Viewing/Play Issue

Post by spawnshank »

As I'm playing the game, I can create a character, and get started in the game, but I don't have a cursor as I'm playing and it makes playing much, much more difficult.


If anyone could offer a solution as to what I could do, that'd be great. :D

try shift+f9. if it works, then you can make it permanent in ingame configuration under inputs/mouse/hardware

.. but if both keyboard and mouse does not work (you dont have control over your char), then.. hmm.. i have never had that one, so dont remember what's the solution sorry. you may try alt-tab (while game is loading maybe) and/or try to run Ryzom in windowed mode.

Thanks Blaah, I tried that, but it didn't work. :(

I'm fairly sure it can recognize my keyboard because I can create a character and name him, it's just that the cursor isn't visible. It's still technically there, just not where I can see it.

The problem is, this isn't the only game it happens with... and I haven't a clue as to where to go with it. :(

close Ryzom if it's running, then go to ryzom install directory (by default it's c:\program files\ryzom) and locate client.cfg
open it with notepad and add this line at the end

Code: Select all

HardwareCursors={};
(it's case sensitive, so big H and C)
save and try again (try shift+f9 ingame if mouse cursor is still not visible, white mouse cursor should be appear)

if this does not work... i dont know what will ;-(

Dang... :(


I did what you said, and copied that command directly as typed, and put it at the end of the prompt, nothing changed.

Except that, when I click play [with no visible cursor, but a selected character, because I can still do that], sometimes as I sat there listening to crickets, an image of "A computer with a wire, leading to an x" appeared. Gahh. I want to play badly. D:
