Comment (by Mesandro):

 Replying to [comment:4 m-kiewitz]:
 > No, the patches I was talking about are the patches inside of ScummVM.
 > We are patching games automatically, without changing script files and
 in a dynamic way, so that in most cases localized game versions are
 getting patched the same way, without us having to create special patches
 for every game version.
 >
 > ScummVM does not need these external patches, and you should not use
 them. They will also not work for localized versions of the game, and in
 some cases also break saved game compatibility, in other cases even
 introduce new bugs.

 > Maybe another ScummVM-SCI developer owns the floppy version of Gabriel
 Knight 1 and can look into this. I'm pretty sure there were localized
 floppy versions too.

 Very clear, thank you very much for the info. I had already imagined that
 those patches were not useful in ScummVM, but since for the CD version the
 files in the "Patches" folder are considered anyway, I wanted to try but
 in this case without success. Regarding the midi sounds on the CD version
 instead I wanted to report it, but I think it is a normal behavior of the
 game (which is annoying anyway), since it also appears on windows 10 (in
 addition to mac os).
