Plugin description:
This is a simplified version of the Phileas's Cursor plugin for those who do not need animated cursors and cursor changes when hovering over an event.

Changes the cursor image to any of the img/system.
Animated cursors are supported, details below.
Use png format!

To change the cursor to the standard one, do not select an image in the parameter/argument (option "(None)").

Plugin commands:
  • Change the default cursor
  • Change the battle cursor
  • Change the menu cursor
  • Hide cursor
  • Show cursor
The settings set by the plugin command are saved along with the game progress.

You can also switch the invisibility of the cursor by pressing the keyboard, mouse and gamepad keys.
To do this, configure the plugin settings. If you want to specify a key by a string name, set 0 to the number value.

You can configure the preloading of cursor resources. This will speed up the switching of cursor images, but it may slow down the launch of the game.
Images from the basic cursors (default, battle and menu) are always cached.
If preloading of maps is disabled, the map event commands are cached when loading this map.
If the preloading of general events is disabled, the commands of this event are cached when it is called.

If the cursor image is not displayed, try to reduce its size.
