Anno 1602 classic & edited Cursors

HA!
There's no way Riddler's gonna rate this
with 5 undeserved stars! It's so anonymous,
the Canadian No-Name brand products' packaging
has far more personality than this xÞ

Ok, they don't do anything inherently wrong...

hi-vis on dark & bright backgrounds alike,
substantially correct hotspots,
coverage of most common roles
which are also easily discerned...
the technicalities are under check,
& given the b&w format, we have
a tiny storage space, & the lack of a
"coloured cursor may flicker" issue
mentioned in 2001's Zoo Tycoon
(assuming you're using the set on a relic,
for whatever reason)...

but

would someone who didn't play the original

Anno 1602/1602 A.D. even bother taking the time
to replace the default OS pointers with these?

Kinda doubt even a stalwart Anno fan would -
the arrow is barely distinguishable from
Windows' defaults, & the others
don't have much either.

THAT, is the issue.
They're not necessarily bad,
but calling 'em good
is a gigantic over-statement, AND
a disservice to many other, infinitely prettier sets.
EDIT : The downloads counter seems to agree with me ~

(go try Xylindein impulse, Dragon's jewel, Gold spin & Gold orb sets!)

Then...why did I bother with these in the 1st place?

Nono, you make a fair point.
My reasons include :

-Obsession for completeness
•The original b&w cursors are also present
•Possibly also faithfulmess to developers' material
-It was a relaxing, easy piece of work
-The idea of managing a substantially complete set
using just the three pointers in the preview was somewhat enthralling
-Combined with the 1st point, this & the Hist.Ed. sets
were the same, I split them to limit colour tag usage,
& make 'em both tidier too.

TLDR :

I'm a completionist, but also fussy, clumsy,

wanted things to be tidy, & chickened as our Vlasta
mentioned the misuse of tags. ;Þ

§

...I could still get rid of the set... maybe...

if not, I could still remove the pointers,
replace 'em with different ones, change title&desc.,
but alas, the .zip archive would retain the old name

Oh look, a text-wall!
Beat THAT, CrapGPT! XÞ

Lol, someone at Ubisoft wrote this :

"•To go alongside that, there is also a new mouse
cursor to replace the classic Windows-esque look "

5 out of 5 stars.

I like best the double pointing down arrows.

WTH RIDDLER (+\>A<)/

...here however I could make one
using triangles to improvise a danger sign...
maybe the dot to make an exclamation mark.

Also, help & context menu.

This one will get a custom help or two,
& a pair of improved Alto-esque loading cursors.

RIDDLER: 5 stars (undeserved)

I think this is good
