F12 brings up the WinUAE window - This is the main button. It's your baby

Keyboard Layout A -

Numpad 8 = Up
Numpad 6 = Right
Numpad 4 = Left
Numpad 2 = Down
Numpad 0 = Button

Keyboard Layout B -

Cursor Keys for directional movement
Right CTRL (Both?) = Button

Keyboard Layout C -

No idea. I never use it

Note: When using Keyboard Layout B and you need the cursor keys to do something in a game, you're screwed (thats when you switch keyboard layouts)

When you boot the game, press F12, go on option Game and I/O ports, select Keyboard Layout "B" and then you can use cursor keys and right Ctrl. For more info about the other funcions you can learn here.http://www.amiga-gaming-world.co.uk/howtowinuae.htm

I only recommend UAE because that's usually what those new to Amiga emulation know about.

Most people have no idea about WinFellow (even though it's the better emulator when you want to play games)

I don't know if WinFellow is any easier to use. I have used WinUAE for a while, but the other day I downloaded WinFellow, and it sure looks nice but I don't seem to find any keys that work. I don't even find the fire button (CTRL doesn't seem to work). can anyone give me a list of the keys (or how to change the key setup if I wanna do that), or a link to a WinFellow guide like the guide about WinUAE? I need such a guide cause I also wanna find out how to make an hard disk file and put files onto it.

Case solved! I saw that I only had "mouse in port 1" and "nothing in port 2"... DUH! LOL! So now I got it to work fine, and just need to figure out the hard drive thing. Thanks!
