Cursor getting transparent (and how to fix it temporarily)

Postby displaced » Mon Jan 01, 2024 8:24 pm

Since the latest client update, there's an issue affecting only a small portion of people (mainly Ryzen based laptops with NVidia cards I assume).
It's super annoying and it apparently has to do with the "OpenGL GDI compatibility" mode in the NVidia settings.
When it's set to auto or performance, the cursor is transparent and hard to see. Once you set it to "Prefer compatible" it's okay again.
I'm not a 100% sure why this happens, but I guess it has something to do with the addition of the AWT library and moving rendering to the AWT thread.

@Devs
I'm willing to help fix that, because I guess it's not an Issue you can easily replicate yourself if you don't have the hardware to do so.

PS: Yes it happens on Vanilla. I checked that before I posted it here.
And to make things more funny, if you open OBS to record your screen, the mouse is normal.
So you cannot even capture it except with a photo of your Screen like a retard.
