Well, well, well.
I'm removing the links and the instructions.
If anyone of the GOG team had considered including this patch officially, please don't.
Apparently I completely missed this obvious issue, everybody else did.
The numbers I was changing are not really the "bad" damage scaling values. Well, they are, but they're also the damage scaling on the monsters.
Basically, Extra Crispy is totally screwed up in this manner, with monsters always doing the damage they should yes, but now you can kill them very easily.
This means the game just references this section wrongly and I don't have the competence to change that, in fact I didn't have to spot this problem before I bloody posted the god damn patch everywhere.
The patch was crap. Please stop using it. I'll leave the "easy" one because this one works fine as a cheat but the patch is scrapped.
This is shameful and I'm truly sorry.
No, no, no, don't be sorry! Without the source code, hex editing is probably the only way we will be able to correct issues that creep up like this. Think of it as the quality control stage of software development. Your efforts have certainly pointed us in the right direction..........................
