Is it Possible to Set a Larger Mouse Cursor Size on 4K Monitors?

The mouse cursor size is fine up to 1080P, but I recently switched to 4K resolution and now my mouse is almost microscopic, and extremely hard to see with all the particles, snow, rain, ash, and other special effects.
Windows has the capability to adjust the mouse size, but ESO apparently doesn't use Windows settings.

Is there a setting like : SET MouseSize "2" or similar that can be added to the ini file to increase the mouse size to an acceptable level?

    Another thing that annoys me with 4K monitors is that the map doesn't scale properly. Sometimes it's really hard to see those small POI icons, especially in Eastmarch when it's white on white :)

    I wonder if there are at least plans in the works to address issues with higher resolutions?

    I got the same problem after upgrading to a new 4k monitor. The ingame cursor is so damn small now even after scaling the interface larger, I keep losing track of it. Can we please get an option to make the cursor bigger maybe? Please.

    Same. Just got a 4k UW monitor and the mouse is extra tiny. On top of that, I have vision problems so it's EXTRA hard for me to see it. Everything is an upgrade for me except being able to see where tf my mouse cursor is on the dang screen. Help the visually impaired!

    Same problem here with 4K - I've looked through the add ons and the game settings and it seems that nothing has changed in the past 5 years.

    I use addons for custom reticle and there you can set size you desire.
    Check Combat reticle on ESOUI

    I tried Yolomouse program this morning to help with the 4K tiny mouse problem.
    When I changed the cursor it would initially be larger. When I opened up another menu the cursor would revert back to the original tiny cursor.
    So no help here continued eye strain it is.

    In your windows taskbar, search for mouse settings. Then use the adjust your mouse size to get what you want. As far as the BanditsUI, yeah it will adjust as well.lrko98jtkki0.png

    Greetings,

    We have closed this topic as it was originally created in August 2015. In many cases, it's better to create a new thread on a topic that you want to discuss as opposed to bumping one that is rather old.

    Thank you for your understanding.
