Nearly every game that has a mouse renders a mouse cursor manually. At least all the ones I've played. I quick search on youtube for "rts gameplay" shows this is true. The point is, 1 it's unrelated to mouselock, 2 you can implement it on top of mouselock for now. If that's too slow for your app and there's a huge need something else can be added later. > > But again, this seems like an unrelated feature. > > -- > Glenn Maynard > > >
