Explain the issue you are having:
My cursortrail disappears...
If I restart osu it's back but it disappears after a couple of minutes/hours again
I have to restart osu over and over again :l..


Is it reproducible? If so, explain the steps to do so:

1. Do something
dl my skin
2. Do something else
use it
3. osu! explodes in a million pieces!
exactly : p


Include any relevant video or screenshots, and hardware information for hard crashes or lag issues:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/66929634/cursor.rar
(I use the 2xsized cursor)

My osu! settings=
direct X
120fps
1280x800 res
hit lighting and shader effects are turned on

Use skin's sound samples checked
Always use skin cursor checked
Force slider rendering checked
Show judgement line checked

I don't turn on prefer new default skin because I think that makes my own spinner go away I mean osu uses the standard spinner if I turn this on -_-

please correct your cursortrail filename:
for 2x, filename for cursor trail is : cursortrail@2x.png
for normal, filename is : cursortrail.png

I made it something else because I don't use the small one
I use the 2x version
if I do what you said it will use the 1x version and not the 2x version
??

this happens to me too

it only happens to me when im using the new cursor trail. the issue doesn't happen to me when im using the old one
also the new cursor trail disappears whenever i toggle the extended chat (has a 30% chance of happening)

since you use 1280x800 or higher reso, then sprites will use @2x version if available.

I assume "cursor2x.png" and "cursor.png" is correct too
if so
that does not work
also my cursortrail that's being used is the small one if I do what you said
Is my osu bugged or did you say something that isn't right?

cursor2x.png really not work, always add @. all sprites you want to include for 2x always add @2x.png. example: default-0.png is default-0@2x.png for 2x size

This happens to me aswell, so it's not specific to this skin. New style custom cursor aswell.
And it has been happening for quite a while now, rarely.

Are you saying this is because we lack files for high definition sprites?

I will test it, however i'm still not sure what exactly triggers it. Just that nothing except a full restart will return it.

Edit: I managed to capture the missing trail, switched to deafult skin when it dissapeared as you can see its still gone even after switch.


Edit2: Adding high resolution sprites to my custom skin returned it without a restart when i switched back. This still does not seem like intended behaviour.

I believe this is the cause:


This setting requires certain sprites to have high resolution versions or this happens. Rather than normally what should occur is that the game substitutes the missing sprites with the deafult ones if im not mistaken.


Sorry i need to read more carefully.

The problem seems to be simply lack of high resolution sprites regardless of skin style used. The game will attempt to use high resolution sprites even when none are present.

ok. if still persist, i dont know if this work but check your osu!<myname>.cfg and look for a keyword highdefinition, change value from 1 to 0.

If that doesnt work, installing these files to your skin should fix the problem if im not mistaken.

The names were the same, the files were diffrent. The @2x are completely new made by myself. I apologize for poor quality, i'm an amateur at image editing.

Technically your files DID work, they were just wrong size.

I'm having the same issue, and I have no idea what is causing it. It's not the high-res files causing the issue, as I have both standard-size and 2x pngs for all 3 parts of the cursor in my skin.

Use the template from this thread:
t/129191

@2x files should be twice as large as the standard ones.

If thats the case, then i really don't know either :? hopefully this issue gets more attention.

2 pages and nobody actually searches? This is a known bug.

There should be a reminder somewhere telling people to look through low-priority before reporting a bug...

is there a way to prevent this bug? the visibility of my cursor depends on my cursortrail

Avoid hitting F9 or going into spectate/replay. No other way for the moment, just restart osu! when it happens.
