Mouse Pointer vanishing in Fullscreen Mode

[bl4ckj4ck777]

Yes. I read a few pages as well and it's the same issue. It's not a vista issue or it would be present in many other games. It's not. That narrows it down to a coding in final fantasy XIV. Which means they have to come out with a bug fix in an update. However, since it hasn't been looked at so far with thousands of posts on a single thread about it since beta 1, I highly doubt it will ever get resolved.

This sucks for me in particular since in borderless window it has other sound issues, like the channels are mixed with my desktop sounds so that I hear none of the game music until I go out of the game into my desktop, then it sounds beautiful. You can see how that might be frustrating considering the other downgrades in performance previously mentioned about the borderless window selection in this thread.

So just to recap, borderless window is glitchy, and underpowered (framerate wise). Full screen is missing mouse functionality on vista, and for some reason, no one at square enix could give a single shit.

And of course I had to buy a hard copy of the game to even play it in the first place. So just because I have vista, this game becomes virtually unplayable, at least with any sound, or a mouse. Talk about missing a big target of your marketplace and shitting on your customers when they have been telling you about the problems since beta. Fuck you square enix.

bump, do you guys not care about a complete game-impairing bug that is in official release? Is is it really that hard to tell us when it will be patched?

[Entrok]

bump. My curiousity is abuzz. For you legacy folks, was this an issue before?

[Syamic]

This was an issue in beta and still nothing done about it.

Bump, I dont think il resub until this is fixed, it was annoying me too much. Which is a shame because i like the game.

I feel the same way about a re-sub. Mostly because I've felt abandoned and they don't care to resolve this.
With my old computer I can't run it in windowed bec the extremly low fps (9~) and in a small window I can get it to 20 fps. In fullscreen its about 29-34 fps but then I wont have a mouse pointer.

A mod replied saying it will be fixed on 2.1… http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...=1#post1190351
