More customizable options = always better

/signed of course, always for more options.

As for your specific problem OP, I'm wondering if it's possible to edit the cursor to be bigger as part of a custom UI skin?

[RTN]

Sounds like a good idea with literally no downsides.

My specific suggestions: 1) a slider to control scale of cursor; 2) a color palette for cursor color; and 3) allow skins to change cursor shape/color/size.

I am visually impaired myself. I use a 37" TV at work and a 40" at home. HDTVs run at 1920x1080 so my cursor remains legible (as opposed to buying a large computer monitor where the resolution goes up making icons & text smaller).

And no, MadFloyd isn't saying 'buy a larger monitor'.

I have no idea how difficult it is to support a larger cursor but I'll investigate.

Im running a 32" & 22" off of a gtx580 vcard, And yeah, I can play around in a lot of ways, but for example, when ice strorm is cast, Im lost at any res.

You are the man! (even if you are a pats fan)

Excellent Madfloyd, happy to see somebody is looking into this. I have been losing my cursor for years now, sometimes it turns me into a "curser" when I accidentally close my healing hotbar in the middle of a fight like Stainer mentioned.

I've brought this issue up myself and would love the ability for Turbine to at least just pass through and use the built in Windows cursors if they don't want to mess with their own for accessibility. I also keep hoping MadFloyd gives us a "Let's Talk: UI" thread eventually too.

At my age that dinky little cursor is hard to find on my 24" screen!

DDO has one of the farkingest smallest mouse pointers I've ever seen.

It is even smaller than the default windows one!

Which is only going to get harder to see as resolution size goes up, but screen size remains the same.

If I could easier grab shots of video showing mouse size, I'd show you how much space windows uses compared to DDO compared to Champions Online. Their mouse is tripple windows normal, and in my opinion should be the standard size, and honestly at times I'd like one even larger.

/Signed with my full support, anything to help players of any ability, disability or playstyle is a win in my book.

Are you and Majmalphunction having some kind of "Lets see who can be the most helpful" bet?

Lolth thinks you are slightly ahead.

ALL HAIL!

[Agarwaen]

I'd love a bigger cursor too. I have no impairment and great eyesight, but I still lose my pointer on occasion. I'm playing on a 24" monitor, at 1920 x 1200 iirc. That cursor is tiny, and often gets lost in the heat of battle.

[Silverleafeon]

Yes, sometimes I try to click on a hotbar, but have to wiggle the cursor all over to find it.
