• YoloMouse 1.22.0 - 21 July 2026

  Added more basic cursors to better capture cursor meaning observed in various games. Then used these to create bundled presets for some popular games. Building these presets and finding every cursor, especially in WoW, was an adventure... but this uncovered several issues noted among buffs/fixes. Several games were also found without window cursor locking, so added a toggle for that 😊 UPDATES NEW: Lock Cursor to Window: Toggle (CTRL ALT L) to keep cursor in the active window. NEW: Added 22 basic cursors. Tweaked a few existing ones. NEW: Added shared preset "Large Glow" that makes everything large and glowy. NEW: Added basic presets for several popular games.

• YoloMouse 1.21.0 - 9 July 2026

  This one is mostly performance, polish, and fixes. Some new items include mouse sensitivity control and cursor upscaler control to allow retaining pixel art style 👾 Some reported cursors sometimes disappearing when ALT TABing for certain anticheat games. I couldn't reproduce this but made a few tweaks that may fix the issue. If you still see this happening (or a placeholder cursor showing), please let me know if you were using any non-default settings (like passive mode), how often the problem occurs, which game, and if it clears up from ALT TABing again or by other means. UPDATES 1.21.1: HOTFIX: Fix Linux crash NEW: Mouse sensitivity reduction. Default hotkey: ALT + middle mouse. NEW: Windows scale sync toggle for games/apps. Only shows if Window cursor scaling is on (over 1x). NEW: Cursor upscaler quality setting. For those wishing to retain pixel art style choose "Pixely". NEW: Impo…

• YoloMouse 1.20.0 - 12 June 2026

  The major update is Linux Proton support. There's some limitations due to various Proton restrictions like the game having to be Windows based. So consider this an interum version before full native Linux support 😎 To use start YoloMouse from Steam then a Proton/Steam game. If you see a pink arrow in taskbar then all is good and the usual YM flow should work 😊 The rest is a load of QoL, performance buffs, and fixes. UPDATES NEW: Experimental Linux Proton Support NEW: Presets: Add size override input when applying a preset. NEW: Cursor tab: Add app removal button NEW: Cursor tab: Add youtube help button NEW: Show notify badge on Cursor/Preset tabs when a new cursor or preset is added. NEW: Add languages: Japanese, French, Polish, Turkish, and Ukrainian BUFF: Improve sizing and related clarity issues. Also increased size limit to 512. BUFF: Expert Mode: Now also disables most prompts BU…

• YoloMouse 1.19.1 - 13 May 2026

  The major update here are VFX trails which took a good bit of effort to get the desired quality. You can find these under effects. Kudos to Frogski, the Plasma trail is inspired by his WoW mod 🍻 Otherwise added a formal multi-color version of that store page pointer cursor, and a language selector on the main menu. The rest is polish and some key fixes like Riot game support. For next update, after many asks and MS being MS 😉, Linux Proton support will be a priority. UPDATES NEW: Trail effects! Flame, Plasma, Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter included. NEW: Pointer cursor (seen in Steam page). NEW: Add language selection button to main menu (same behavior as taskbar one). BUFF: Windows cursor scaling setting now only applies to app:Windows cursors and not games/apps. This solves unwanted huge cursors and quality issues. BUFF: Generate a nicer preview when importing cursors from an exis…

• YoloMouse 1.18.3 - 7 April 2026

  This address some critical issues, in particular not working directly with League and cursor quality problems when windows pointer scaling is used. Also a fix for the UI being misaligned due to certain windows DPI settings. Snuck a glow polish in too 😁 UPDATES BUFF: Improve glow quality. Increase max distance to 30. FIX: Not working directly with League of Legends FIX: Blurry cursors when Windows cursor scale is set above default. FIX: Corrupt/artifacted original cursors when Windows cursor scale is set above default. FIX: UI hitbox problems seen when multimonitor DPI scaling is mismatched. Also simplified DPI scaling to stay consistent with the primary monitor setting. FIX: Fully transparent game cursors showing as black squares if resized (seen in Hearts of Iron 4 and Baldurs Gate 3). FIX: Support loading the hotspot from cursor files misconfigured as icon files. This fixes hotspot f…

• YoloMouse 1.18.2 - 28 March 2026

  This is a small one that includes mostly fixes to address recent feedback. Getting this out before the next large update focusing on streaks/trails and more. We also updated our Steam art to address many people thinking YoloMouse is some low budget game 😂 UPDATES QOL: Recall basic settings (size, glow, etc) while browsing different cursors in Cursor tab. FIX: If YM cant access a process, will retry a few times. Should fix a few games/apps with hiccups. FIX: Cursor artifacts in Baldurs Gate 3. FIX: Hotkeys not working in Hearts of Iron 4.

