Does anyone know how to hide the mouse pointer during gameplay?
Hi! Does anyone know how to hide the mouse pointer during gameplay (ACT)? Ideally, I want to disable the mouse control.

It does involve purchasing a MOD in iFAction store called Change Cursor Pattern Mod for 5 F-Coins.

Load the MOD into your project and then change this line 7:

changeMouseV.mouseImage = "System/ChangeMouse/mouse_0.png";

Then go into your project folder and find the Graphics/System folder and there should be a sub-folder called Change Mouse.

There is all the images, find the one that says mouse_0 and open it in any graphical editor that supports transparency like GIMP2 (free to download) and simply delete the cursor so you have a blank image.

Then overwrite the image save and you should have a blank mouse (no mouse) displaying on screen anymore. I just tested it since I already own that MOD and it does work.

There will be some kind of script command to hide the mouse control (unfortunately I don't know it and don't know any coding whatsoever) but...

You can disable the mouse controls by going into the UI editor and erasing all the ExecuteWhenMouseOver etc commands associated with the Skill buttons so that the player must use the keyboard and not the mouse to execute them.

WARNING: Messing around in the UI editor can lead to errors. Back-up your project before attempting it!

Thanks, I just edited the UI to not use the mouse. But I still haven't found the script command to hide the mouse pointer. My game runs in full screen mode and the pointer is visible all the time. It looks unprofessional and not nice.

I wish I could help you more but unfortunately that's as far as my knowledge goes.

Don't expect any help from the devs either, in the past year they have disappeared without a trace.

I think your best bet is taking a look at the script commands, but I'll warn you again to back-up your project before attempting any changes. Hope you can get it sorted.
