I always had the problem of losing track of the dark default MousePointer in some of the AoC encounters, namely Seruah and such.
Though I'm not a "clicker" there's just some occasions where you have to use it, e.g. clicking Spellweaving buffs.
Now I stumbled upon the
AoCQS thread and noticed someone mentioning custom MousePointers, and here I go with my own versions
Ingame screenshot with the cursors I modified
(They have been altered for maximum visibility, I'm perfectly aware of the fact they lost most of their eyecandy details)

NOTE: I am still running DX9 myself, so I had no way of checking out the DX10 cursors ingame, if they don't work leave a note please.
AoCQS/ MousePointer plug-in install instructions (by Tiar):
Install And Usage- First install Aoc Quickstart v2.2.0.0 or newer, earlier releases will not work.
- Download the plug-in, unzip and put the plug-in into <INSTALL_FOLDER>\AoCQS\Plugins
- When developing mouse pointers tick on "Show Log File" in the Configurator to see what the plug-in does.
- Put your custom MousePointers in <Age of Conan directory>/Data/Gui/Customized/gfx/MousePointers/
To the UI developers- The *.tga files are used for the DX9 client.
- The *.cur files are used for the DX10 client.
- I don't know what the *.ico files are used for.
Uninstalling the custom MousePointers- Just delete the MousePointers folder under <AoC dir>/Data/Gui/Customized/gfx/
- When you start the patcher afterwards, the game will download the original cursors again.
