its easier/harder than you think

step 1 - hide mouse
ooooo that takes a whole command

step 2 - display a sprite at current mouse position
oooo that takes a whole command too

that should get you going a wee bit.

mee too:

but the best way is to create a plain and texture it (I think), dark basic's 3d commands are faster than it's sprite commands

`Doesn't matter really, but this is how *****I**** would do it.

sync on
sync rate 0

`Can't believe I actually *FORGOT* this first time round..
hide mouse

`299 can be whatever, mouse.bmp can be whatever
load image "Mouse.bmp",299

do
`Activate black=transparent option
paste image 299,mousex(),mousey(),1
sync
loop

That's what I'd do. As long as your cursor started at exactly the top-left corner of the mouse.bmp bitmap, it would be PERFECT. Included is my favourite mouse cursor I made. ^_^

(So it's a PNG. Who cares? It works, right?)

How's my typing? Phone 0800-GO-TO-HELL
