FAQ

My cursor disappears while I play?
That's normal: Minecraft hides the mouse while you control the camera. Your cursor shows up as soon as you open a menu or an inventory.

Does it work on servers?
Yes. The mod is client-side only: nothing to install on the server, and it changes nothing for other players.

Where are my settings saved?
In config/customcursor.json, and your images in config/customcursor/.

100% client-side. Works alongside other mods and resource packs.
