Mouse issues

February 22, 2006 2:41:48 PM from GalCiv II ForumsGalCiv II Forums
I've got a problem. While in the game my mouse pointer freezes after about 10 minutes of playing. Im not sure if this is a problem caused by the game, but it only happens when im playing galciv 2. Everything still works fine, and I can still click on things, but I have to find them without a pointer, because it is frozen in the same place. Anyone have any suggestions.

Restarting is the only thing (that I can find) that fixes the problem. but when I get back in the game its only about 10 minutes of playing time before it freezes again.

Try switching to a hardware cursor under Video Options. It made things work a little better for me, although I'm still having issues with ALT-TAB and anti-virus pop-ups killing my session.

I'm just glad the autosave is fast...Otherwise, I would have stopped playing altogether.

I turned off my pointer shader, and im not having the problem anymore. I also enabled the system pointer like you asked. It seems to be working now so either of these things could have fixed it
