YoloMouse 1.9.1

This is a followup update with a few new features and some hotfixes for last update.

The mirror option (flip cursor) has been requested for a while and finally here. This should work with all cursors except the 3D ones which will supported in a future update.

Expert mode is to disable some noob features that some found annoying, like tooltips and the YM UI starting on launch.

Safemode forces YM to go full CPU mode (no GPU). This is mainly to fix issues on some systems. Note that any cursors that would have used the GPU will be quite laggy.

Otherwise several important fixes, especially with hotkeys and the create tab.

Some TODO items were pushed to next update due to the urgency of hotfixes in this update.

UPDATES
  • NEW: cursor mirror option
  • NEW: expert mode. currently this disables tooltips and disables showing the UI on launch.
  • NEW: safemode to disable GPU use. WARNING: this can make some cursors laggy.
  • UPDATE: slim down UI size to accomodate smaller resolutions and higher DPI settings.
  • FIX: unresponsive hotkeys
  • FIX: excess delay while spamming hotkeys
  • FIX: various editor issues (create tab) + polishing
  • FIX: in LOTR Online... and any other games that do janky cursor things ;)
  • FIX: dragging YM window getting stuck in some multimonitor setups

TODO
  • NEW: crosshair option: screensize lines crossing the cursor hotspot.
  • NEW: global resize option: will be size by % option under default cursor
  • NEW: compliance mode to prevent false positives on some AC setups like in The Finals.
  • NEW: pixel editor to basic and animated image editors
  • FIX: oversaturation of some cursors in HDR
  • FIX: hotkeys not working when invoked by apps like director
  • FIX: size consistency while cycling cursors using hotkeys

YoloMouse 1.9.0

This is a fairly big one thats been in the works for a while. It pulls in from our crosshair app YoloX which includes a new UI thats now consolidated including cursor picker, editor, and settings and adds various usability buffs.

Its possible some unreproducible issues like blackscreen reports were also fixed as related areas involved partial rewrites. Hopefully new bugs werent added ;)

Expect more frequent updates now as this huge update laid the groundwork for faster iteration and new features. The TODO list below is directly from feedback and should be ready in about a week in case you were expecting these in this one. But I'd rather let this large update live on its own for a few days ;)

Btw, if you find the tooltips annoying let me know and I'll add an option to disable them.

  • UI: new UI that consolidates cursor picker, editor, and settings. includes new features like app selection from cursor picker.
  • FIX: long list of known and possibly unknown issues.

UPCOMING

  • NEW: global resize option: will be size by % option under default cursor

  • NEW: compliance mode to prevent false positives on some AC setups like in The Finals.
  • NEW: pixel editor to basic and animated image editors

YoloMouse 1.8.5

Apologies this one took longer than it did. I was in the middle of an engine swap where the new engine happened to also be the fix for this and a long list of other issues... Then the NVidia update dropped which broke YM for a lot of folks and turned this into a top priority hotfix. This solves blackscreen for both the NVidia update and AMD GPUs.

FYI: The engine is used in an overlay to show 3D cursors but also all cursors with anticheat protected games. The new engine is custom, lightweight, and paves the way toward scripted cursors :)

Note: The pixelfire 3D cursor was temporarily removed to get this out sooner. If you miss it plz let me know so I can bump priority.

UPDATES
  • NEW: replace the engine behind the 3D cursors. now a super lightweight custom one.
  • FIX: blackscreen caused by recent NVIDIA update and when using AMD GPUs
  • FIX: due to engine replacement a long list of performance and other bugs were fixed. hopefully nothing new added ;)
  • UPDATE: reworked the 3D cursors as a result of engine update.
  • REMOVE: unfortunately pixelfire had to be removed to get this update out sooner.

UPCOMING
  • UPDATE: UI rework
  • NEW: achievements
  • NEW scripted 3D cursors
  • NEW: docs
