Elvira I & II on Kickstart 3.x.. almost there!

Hi there,

On my quest to find out the best way to play games on my 4MB Minimig (2MB Chip, 1.5 MB Fast), I found out this patchs for Elvira: Mistress of the Dark:

http://aminet.net/biz/patch/ElviraPatch.lha

It patches the main game executable so it runs on a KS 2.x based system, but I'm running 3.1 (A600 version, since the Minimig is a plain 68000 at 50Mhz) on my Minimig.
On KS 3.1, this patch makes the intro look right (great!) but it gurus just before the game starts.
Of course I can load KS 2.x and reboot, but I'm preparing a perfect HDF for Minimig users and that's an annoying solution: in an idea scenario, no KS switching should be needed, and I've came to the conclusion that KS 3.1 is far more stable and compatible with Whdload installs.

Sadly, whdload install for Elvira I & II is not an option on the Minimig, as it has too many OS swaps that ruin the game, while it runs beautifully from HDD without it.

So, being SO near... is it possible to fix this patch to make the game work on KS 3.1 systems too?

Thanks!!
