[isboxer] mouse repeating pointer not showing up

[defactoman]

When i activate mouse broadcasting I notice the mouse pointers in the slave windows don't show up, is this something someones found a way to get to work?

From Lax's FTL walkthrough:

This walkthrough assumes you have used the Quick Setup Wizard, and that your Character Set has the "Make game believe it is foreground window" option enabled (this option is required for mouse broadcasting in Rift!).

I should of offered more details heh my bad. I used the wizard to make the team using the Rift pre-set from version 38. Mouse broadcasting works and the option to make fake mouse pointers is selected, however the cursor isn't there. When i move my mouse over a button, everything hi-lights like the mouse should be there but it isn't. When first activating mouse broadcasting i notice it for a split second before it vanishes.

Yeah, I never see a fake cursor on the alt screens. It sucks.

The good news is that it's still two weeks until launch time--Plenty of time to get some support for Rift-specific options.

Okay the weirdest thing just happened, something on my system triggered the virtual mouse pointers for the other windows (they looked plain and white) then the game crashed due to a server shutdown. When i restarted the mouse pointers are once again not showing up, but everything else about mouse broadcasting works.

When you other innerspacers use mouse broadcasting, do you see your virtual cursors and are they plan white?

You aren't. I've only ever seen the mouse cursor show up when I moused over an NPC with a repeatable quest. The mouse icon showed up as the green circle, and disappeared when the move moved away from the NPC.

The ability ground sprite works so it doesnt bother me so much. Just WTB interact with target so annoying trying to click quest givers.
