no mouse pointer

Nova · **Posted:** Mon Nov 06, 2006 2:10 pm

Is it possible to get rid of the little mouse pointer on the screen? (Maybe with setscreen?)
I want to make a game that uses the mouse but be able input my own so that it can change easily
Any help would be great

What can you do it with???

Anything with OS API (application programming interface) - Win32API in case of Windows. There are many libraries available: C/C++ and VB/C# come to mind.

What? No...

The only way to do this is to write a program to do this in another language, then run it from Turing using Sys.Exec().

Gandalf is right, that would be an excellent way of doing that. If u have another language like java at home or whatever then u could do exactly that but guessing ur probably only familiar with turing then theres nothing u can do.

wtf.. batman please stfu if you dont know what you're talking about. Java has no control over the windows API. Only MS products have that access.

I'll see if I can use the Sys.Exec()
