I got the mad mage out of it and I started playing with the buttons when I realized that the bonuses that I should get from it aren't really there. I got the weapon but the strenght, dex and magic resistence that I wanted to add to my main character were just the same as before
shouldn't the bonuses be there right away? or am I missing something?

They should be there immediately. You have the right codes, right? :hmm: For some reason, I was under the impression that one character couldn't get all the attribute enhancements from Lum's machine. I could be wrong or have a different game from everyone else, so don't quote me. ;)

yes, there's the text displayed but I don't see any difference in the character screen :(

You're not wearing items that set your stats to a set value, are you?

If you have Lum's notes and use the correct codes, that's the only thing I can think of excluding bugs. Although I don't know whether there's some restriction in how many increases you can take for the same character, since I've never tried it myself.

You've got the ToB patch, right? There's no reason you shouldn't be able to get all of them. :confused:
And you can put them all on the same character if you want; I've soloed and it works.

I've put all the bonuses on one character. Though certain items like said might not let you see them. Other than that I don't know what could be wrong.

try unequipping all the magical items that might set stats such as strength etc and see if you notice a difference from your original set stats

it doesn't work no matter what character I use I even casted remove curse prior to this I still only get text displayed and no actual result


there were 2 other odd things I noticed - when I played with cambion I got strenght card, but at the end of a battle I noticed my character didin't loose str and con at all but I'm not sure if this supposed to wear off or not
and secondly when I first talk to the mage in the machine he supposed to punhish me but nothing happened

my game is patched though, I'll try to reinstall the patch though I doubt it will help

is there some other way to apply those bonuses that the machine should provide - like vith cluas?

The ability ones are easy. Here are the codes:

CLUAConsole:CreateItem:("XXXXXX") replace the Xs with the code you want.
BOOK03 - Manual of Bodily Health +1 Con
BOOK04 - Manual of Gainful Exercise +1 Str
BOOK05 - Manual of Quickness of Action +1 Dex
BOOK06 - Tome of Clear Thought +1 Int
BOOK07 - Tome of Leadership and Influence +1 Cha*
BOOK08 - Tome of Understanding +1 Wis*

* means you need to go to the inventory screen, drink a potion from your pack and not in your quick item slot (if it's there, it will get drunk), switch the appropriate book with the potion, go back to the unpaused game and viola! Your stat will go up by one.

The magic resistance I don't know how to do other than using Shadow Keeper.

I'll live without the magic resistance, thank you for the rest of them kuemper
