Mouse Pointer in original Sims.. - Eminutia - 09-12-2008 05:41 AM

Hey all! I just joined this forum. A little bit about myself: I'm 30, been playing games for over 22 years, and love them. I just re-installed The original Sims on my computer, after 5 years of not playing it. I never finished it, and intend to this time. But on to more pressing matters:

I started the game, and my mouse pointer keeps disappearing! I know it's not a technical problem, because the buttons still highlight when I roll the invisible pointer over them. So it's a graphical problem. Is there a patch I can download for this? I would love to play this game without having to guess where my mouse is all the time! Thanks Big Grin

If you are registered to the official sims 1 site, you can download patches here; http://thesims.ea.com/us/index.html?menu=getcool&content=getcool/

Unfortunately there are only 3, one for the deluxe edition, one for hot date & one for unleashed. Smile

YAY! I'm not the only Old Person on here! (I'm 27)

I had that happen to me before.  I had to uninstall and reinstall and then it was fine.
