Hello, my in-game cursor seems to have been vanishing at least once every day for the past few days and it's annoys me when questing, leading me to try to finish my current quest using my touch-screen laptop, then restarting the game quickly again. I'm worried that this will keep happening at least once a day, so I hope this problem can be fixed soon if it can be.
This happened to me for 5 days straight then the problem kinda just went away. Now it only happens once a week. It's still annoying cause when I log out to restart, my entire computer needs to be restarted due to it freezing. I'm glad it doesn't happen as often but it's still weird.
This happens to me occasionally as well. It's really weird. I don't know what "mouse tails" you are talking about because that sounds like a 1990s website thing. It's also weird because it's not consistent. I think generally it has to do when I change windows (but again only sometimes.)
Whenever this happens to me I always restart the game but if you can't then I suggest turning the mouse off in game settings; a mouse should appear but it'll be weird looking
This has been happening to me a lot as well, not during questing but PvP. Does it seem to happen after you've just logged on or many hours after? It's been my experience that this only occurs after I've been playing for a few hours. As a matter of dealing with it now, I just restart the game every three hours if I'm playing that long. After a certain amount of time, you're going to be logged off anyway so that the game can properly update, you'll notice a user time error. But yeah, just try to make it a habit to restart every few hours to avoid this, I'm not sure this is an error on Wiz101's part.
My cursor sometimes vanishes when switching between accounts while duel boxing. It's still there, just invisible. I can see the battle cards moving as I move it about but can't click accurately because I'm not sure where it is. It's been happening for over a year. I've not noticed it getting more frequent (or less frequent) recently but maybe there is a little issue with duel boxing that is now affecting players when they're using one account only?
It usually reappears when I switch between the accounts then back again, sometimes it takes a couple of attempts though. Have you tried quitting the character and hitting play again instead of completely exiting the game? If that works it would save having to log back. It might be worth trying going out of full screen and clicking on your desktop then clicking back on the wizard.
Sorry I am not being clear about how I get mine to reappear...I'm not very techy so randomly clicking stuff is often high up my short list of possible solutions!
My cursor disappears during card selection sometimes. When that happens, I move my mouse carefully around until I see the cards "pop up" as if I'm about to select one. Carefully, I click on any card that doesn't instantly launch, such as a wand blast or single hit spell. At that point, the cursor reappears.
Restarting will not fix this problem, since it's a bug in the game's interface.
Like Victoria, I've noticed it happens most often if I've switched between windows. This includes "dual-boxing," but also if I'm reading emails or fan fiction while battling. When I switch back to the W101 window, that's when I'm most likely to lose the cursor.
This issue only happens for me when Im multitasking. I do what everybody else does and move my mouse around and wait until a card shows as being pointed on (a non AoE spell so it doesnt automatically select it), then click it which brings the mouse pointer back. A friend of mine has this happen ONLY when he's running both of his accounts at the same time.
if not, i would try going to Start>Mouse>Pointer Options and turning off the trails.
I've never had it turned in when my issue happens (see my previous post). However, Mouse Trails should give you MORE cursors and not less. Does that feature conflict with the game??
