Mouse cursor: Linux vs Windows 10b - Fix in a future build

Post by XTC0R » Tue, 30. Apr 19, 17:12

Hello,

the mouse cursor on Linux is bold and ugly compared when starting the game from Win10. On my screenshots it might not look like an big issue. But when playing on linux it really disturbs me. Maybe prio Z for egosoft. But it still wanted to mention it.

I had to take the screenshots with my phone because the cursor is not visible on in game screenshot. Don't know why.

Not sure, but have you checked the DPI settings between them?

Which DPI you mean?

- DPI of the mouse is saved directly in the mouse and will not change for different OS or even computers.
- DPI (dots per inch) of the screen is the same. Same PC, same display, same resolution.

Looks more like the Linux version does not support the alpha shadows of the cursor.
I made Timon aware of the issue, but its sadly as you guessed very low on the priority list.

Thanks! I would prefer playing on linux but will wait till it's fixed. It looks a bit ugly with this bold cursor.
