Cursor appears dark in game
When using a custom cursor, it appears much darker in game than in the inspector/photoshop. I've tried turning off all camera effects which didn't seem to make a difference. I also messed around with global lighting which didn't seem to have any effect.
Hey @slushieboy99, can you also upload the cursor image itself? I have a theory that maybe the cursor isn't fully opaque, so the background bleeds through the cursor, making it appear darker.
I just tested it in front of a black background in Photoshop and it's definitely opaque, but here is the image file.
Yup, I opened it up in GI$$anonymous$$P and verified that pixel opacity is all at 100%, so much for that theory! I used your screenshot as a background in an otherwise empty project and added your custom cursor, and I can't reproduce the issue -- the cursor appears light like it should:
If the cursor works correctly in a new project for you too, then there must be some setting or something different in your game causing this... I think I'd need more info about your project to be able to come up with any other ideas.
