cant see my mouse, so i cant move

[patw]

hey, i recently downloaded adventure game studio and followed the steps in the manual about making your first room, and testing it out. Ã, i followed all the steps, and yet, when i test my room/game out, it will not allow me to see my cursor (when i move the mouse over the window with the game, i cant see it) and when i click on the screen nothing happens, my character wont move.
please help asap

ps. i searched as much i could as many resources as i could

thanks in advance

Well, if you used the "Empty Game" template instead of the "Default" one, it is possible that you don't actually have a cursor graphic defined.
Go to the "Cursors" tab and see if you have any cursor images loaded. If you do, start a new game using the default template, load the room in that game and see if you have a cursor there.

So, to solve this problem either draw some cursor graphics and import them in the "Cursors" tab, or use the default template.

Have you tried playing in full screen?

[patw]

yep, ive tried full screen. no results

[Goldsmith]

Tried with another room? Tried changing the cursor graphics?

[patw]

yep, tried that, still nothing...

Make sure you haven't accidently created a command for hide mouse cursor.

And additionally, have you tried playing any AGS games? Did you see the mouse cursor there?

If you didn't, then it could be a good idea to upgrade DirectX and your video card drivers to the latest version available.

Or how far are you in your game? Try starting again.
