Strategy: graphics card patch for Sim City 2000
Tobias “MastaTabs” Seiler has created a patch for SimCity 2000 that makes the classic game playable on modern graphics cards. Although there were already known workarounds to make the game run on RTG screens, Seiler’s patch removes the internal restriction to a resolution of 640x512 pixels. In addition, the latest version of the patch fixes two minor bugs in SimCity 2000. (cg)

Point'n Click adventure: patch fixes problems in "Star Trek: 25th Anniversary"
A patch published on Aminet replaces the mouse cursor - which was originally implemented in software - in Interplay's point-and-click adventure Star Trek: 25th Anniversary with a hardware sprite, thereby resolving various performance issues such as a slow-to-respond or flickering mouse cursor. It also fixes a crash that occurs when exiting the program under AmigaOS 3.2, as well as a stack problem. (cg)
