[REQ] - Replace glowing crew with cursor change

[capthelm]

figured i would create a thread on this, many sim heads do not like this effect in sh5.

remove crew glow effect, anyone that has the sim already could look into this one, see if we can disable that.
when i get my copy, its first thing i am doing. =remove crew glow

I beat Neal to it, http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/showthread.php?t=162050 . It was mentioned ten days ago in the Mods to do thread. The US/Canadian modders have an unfair advantage with their early release shennanigans!

Yep, this one is a modding must... I mean, since when did the type 7 have a nuclear reactor.

Or is the Cook serving up Ready-Brek when he gets to level 3?!

I can see the glow being easy to remove, but converting the cursor to something else... that might be tricky.

The videos show the cursor already changes from the pointer to a hand when it goes over a highlighted object. If that needs changed, cursors are just graphics files. SHIV has them in MouseCurs folder. This one is probably the same.

I hope the glow turns out to be as easy.

Oh weird, I read Neal's request as he wanted the cursor to change when he moved the mouse over a clikable object... Maybe he hasn't noticed, or the preview version didn't have it? I never noticed that in SH4, only the objects being highlighted.

if you look close the cursor does infact form into a hand i think as well. so no worries there.

just remove the crew glow.
