Need some help

Does anybody know if there is a mod or even just a setting to change mouse cursor size in the game? I played on Inifinity and after a while my cursor size changed and was way too big and I was never able to fix it. I switched to another sever and again it was fine but this morning I logged in to the huge cursor again, its driving me mad. I made no changes at all and windows cursor size is at the smallest. I use a 4k tv as a monitor but run 1980x1020 because at 1440p or 4k its the UI is too small to see from my couch.

Any help would be appreciated. I hope this is in the right place.
 
The files for the cursor images are found in /texture and the filenames all start with ui_cursor. They are all 32x32 pixels.
The /ui/ui_styles.inc file defines which files are associated with each cursor, and the size of the cursor shown ingame.
If there have been no changes made to the textures or that .inc file, you shouldn't expect to see any changes to the cursors ingame.

What might be happening is the UI is being scaled by the graphics driver or by the TV itself. AMD have a feature called Virtual Super Resolution and Nvidia call theirs Dynamic Super Resolution. Both of those tell a game to render at a higher resolution, and then they scale it back down to the actual monitor resolution. But if you try those features with SWG, it's like the game treats the UI resolution separately from everything else. It doesn't scale the UI as expected. That's about the closest thing I have ever seen to what you're describing.

So if the files all look good, I'd try turning off VSR or DSR and seeing if that makes a difference. And if those features were never enabled then I would look at the TV's scaling settings.
