Alone in the Dark 4: The New Nightmare Hints
How do I use the machine on the first floor of the workshop?
1 of 9: While you don't need to, you might want to find a document telling you what the machine is for.
2 of 9: You'll find that document while you're trying to fix the perforator in the oubliette.
3 of 9: The third page of the blueprints shows you what you need to do here.
4 of 9: It appears this machine is some sort of forge.
5 of 9: You can get the mould from the oubliette.
6 of 9: Go up the smaller set of stairs near the broken perforator stand (not the main stairs to the exit), and you'll find the mould in front of a chained-up chest.
7 of 9: You should also already have the metal for the machine by now.
8 of 9: A steel ingot was in the same chest as the key that unlocked the door to the workshop.
9 of 9: Use the mould then the ingot on the machine and pull the lever. You'll get a perforator barrel for your efforts.
