Animated Cursors Broken

Voxxy

Hi! I just updated to the last AC Version, and all my animated cursors don't work anymore.

The console reads "Cannot read texture 'xyz' - it may need to be set to type 'Advanced' and have 'Read/Write Enabled' checked.

That setting is still applied though. The problem only persists in software cursor rendering mode.

What am I missing?

Hi Chris,
I have reverted back to AC 1.85.5 for now, and that's fine — I just wanted to flag the problem anyway:

After updating to Adventure Creator 1.86.4, every animated cursor throws on draw and pauses the editor. Static (non-animated) cursors work fine. The problem is not tied to one texture — it affects all animated cursors.

Setup:

• Adventure Creator: 1.86.4
• Unity: 6000.5.3f1 & 6000.4.5f1
• Cursor rendering: Software

Two errors, fired every OnGUI frame:

Warning:
Cannot read texture 'Cursor-sheet' - it may need to be set to type 'Advanced' and have 'Read/Write Enabled' checked.
AC.CursorIconBase:GetAnimatedTexture (bool) (at Assets/AdventureCreator/Scripts/Menu/Menu classes/CursorIcon.cs:577)

Exception:
IndexOutOfRangeException: Index was outside the bounds of the array.
AC.CursorIconBase.Draw (Vector2 centre, Boolean canAnimate) (at Assets/AdventureCreator/Scripts/Menu/Menu classes/CursorIcon.cs:646)
AC.PlayerCursor.DrawIcon (...) (at .../PlayerCursor.cs:1006)
AC.PlayerCursor.DrawMainCursor () (at .../PlayerCursor.cs:681)
AC.PlayerCursor.DrawCursor () (at .../PlayerCursor.cs:585)
AC.StateHandler._OnGUI () (at .../StateHandler.cs:502)

What I have already ruled out:

• Read/Write Enabled is checked on the cursor textures.
• Texture Type set to Default, Compression set to None, textures reimported.
• numFrames / numRows / numColumns in the Cursor Manager match the sheets.
• It happens with every animated cursor

Thanks for your work on AC!

Thanks for the detailed report - I've managed to reproduce this and will investigate.

A fix for this will be included in 1.86.5.

Awesome, Chris! Thank you!