• YoloMouse 1.18.0 - 8 March 2026

  This involves a major rewrite and simplification of the core injection system which should clear up alot of edge case bugs and performance issues in various games. Then gave glow some color, made it generate faster, and available to regular cursors. For those who want to reuse existing game cursors in other games, try the edit button in Cursor tab while the original game cursor is selected 😎 This update was getting a bit large, so any promised requests have been noted in the TODO section and are priority for next update ❤️ UPDATES 1.18.1: FIX: Cursor reverting bug in WoW. Also fixes CTRL ALT C not working while this happens. 1.18.1: FIX: Potentialy fix cursor artifacting on some PCs 1.18.1: FIX: Improve cryptic app names for same games/apps 1.18.1: FIX: Cleanup old compliance files NEW: Add glow support for regular cursors NEW: Add color option for glow NEW: Add right click option to r…

• YoloMouse 1.17.0 - 23 February 2026

  This is mostly a polish update with QoL buffs and a socials push to improve support. I had a fixes and performance update planned, but its a bit large so wanted to split things up... expect that one in a week :) - see TODO section UPDATES NEW: Add lanugage support for: Traditional Chinese, Vietnamese NEW: Show notification when backgrounded (menu X button) NEW: Link a Youtube tutorial for a creating a basic cursor NEW: Add social links: Discord, Steam community, Reddit, Youtube NEW: Add subtle review nag after 8 hours of use BUFF: Various UI polish BUFF: Reset Settings: Add control over what's reset FIX: Don't keep the UI above all other windows.

BUFF: Update community cursors NEW: Hotkeys for preset…

• YoloMouse 1.16.3 - 12 January 2026

  Presets are a much requested feature that lets you quickly assigned pre-assigned cursors to a specific game or app. Applying a preset will automatically download any missing cursors. 2 initial presets and related cursors are included for app:Windows. Expect many more in the near future from the community (discover tab). Also a glow option to make existing game cursors more visible :) Otherwise new languages and a long list of QoL, performance, and fixes. v1.16.3 A small followup mainly to hotfix "sync with steam" resetting all settings.

• YoloMouse 1.15.2 - 17 October 2025

  This is a hotfix for a crash on startup on older CPUs. Also improved a few other things along the way. UPDATES FIX: crash on older CPUs FIX: empty collection screen BUFF: noodle: more consistent physics, adjust sizing, fix stuck click action.

NEW: Effects: glow, streaks, trails, skew Feedback greatly appreciated! - Steam - Reddit - More And kudos to all the workshop contributors! :)

• YoloMouse 1.15.0 - 3 October 2025

  This one took a whole bit of effort for just one new cursor, a noodle, it jiggles! :D The rendering, physics, and scripting added to support this practically makes YM a small game engine now. This opens up alot more possibilities for future cursors. Dont worry, these features are only used when needed so they wont affect other cursors. This is also the peak of the most complex efforts that were on the TODO list. I wanted to call this a 2.0 but I'd like to make such cursors open to community editing and publishing first. Remaining items are AltGR key support and fixes based on your valuable feedback :) UPDATES NEW: noodle cursor: with jiggle physics! NEW: support ALTGR modifier key FIX: blackscreen on older win10 versions FIX: hidden cursor sometimes not working when using app: windows FIX: unintended hotkeys getting triggered by fake input from apps like PoE Overlay TODO NEW: presets NE…

• YoloMouse 1.14.1 - 2 August 2025

  This is a small maintenance update. Nothing new, just a few fixes that should get out there sooner than later. UPDATES BUFF: Update LUA to latest clean/nonJIT version. This means improved stability for 3D cursors and effects. FIX: Community browser sometimes failing to subscribe to cursors. FIX: Fix original cursor sometimes also showing when first entering a game. FIX: Stuck hotkey issue seen using POE overlay. FIX: Missing "magnification.dll" error on some windows systems. Instead of YM failing, the relying effect "Zoom" will not work instead. TODO NEW: new super awesome scripted cursors NEW: pixel editor in basic and animated image editors NEW: more control over whats reset from settings reset button. NEW: Effects: glow, streaks, trails, skew Feedback greatly appreciated! - Steam - Reddit - More And kudos to all the workshop contributors! :)

