Animated Dear Diary Dark Mode Cursor for Cursor Unbound

Description

I always fancied this animated cursor which was part of the Dear Diary Dark Mode installer, to me it kinda resembled a jewelled head of an arrow with that fading glow and I think it blends well with Skyrim's fantasy RPG theme. Then upon the release of Cursor Unbound, I already decided to try my hand at using an online tool to convert a SWF file to a GIF, redid each frame in Gimp to replicate an animated fade/glow, saved it into a new GIF, and then I was directed by the author to another online tool to convert it to an ANI file.

Installation instructions

Download the archive and drag-and-drop it into the window of your mod-managing application (Vortex or MO2), let my file(s) override any potential conflict when you receive a notification about it. If you want to manually tweak Cursor Unbound's ini file to use my added cursor(s), simply navigate to the game directory (Skyrim Special Edition) > Data > SKSE > Plugins > CursorUnbound.ini, then you add the following to the "CursorFile =" section:

" CursorUnbound\DarkDiary_Cursor.ani"  or " CursorUnbound\DarkDiary_Cursor_48.ani".

Or if you're feeling lazy, you may just download my own change(s) to the INI.

Main features

Just the cursor ripped from DDDM with animated red glow.

Requirements

Latest version of Cursor Unbound.
