Prevent insim showing mouse cursor? - Carl - 2016-05-19 22:24

Hello,

So I don't know much about insim or what's actually possible but let me explain. I enjoy playing TC with my mouse but the insim overlay prevents my mouse cursor from being hidden. Using shift+z doesn't work with an insim overlay by the way.

If I wanted to record my gameplay or something it does tend to get in the way and can get a little frustrating. Is it possible to have a command to toggle the cursor on/off?

What program do you use to record mate? I use fraps and that has a option to prevent the cursor from showing when recording.

Hey mate, you might be looking for "!setopt force_mouse 1". I hope this could help you. =)

Jorgen is correct.
The feature you're suggesting already exists.

LFS also let's you hide the cursor with: shift+Z

Shift-z works unless there is a clickable button on the screen. Ie. the SOS button. The option shown above removes all clickable buttons, but there can still be other clickable buttons made by other Insims.

I wasn't aware of this feature, thanks for the help.
