Cursor Not Moving
#1

I've put up with this for a while but I've tried all sorts to get it to work and cant think of anything else. Simply put, the SA-MP cursor texture does not move when I move the mouse, however it's just the texture. I can still click things but it requires me waving the mouse about for ages until the thing I want to click indicates it's being hovered over (doesn't help that the mouse isn't very good). The in-game San Andreas cursor works fine (I wonder why the SA-MP devs didn't just use the original code as an example?) and I can use everything, but it's annoying for the revolution of GUI in SA-MP these days

Things I've tried:
  • Rebooting
  • Re-installing SA-MP
  • Disabling the SA-MP config setting "multicore"
  • Shaking the mouse
  • Clicking lots of things and rapidly waving the mouse around in the menu
  • Clicking lots and rapidly waving the mouse around while playing
  • Rapidly tapping the TAB button (bad choice of button BTW SA-MP - it's a common key for playing!) to show and hide the player list / score board
  • Deleting SA settings file
  • Changing various SA settings to try different resolutions
  • Messing with graphics related system settings
  • Different servers
  • Any random idea posted online about similar but not the same problem (they couldn't use the mouse at all)
  • Ryosuke's Mouse Fix (actually for fixing menu mouse functionality but I thought I might as well try)
  • Not doing anything
  • Praying
  • Attempting to encourage the mouse by playing a flute, as inspired by the pied piper
  • Violent threats
  • Human sacrifice
I'm on a really old machine running XP. SP3, 1.6GHz, 960MB RAM, god knows what breed of on-board graphics... Really can't wait till I get my PC back...

I think it might be a SA-MP incompatibility with the oldness that is this computer. But if so then I will have to hope that a developer might be so kind as to add an extra 'if(!ancientPC)..else [more_oldskool_method]' somewhere in their custom cursor code.

Is the cursor texture moving when you're in the pause menu?

By the way, take a look at it.

Yes, I mentioned both that I had tried the multicore option and that the SA mouse works perfectly. It's purely a SA-MP problem.
