Mouse Cursor

Hi,

me again! I've been looking thru the archives here but cannot seem to find out EXACTLY how to change the mouse cursor. Could someone plus supply some sample code. Also how can I use mousex(),mousey() and position an object in the 3d world that matches the actual mouse position... Cos that way I could use an entity for the mouse cursor.

Thanks.

Parent a sprite just infront of the camera to the camera.
Then use mousexspeed and mouseyspeed to move it around x and y.
divide x and y by a few numbers until it feels right.

You end up with something like (totally untested)...

cam=createcamera()
cursor=createsprite()
moveentity cursor,0,0,1
entityorder cursor,-100

repeat

xx#=mousexspeed()/divide number
yy#=mouseyspeed()/divide number
movemouse graphicswidth()/2,graphicsheight()/2

moveentity cursor,xx,yy,0

updateworld
renderworld
flip

until keyhit(1)