• YoloMouse 1.14.0 - 24 July 2025

  Added a nifty new zoom effect to let you magnify whatever you're hovering. Note that it may lag sometimes, just click around to fix. I'm investigating a proper fix. The rest are various fixes from feedback. UPDATES NEW: Zoom/Magnify effect. Includes size, zoom, enhance, and hotkey options. NEW: Add exit/power button to main menu. FIX: Performance issue in GW2 and potentially other games. FIX: Display/input issues when mixing between different DPI monitors. FIX: Mismatched color in color pickers FIX: Effects sometimes persisting after exiting a game TODO NEW: new super awesome scripted cursors NEW: pixel editor in basic and animated image editors NEW: more control over whats reset from settings reset button. NEW: Effects: glow, streaks, trails, skew Feedback greatly appreciated! - Steam - Reddit - More And kudos to all the workshop contributors! :)

• YoloMouse 1.13.0 - 1 June 2025

  The overlay is a key component used when cursors can't be drawn directly through the game. This has has been updated to use the latest Win10 and 11 updates which should improve performance and reduce blackscreens. Overlay VSync and FPS limiters have been added. Raise FPS limit to reduce overlay lag. Lower FPS limit to improve interop with Lossless Scaling. Then some XBRZ upscaler improvements and other fixes. UPDATES NEW: Rework overlay to use direct composition. NEW: Add XBRZ upscale to overlay cursors NEW: Scale down UI if cant fit screen NEW: VSync and FPS limit settings. Applies to the cursor overlay whenever its active. FIX: Fix some XBRZ upscaler issues FIX: Crash when setting static option on a hidden cursor bound to a 3D cursor FIX: Bound hidden cursor not showing in passive mode FIX: Imprecise positioning of hidden static cursor TODO NEW: new super awesome scripted cursors NEW:…

• YoloMouse 1.12.0 - 17 May 2025

  This one adds several workshop features including sorting, filtering, search, and ratings. Added default cursor options like resizing all unbound game cursors. Then the larger update, that will go unnoticed, was support for scripted cursors. So far only the existing Pyro, Prism, Petals were ported over so not much to see. But next update the full capabilities here are planned :) Also snuck in an XBRZ upscaler for existing game cursors :D Otherwise some QoL changes and various fixes. A few I couldn't get to in time however... Theres some issues while using Lossless Scaling thats more complicated than expected. Investigated HDR cursor brightness problem. Unfortunatelly this isnt an easy fix since its a Windows bug with no known workarounds. The only way around this in YoloMouse is to show the cursor via an overlay which can be done by enabling "settings > compliance > passive" but that ha…

• YoloMouse 1.11.0 - 18 March 2025

  Added color and sizing options to effects. The collection tab now recalls your last configured app, instead of showing that intro message every time. Then some fixes that may be significant for some folks. One involved the latest AMD driver update triggering HDR thinking YM is a game. Gamepass games should now work. And finally that stuck keys one which still persisted based on a few reports. It should now behave like it did before version 1.9. Why fix what worked ;) UPDATES NEW: effect settings: added color+sizing for Scope and Halo. NEW: collection: recall last app configured. NEW: show warning when using Compliance Passive mode. BUFF: improve tutorial to avoid confusion. BUFF: support XBox GamePass games by allowing UWP apps to be targeted FIX: crash when deleting cursors with windows app selected. FIX: stuck keys again: revert to when it used to work. FIX: strange HDR-like brightnes…

• YoloMouse 1.10.1 - 3 March 2025

  The Effects feature adds a visual enhancement to your existing cursor. The initial effects are Scope and Halo. These currently lack settings like size and color which will be added next update. Effects are also the first to use LUA scripting, the future of how YM's complex/overlay cursors will be made. This may take a few more updates to mature, but once ready Editor and Workshop support will be added. Additionally anticheat compliance options have been added, primarily to satisfy reports involving "The Finals" and Roblox. The "Stealth" option is meant to avoid a false blacklist by "The Finals". The "Passive" option makes YM fully non-intrusive and only behave as an overlay (except in Windows mode). This allows it to work with Roblox. Both options may apply to other current/future games. And finally fixed the stuck hotkeys issue due to a Windows bug that Microsoft likely will never fix…
