Hello. I try to apply patch on GOG version, using Apple Silicon mac and a "Porting Kit", but got a few errors and looks like patch is not working. Is there any chance u update patch for port kit usage?

I get a "not a valid win32 application" from all versions of the patch, so I can't install it. As per the nickname, I'm using Vista. 32bit.

Hello, Thank you for this patch, but I noticed some disadvantages
Windows version:
- No matter what I set in the patch, it quickly skips the beginning of the logo, etc
- Filters don't work
- The image is so-called in the middle with a black background, which is a small minus because you can add vodoo or a bezel :P
- Long waiting time for the next round, opponent, I don't remember, but this guy probably had it, but without the loading inscription, like on PSX.
- You cannot set buttons directly in the game.
- The commands to exit the game Esc, Alt+F4 do not work, you have to enter through the task manager.
DOS version:
- The beginning of the logo is strangely slow, etc., what can be heard after the music + crackling, it doesn't matter how much FPS I set in the patch, but the filters work :P
- A bit faster but still slow progress to the next round, player, but there is sound and not like in the Gog and Win version it cuts off the music :P
Gog version:
- The patch doesn't seem to apply to her, the fps change doesn't work, the filters are also a pity because the filters are cool :(
- You can't set the buttons directly in the game like in the DOS version.
- Screen freezes when exiting the game Esc, i.e. the game is in progress and the screen is frozen, only pressing Esc several times and waiting for a while exits the game, although not always.
Without Patch, pressing Esc takes the screen to the hmm window.
My conclusions
If you want to play alone, use the Gog Without Patch version, set the buttons and relax.
The Dos version for 2 people (you can change the buttons faster) although there is also a problem with swapped names, e.g. run to block, block to run etc. but it's a small problem + setting an accelerated start screen in the patch because it's a bit irritating when it slows down.
Too bad i can't have everything ;(
