By the way, when a WHDLoad game is started for the first time, I keep getting a notice that the Setpatch is not found. Why is that, and what might it affect?

Setpatch will only be there if it's needed.

From my own experience with WHDLoad games:

1. You need a full complement of ROMs (1.3 and up). It sounds like your Amiga Forever ROMs are still encrypted, if you have a Windows install I believe the ROMs are decrypted after first run of the Amiga Forever emulator.
2. Not every WHDLoad game will work - partly because the A600GS uses JST instead of whdload. Use ADF/ISO/HDF instead, or you can run them from an Amiga OS install (you'll need to install whdload).
3. Enable "Faster Chipset" and/or JIT as a last resort. They're just as likely (if not more so) to cause problems as fix them.

Can’t get several WHDLoad-Packages to work on my A1200NG, i.e. the Indiana Jones adventures, Simon the Sorcerer etc.

Died anyone manage to get these to run?

No, I've had no luck with either as main screen WHDLoad imports on my A600GS.
