    win8 problems

    The cursor will not display for any versions of zelda classic or zquest on my windows 8.1 laptop (yes I've tried all of them). Is there a fix for this? It's a total tease when 2.10 finally works on a modern age system but not the cursor (which won't work on any and all builds of 2.5 either)

    Are you sure about this? I use ZC and ZQuest 2.5 on my Windows 8.1 Desktop and Laptop almost every day and I've never had an issue with the cursor. The only issue I've had is displaying in full screen, but that's not a big deal.

    He's sure. He tried to use different drivers and I know one different generic one worked in ZC but of course worked crappy normally.

    I'm trying to get Zelda 2.50 RC3 to work on my new Windows 8.1 64 but desktop. I cannot get it to play full screen properly. The game is there but the screen flashes a blue color and there's a black rectangle that in on the left side of the screen. I can play it through the ZC Launcher but only in a small window? I posted over at PureZC but no one seems to know about this. Any suggestions would be much appreciated as I really don't want to play it in a small window.
    Thanks in advance

    Probably the best you could hope to do is run it in a larger window, but not fullscreen.

    You can set the window resolution in ZLauncher.

    Thanks Tim but it's too not worth playing in such a small window. I'll just go back to playing it full screen on my laptop.

    You can set the window size to any dimensions you want in 2.5. If ZLauncher isn't working you can just set resx, resy in the config file.
