Description from the author on Modrinth

Custom Cursor

Replace your mouse cursor in Minecraft with anything you want.
A diamond sword, a rainbow arrow, a heart… or your own image!


Features

  • 11 built-in pixel-art cursors:

diamond sword, arrows (white, black, red, blue, green, gold, rainbow), crosshair and heart

  • Your own cursors: drop any PNG image into the mod's folder, click Reload, done
  • Adjustable size from 16 to 128 pixels
  • Click point of your choice: automatic, top-left or center (perfect for a crosshair)
  • Instant preview: the cursor changes as soon as you click a tile
  • Works in every menu: title screen, inventories, chests, options…

How to use

Open the cursor settings:

  • with the Cursor... button in the top-left corner of the Options menu
  • or with the K key in game (can be changed in Controls)

Adding your own cursor

  1. Click Open folder in the cursor settings
  2. Put your .png image in it (a transparent background works best)
  3. Click Reload and select your image

FAQ

My cursor disappears while I play?
That's normal: Minecraft hides the mouse while you control the camera. Your cursor shows up as soon as you open a menu or an inventory.

Does it work on servers?
Yes. The mod is client-side only: nothing to install on the server, and it changes nothing for other players.

Where are my settings saved?
In config/customcursor.json, and your images in config/customcursor/.


100% client-side. Works alongside other mods and resource packs.
