So, here's the story up until now, I've been working on a project with a few people to make a new mod for FL...and I've done the HUD recolour, but i'm struggling with the Cursors. I've managed to change the main mouse cursor:
IPB Image

but the other cursors in game im struggling with...can anyone help me out...If your not quite sure which ones I mean, here is a picture highlighting the ones I want to change:

Now, I've tried to reshape them, and it works (if I remember rightly). So i'm guessing that the colours (and/or the shapes of these cursors) are hard coded...although, I may be wrong

EDIT: The crosshair on the circle is an attempt to edit...and It didnt work

It should be possible to change it in the mouse.ini. No guarantee on cheat detection or whatever, I have never used it. I also heard that you may need extra software like Freelancer SDK to display and/or modify the mouse.ini.

Having looked at mouse.ini...i dont see any way to change it. thanks for trying though =]
Ice-H
SDK 1.3b
Download and use on your own risk of course: http://eoa.seriouszone.com/louvadeus.php#flsdk
I'm sure that you will get kicked on servers other than your own if you change the .ini files.

Maybe its better to ask admin if you can use this.

i've looked (again)...still no way to change the colour...=[

EDIT: apart from the sections that say "color = 255......"

Read a bit more carefully people, he said he's making a new mod.

IE: Not Disco.

look at the example .ini relevant stuff for this is in red, you can add colour information for pretty much any section.
I was fully aware of the fact that he needs it for his own mod, but somebody else could have the idea to use it elsewhere, hence my warnings.
DestroyerOfWorlds
Ok, I got it...thanks for your help Ice and co.

now the next problem is:

color = 135, 195, 224, 255

obviously that is not simple RGB...what is the fourth value? (or first...i dont know which order it goes in)
McNeo
Cyan Yellow Magenta Key
CYMK most likely...

^ Thats a best guess.
DestroyerOfWorlds
Thanks =]

EDIT: wait...how does that convert from a percentage into a RGB value?
Ice-H
The numbers are R G B Transparency, 255 is opaque.
DestroyerOfWorlds
Ah, thanks again.

I may aswel keep this topic and ask my next question. LOL.


Now I've coloured it, how do i reshape it...I've tried editing MIP0 of cursors.txm, but no luck.
