Animated Cursor bug

Post by BIYA »

I have been recently making my own cursors. But when I play bzflag the cursor either disapears or its a textured block. The screenshot is attached.

I couldnt get a screenshot of when it is a block for some reason. But this is when the cursor is gone. Its extremely hard to play without a cursor..

most cards don't support an animated hardware cursor when it's doing openGL 3d rendering. Check your drivers. But realy it's not the best thing to do, cursors clip the drawing regon in wierd ways and can cause large slowdowns on many cards.
