Machine of Lum bug/broken?

Hi folks,
I'm unable to progress any further in the Watcher's Tower because the Machine of Lum isn't working like it's supposed to.

Instead of being to select three components of the machine (say green, triangle, medium) I can only select 2 which always results in a random effect.

It's the same problem described [url="http://forums.gibberlings3.net/lofiversion/index.php?t21941.html"]here[/url]:
Basically, I'm no longer allowed to make three choices when playing with the machine: after two I get the a random effect.
For example, in order to open the portal to the next level I usually need to click triangle-red-medium, but after selecting triangle and red the machine thinks I'm done and I receive the random effect.
The same happens whatever combination I use.
but the solution this guy used:
Edit: I fixed that myself changing a line in gorlum2.dlg
CODE Global("counter","GLOBAL",2)
has to be
CODE Global("counter","GLOBAL",3)
isn't working for me. I've tried changing it from 2 to 3 and 0 - doesn't make the machine work properly. Plus there are two gorlum2.dlg files in different folders - one that is in lower caps and the other in caps.

Any ideas on what I can do to fix this or codes I can use to get around it as I can't even open the portal to the next level?

Thanks :)

you could just use the console to go to the start of level 5. AR3019. Once there, there should be a portal to the outside of WK, if you want to exit (if you're not in TOB and dont have the pocket plane).
