Mamewah and Windows Games - Where's my mouse pointer?

[DreamWeb]

Hey guys.

I have Mamewah setup to run .link files for my Windows games.  The problem is... is that when I launch games such as Hamsterball and Gutterball... they play fine.. but I can't see my mouse cursor.  I can see the mouse cursor just fine if I run the games directly from Windows.

I'm sure it's a focus issue of some sort...  Anyone have any suggestions?  I've tried changing the Safelaunch and nodosbox settings with no luck.

Here is part of my .ini

------

### 0021.ini (mamewah v1.61) ###

emulator_title                            PC Games

### List Generation Settings ###
rom_path                                  c:\systems\pc
rom_extension                             lnk
dat_file                                 
nms_file                                 
catver_ini_file                           
list_generation_method                    rom_folder

### Execution Settings ###
emulator_executable                       PC
commandline_format                        "[name].[romext]"{nodosbox}{nosafelaunch}
alt_commandline_format_1                  [name]
alt_commandline_format_2                  [name]

I haven't tried it, but maybe changing the show_cursor from 0 to 1 in the mamewah.ini will help.

Hey!  A good idea.

But, that didn't work.  I mean.. yes, it showed the cursor in the Mamewah menus.. but, even with that.. the cursor didn't show up in my Windows Games (unless I was hilighting an actual menu selection inside the game).  Hamsterball and Gutterball for example.

Add the {cursor} flag to your commandline_format.
