    DirectX 8 Mouse Flicker

    Hi,

    Ive attached some code that i wrote to make a simple dx 8 window. In Full screen mode it runs fine but in a desktop window the mouse is all flickery inside the window. Is this me or the code?

    I have attached the cpp code.

    Cheers

    it's because you're constantly repainting the window...you should probably just hide the cursor and replace it with something in your program that follows around the cursor position, then when it leaves the window unhide it.
