Closed FrederikPos closed 4 years ago

FrederikPos commented 4 years ago

hello, I am trying to apply an animated cursor but it will just give the normal mac os x cursor Idk how to fix this pls help? here is proof

Maybe you have too many frames - 28 are too many.. 24 is better as the max.

I just tested on one of my existing capes byt having the animated Busy cursor be the regular Arrow and that worked a treat. A bit confused myself..

24 just makes it scroll between frames

FrederikPos commented 4 years ago

and even fewer frames make it worse

ghost commented 4 years ago

I haven't been able to go anywhere above 28 frames my self as Mousecape tells me that I can't type in a larger number than 24. That's what I am saying.

I can't tell if you are using a Retina Mac?

FrederikPos commented 4 years ago

I am using a retina mac I couldn't do any other stuff for my animated cursor to be able to work/show on mousecape so I dragged the gif into mousecape and it let me use 28 frames because the gif has 28 frames anyways idk what is happening?

FrederikPos commented 4 years ago

ok I only put in 24 frames and it works now sorry for wasting time

Hi, sorry for reviving an old thread but this is still an issue. A workaround for anyone else finding this is to use a divisor of the amount of frames that is below 24 and increase the frame duration to make up for it. E.g. one of my cursors had 60 frames, so I used 20 frames and multiplied the duration by 3
