CustomMouse
by Bloopdawhoop
CustomMouse replaces the in-game cursor with a mouse texture the player imports, and lets the player change its size, rotation and trail colour.
What it does
Players load their own images as cursor textures, so the on-screen pointer can take any picture they supply. Size and rotation are adjustable, and a trail can be coloured either by a fixed value or by the colour of the image itself. The feature set is aimed at personalising the look of the pointer during play.
The mod runs on the client alone, so only the player who installs it sees the custom cursor and no server needs it. It is published for NeoForge only, with files for 14 release versions. The code is not open source; it is released under All rights reserved.
The newest NeoForge build is 2.49, targeting 26.1.2 and dated 2026-05-05, which is also the first and last update date listed for the project.

Use cases
Personal cursor styles
A player who wants a themed or decorative pointer for their own game can swap the default cursor for an image of their choice.
Streaming and recording
A distinctive pointer with a coloured trail makes the cursor easier to follow on screen during a recorded session.
Who it’s for: Players who want a personalised cursor on the client. Because the mod is client-side only, server owners do not need to install it.
How it compares
Custom Screens is a client and server mod for Fabric and NeoForge across the same version span, under All rights reserved. ElytraCam is a NeoForge-only client-side mod for 1.21 – 1.21.4 under the MIT License, so it covers fewer versions. schrumbos Inventory HUD is client-side on Fabric and NeoForge across 1.21 – 26.3 and is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 or later, which CustomMouse is not.
