Problem viewing the mouse.

extonia · May 8th, 2006

Hi i'm new to Armada 2 and have noticed that there is no visible mouse to use when you want to select a ship, so i have to move the mouse slowly around until the ship flashes. Is this how it is meant to be or is there a way to sort out this problem. I have installed the patch but it hasn't made a difference. Its get very annoying when you want to quickly select a ship.
Thanks for any help
Ben

Sometimes when my game starts the same thing happens. The only way I've found to sort out it out is to restart the whole thing. But thsi only happens sometimes.

I believe I know what you mean, and it has happened to me (not a lot) but it has happened. I have to shut down the game, and the load it back up to solve the problem.

However, I can't ever say I've started a game with this problem, only sometimes when in the 3D mode, clicking quite a bit, it happens.

I (as of yet) don't know of a way around / to fix it.

Hey Guys, Thanks for replying. I managed to solve the problem, by going into the graphical settings and changing the Asynchronous Cursor from ON to OFF, or the other way around. I checked it a couple of times and if definately either makes the mouse visible or invisible. So i can actually enjoy the game now, which is nice.

Thanks away, and hopefully this will help anyone else who comes across this problem.
