The patch 1 is an official patch. The patch 1 and UKBox executables are very similar. Officially, the patch 1 fixes an issue with the CD and framerate, but there are a few differences :
- The patch 1 can skip the fmv videos.
- The patch 1 overwrites the previous executable so it can be used with both versions of Floating Islands.
- You don't void when being clamped by a skewed low ceiling.
- You're not pushed back in the special spot in Offshore Rig.
The patch can be found here web.archive.org/web/20021118224626/http://www.traider.pl:80/tr2p1.exe (a different date links to a different patch version)
The patch 1 can be found in at least 2 different magazines.
Generation 4, issue 106, January 1998 (French magazine)

Most magazines have the patch 2 instead which was built 1 week later. These 2 magazines have the patch 1 exe. I've only found it in english.
Another patch has been released, called Patch 1.1 and Patch 2. Patches 1.1 and 2 are actually the same executable. They're similar to the multipatch exe, with the notable ceiling bug.
The patch 1.1 can have the same name as the patch 1 tr1p1.exe which may be confusing.
