WinUAE: New Online Help
Under the title link you'll find the new online help for WinUAE. The data "winuae.chm" must be placed in the same directory as "WinUAE.exe." Then it can be called with the help button in the WinUAE GUI.

Whoever uses UAE for more than games can find some tips for the usage of the emulator under "Tips->Hints for Powerusers" and now the description of the referenced program is also complete.
Whoever wishes to participate in the further development of this documentation, please send a comment to the author to get hold of the corresponding archive.

amiga-news.de: Changes to Editorial Team
Two changes occurred this month in amiga-news.de's editorial team: Alfred Sturm left; he had tended the Amiga Link Directory from June 2000 until December 2004 by adding and deleting websites and putting up a screenshot of each. His responsibilities there have been taken over by Christoph Gutjahr. Don't forget to announce your new Amiga websites in the Amiga Link Directory. Gerhard "Gary7" Schmid ceased his activity as moderator of the "classified advertisements" forum. His successor is Martina Jacobs, who returns to amiga-news.de. She had managed the English language section for three years. We thank our two departing coworkers for their commitment in the last years and wish them for the future all prosperity!

Update of Hollywood Game TriMa'gic
The Hollywood game TriMa'gic has reached version 1.0 for 68k, WarpUp and MorphOS; the wishes of Tristan Mangold (TriMa) have been realized.
New developments are that sounds have been added, one can right-click to turn in the other direction as well, and because someone who preferred it asked for it, the game may be skinned to the darker original version. It comes with both skins. To do this some bugs with the ring-selection were overcome.
Along with the main page (under the title-link) there's a mirror.
The author thanks Tristan Mangold for his game skin, his idea and the suggestions for improvement and wishes everyone a happy celebration and a great New Year.
