Hi I am currently developing an FPS game and the menus are all fine, the only thing that is missing is the mouse cursor...well I had the idea of making an TGA image and make my own cursor, but the only way I founded was in the Nehe Code(the picking) but I want to do make an image in the cursor position without using the Ortho mode can someone please help me !!!! remember no ortho that is very important. Thank you for your attention. "Of all the things I''''ve lost I miss my mind the most." - Ozzy Osbourne

When you not use Ortho mode then draw a quad (z postion of every corner = 0.0f) and map it with a texture.

Hi

Ok, seems to me that you want to make the firing cursor that player will use to shot the guns. Well, in fact you can use the Ortho to draw the image in the center of screen and then, using the perspective, see to where are you shooting, heighter using gluProject or the selection matrix. You can find tutorials at GameTutorials, nehe and msdn.....

Hope this helps you
