Mouse Pointer issues (Solved) Just make your pointer larger.

Jharym

Hi. Anyone having a double pointer situation?
An inactive one, at the position the active one was at when the thing goes wrong (if you get my drift)
Also, the active one has a square of white that it is in?
Any help appreciated.

Let me guess, you are running High Sierra? If that is the case then for square issue there is no real solution except installing either older system or Mojave.

I have Mojave, recent install.
Did have the spinning toon issue, sorted that out. Have good FPS.
Just have this inactive pointer thing going on, strange.

I have the same issue. Also sometimes the active cursor goes invisible when the inventory is open, though the inactive cursor double is still there.
I also have Mojave.

Same issue - but only on my MacBook. My iMac is just fine.

Sometimes the cursor is there, sometimes not. Sometimes it picks up part of the background with it, sometimes not.

Sometimes I just want to chuck ESO out of the window and play something else. Murkmire has exacerbated those feelings.

Well, that's nice.
It's far worse now.
It is for me anyway.
How about you lot?
Seriously, anyone have any ideas how to fix this?
Zenimax? Apple? A kid? Help?

By Jove! I think I've cracked it.
I think the game wants/needs you to start in windowed fullscreen, so if you don't, it plays merry hell with the pointer.
However if you switch to fullscreen when playing, the two cursor problem stops. It's still a right pain in the 'arris in the "chose character then click play bit" but once you are past that it seems fine.
Didn't play for long, just moved toon about and picked up me free stuff.
I think other people had other issues due to this fullscreen thing.
Good luck all.

I'm still having the double cursor issue, even after trying the suggestion above.

Although, i have figured out that a way to make an invisible cursor visible again is just to move it all around the screen for a couple of seconds. (not sure if the "shake mouse pointer to locate" accessibility setting makes a difference for that or not)

Increase the Cursor Size /Settings/Accessibility

@cadashes. Right, I'll have a look at that this evening. Thanks.
@rluke. Danke. Ich werde mir das heute Abend anschauen. (Ich hoffe, dass das stimmt?)
