I’ve got KQ6 running nearly-perfectly (the colors get all garbled for a bit at seemingly random times o.O), but one thing really bugs me (I’m using Windows XP SP2). The cursor’s graphic doesn’t update/refresh unless you move it outside of the window and back again. For example, if the walk icon is currently selected and displayed in the window, right-clicking will cycle it to the next action (hand, I think?), but it will still look like the walk icon, even though it will function correctly as the hand icon. Basically, the game doesn’t “redraw” the cursor to reflect changes that the player makes. This adds a lot of frustration to the game as I have to constantly move the mouse in and out of the window just to be sure of what I’m doing (it’s especially annoying, when you’re trying to use inventory items).
Has anyone else had this problem, and if so, any ideas on how to fix it?
