looking onion sitting there with no portals to penetrate the interior, although my journal says that the first stage of my stronghold IS complete.

I was wondering though if anyone else has had any experiences with this. I wrote in German, because I assumed that mostly Germans would own the German version of the game and because that is the version with which I am having difficulties. 8)

I did indeed install them in that order. Thank you. That seems a pertinent point. I wonder, if I uninstall them and reinstall them to be certain that the installation was done properly, the saves should still function? So long as I have the plug-ins still and such?
