Asheron's Call cursors version 1.1

Update: A day after the original release, heres a new version. Glyphs included to replace the common "hourglass busy" signal thing, each glyph is here, except for the Atlan Claw. I got way to much demand to release these so I will just release them now, finish the claw and work on some more stuff. IF ANYONE has ANY ideas, PLEASE e-mail me ... and if someone wants to host me since Geocities sucks, I would love it. :)

Update: FIXED SWORD (looked like a chainsaw), FIXED AXE (looks 100 times better), AND fixed other various abnormalities. Expect more in next version.

I simply made these out of realizing there is no good mouse pointers (at least I have came across) that relate to my addiction of Asheron's Call. I made these in the period of a few nights, what is included and how to install follows. 

If there is enough feedback and interest I will continue this as a on-going series possibly getting into more detailed stuff and animations possibly. What is included here is merely just each Atlan Weapon with it's appropriately colored stone to replace the mouse pointer. 

Note: All weapons, except for the Atlan Claw are here (due to technical issues mainly top left would be where it clicks)

All ideas and images are copyright Turbine/Microsoft, and should these disrupt your computer system in any way - I take no responsibility. Only a idiot would screw their computer up with something as simple as a mouse cursor. :)

Installation:

Unzip the file w/ "Use Folder Names" option highlighted if using WinZip, hopefully if all goes to plan the files will extract to:

C:\AC-cursors\Read this!.txt
C:\AC-cursors\axes\
C:\AC-cursors\daggers\
C:\AC-cursors\maces\
C:\AC-cursors\spears\
C:\AC-cursors\staffs\
C:\AC-cursors\swords\

Each folder "should" (and I over-emphasize the word due to the fact this is my first time ever releasing something public) contain a file of each type called:

BLUE(weaponname).cur
RED(weaponname).cur
GREEN(weaponname).cur
PURPLE(weaponname).cur
NORMAL(weaponname).cur

Each color refers to the Atlan stone colors inside of the weapon, normal being a weapon without a stone.

Goto Start > Settings > Control Panel > Mouse

Under mouse there should be a few tabs at the top, click on Pointers and where it says NORMAL SELECT (default Windows mouse pointer) click on that and then on browse. Search for the folder that you unzipped to (Default - C:\AC-cursors\) and find the weapon and color of choice. The browse window will show you which each looks like before you apply them to your system and if you ever want to remove them.

Goto Start > Settings > Control Panel > Mouse

Goto pointer tab again, and then back on NORMAL SELECT click on Use Defaults. Good as new. I can't see why anyone would rather use the boring old default pointer though.

Enjoy and if you have any questions see bottom of document for how to contact me.

Notes:

Axe needs to be re-done. Swords stone is much to large. Claw needs to be changed a lot.

Other than that, they should be adequate and interesting enough.
