Mouse Flashing Annoying

Post by Cerdic »

Just started playing UOSA and my ingame cursor keeps flashing for no reason, it dissapears and reappears quickly as I move it. Very annoying and makes it hard for me to click things, any ideas why?

Thanks,
Cerdic

Not seen that problem with UO before. Whats your computer specs? I've had that happen with other games on my aging XP system but its normally been on full screen games (not windowed as I run UO). In my experience its always been down to another application running in the background trying to push its way on top. Steam games and the steam overlay being the no.1 culprit for cursor-stealing for me. Try disabling any other apps running in the background such as antivirus, media player etc and see if that solves the problem.

If that doesn't help I'm sure some other tech-savvy UOSAer will help you out.

Good luck and welcome to UOSA!

Try checking/unchecking "Run Mouse in Seperate Thread" in options.

This happens to me when I accidentally turn on "full screen".

If you are playing in full-screen, stop doing that, lol.

alt-enter toggles back and forth. There is also a client option.
