As the topic says. Mouse cursor is invisible inside the game screen. Obviously game is unplayable. Tested with both Ender and Standard client, fullscreen yes/no.

Took a quick look into HavenPanel.java (Ender):

Code: Select all

public HavenPanel(int w, int h, GLCapabilitiesChooser cc) {
>-------super(stdcaps(), cc, null, null);
>-------setSize(this.w = w, this.h = h);
>-------newui(null);
>-------initgl();
>-------if(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getMaximumCursorColors() >= 256)
>-------    cursmode = "awt";
>-------setCursor(Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().createCustomCursor(TexI.mkbuf(new Coord(1, 1)), new java.awt.Point(), "")
    }


The bolded check *will* fail, as getMaximumCursorColors() returns 2 under Unix systems. I don't see any fallback code, so the most likely culprit is that the cursor without awt capabilities does not work.

I got this problem, and i thought after so many months/year(s) it would be fixed?
sorry for being a necro but this was the only thing i could come up with.

i used to play 2-3 years ago

Same here. Arch linux 64 bit. Open jdk and open radeon driver and no mouse cursor

Well, the earlier analysis is wrong, at least; the fallback code is the default case, where the client draws the cursor manually. If that doesn't happen, I can only assume that Java for some reason does not return 2 maximum colors on your system but yet fails to set the hardware cursor properly. I can't say I know why that would happen, though; I only use Linux and have never had a problem with this.

Could you check what Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getMaximumCursorColors() actually returns on your system?

No problems on Ubuntu. Shot in the dark here, but you using java or icedtea?

IcedTea uses OpenJDK though, so that shouldn't make a difference.

Switched to oracle java but still no cursor. It shows up when loading the game but dissapears few seconds later.
