Yes, you are subject to the latest patch from SOE. Patches like the ones you are asking about would not work with any version of EQEmu, old or new.

I'm just wondering if it's possible to bring back the old spell effects, working boats, Grobb with Trolls, Neriak how it used to be, and some of the original MIDI files that SOE replaced with MP3's.
The short answer is "no".
- There's currently a thread going about trying to bring back old spell effects. You can search for the thread, but my guess is that this will never happen.
- Almost all boats just simply don't work. The client no longer supports them, as far as we can tell. There have been many threads about this.
- Spawns in zones are handled by a database. The official releases don't have old zones (this is something I would like to see, too... specifically Cazic Thule). It's certainly possible to do, but AFAIK there are no databases out there with the old setups for those zones.
- I don't know how music is handled by the client. It may be possible to revert to midi's, but I couldn't tell you how.
