Change Cursor and Game Icon

[WiseRock]

EDIT: Cursor Files have to be .24 bit .ico and .cur if you follow Way 2

EDIT: Use IconArt great program!

Way 1 is Easiest but try to go with Way 2

EDIT: I recommend you follow way 1

Way 1

Go to Control Panel

HardWare and sound

Go to Mouse

Go to Pointers

Find the Cross Picture

and replace it with your new cursor

then go to vb

go to MousePointer and replace it with cross

Your Done!

Way 2

I dont know if theres a tutorial on this but here you go.

Cursor

First you need to get a .cur file Must be 24 bit!

Second. Go to your frmMain, properties

Third. Find MouseIcon and click the … button

Fourth. Select your cursor

Fifth. Go to MousePointer right under the MouseIcon

Sixth. Scroll all way down till you find the 99.Costum

Thats all

Icon

Follow Step 1 and 2

3.Go to Icon and select your icon

It has to be ico. I think it will accept cur though

These have been tested and they do work 100% if you follow Way 1

These have been tested and they do work 100% if you follow Way 2 with a 24 bit .cur file

Thats because the Tut is incorrect…

You cant use any cursor file... vb6 cant handle 32Bit??? check at google

[Dr.House]

Yup i converted it to 24bit, now works
