Hey all...I noticed that GOG offers the original version of The 7th Guest, so last night I decided to download it. Am I missing something or is it the same version that I already had downloaded? Everything seems the same. Maybe I'm missing something or didn't download it correctly...Has anyone out there downloaded the original version of this game?

Glad to hear. Have fun with this classic!

I do have a question...Not really a big deal, but the music quality in the later versions of The 7th Guest is immensely better than the original midi-sounding music. Is there a patch out there that I can use to replace the original music with the better sounding music from the newer versions? If not, it's not really a big deal.

To be honest, I don't know. The midi output immensely depends on the midi capabilities of your machine, but I've only experience with tweaking Windows machines in this regard. I guess you're playing GOG's ScummVM version atm and not the one labelled as Original within the extras. The ScummVM version includes the original CD tracks, that came with the original hardcopy version which should play at some point in the game. They sound very good! While other music in the newer version is replaced by good quality Mpeg ACC files, these original CD tracks are missing, so there's also a good side playing the ScummVM version. However I can't remember every detail of when and how music was playing, so I can't help much on this any further. I'm pretty sure you won't be able to get the Mpeg ACC sound files working with the ScummVM version, so eventually the answer might be no, there's no patch to get the new sound working in the old version.
