マウスカーソルを作ってみたお話
はじめに
以下の話は Windows 10 を前提に行うものとする.
また,制作者は初心者であるため,細かい内容は大目に見ていただきたい.
使用ソフト
RealWorld Cursor Editor
工程
1. 大体の案を思い浮かべる
カーソルのサイズは 32 x 32,または 48 x 48 が使用できる.
これを踏まえてとりあえず描画ソフトで案を思い浮かべるとよい.
今回は私が推している ななひら さんのカーソルを作ってみることにした.
(以下は過去に私がモデルを参考に作ったVroid形式のものである.これをもとにドット絵を作成した.)

2. RealWorld Cursor Editorでドット絵を描く
私はドット絵の描き方など分からなかったのでひたすら手を動かすしかない.
意外と形にはなっていた.私は最初に 48 x 48 から描き始めた.(理由は後述)

さて,次は 32 x 32 …もう一回描く?
3. 32 x 32 のドット絵を作る…?
ここまで作業するとかなり疲れるが仕事は終わらない.
質を求める人はサイズが小さくなったバージョンも描いた方がいいが,初心者には厳しい…
そこで楽をした.
具体的には48 x 48 のドット絵をコピーして貼り付け,もちろんはみ出るので,うまく縮小
たったこれだけ!楽~!
こだわるなら縮小後に修正してもよいだろう.
4. .ani で書き出し
ファイル → 名前を付けて保存から名前を適当につけて保存!
cur (アニメーションなし) で書き出したい場合は書き出し形式を下の方で変更可能だ.
5. 作成したカーソルの設定
Cursors というフォルダに ani ファイル(又は cur ファイル)を入れる.
たぶん,Cドライブ直下から Windows → Cursors だと思う.
設定 → デバイス → マウス → その他のマウス オプション → ポインター → カスタマイズの参照から先ほど入れた ani (cur)ファイルを選択.
最後に適用すればおしまい!
おわりに
ここまで読んでいただいたことに感謝申し上げる.
初心者の私が色々試行錯誤しながら頑張ったマウスカーソル作りの記事であったが,これを見たまだマウスカーソルを作っていない人の助けになればよいと考える.
推しのマウスカーソルがない!
そんなあなたがマウスカーソル作りに挑戦することを楽しみにしている.
