Hey, I made a custom cursor system that is all working, yet the issue I come across is trying to hide the Roblox system cursor. For some reason, it isn’t being hidden.

Help will be greatly appreciated.

local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local module = {}

local cursorGui
local cursorImage
local moveConnection
local clickConnection
local isEnabled = false
local lastTween

local CURSOR_ASSET = "rbxassetid://9618276643"
local CURSOR_SIZE = 64
local CURSOR_OFFSET_Y = 57
local CLICK_SCALE = 0.9
local CLICK_TWEEN_TIME = 0.08

local function ensureCursorGui()
	if cursorGui then return end

	local player = Players.LocalPlayer
	local playerGui = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui")

	cursorGui = Instance.new("ScreenGui")
	cursorGui.Name = "CustomCursorGui"
	cursorGui.ResetOnSpawn = false
	cursorGui.IgnoreGuiInset = true
	cursorGui.ZIndexBehavior = Enum.ZIndexBehavior.Sibling
	cursorGui.DisplayOrder = 9999
	cursorGui.Parent = playerGui

	cursorImage = Instance.new("ImageLabel")
	cursorImage.Name = "CursorImage"
	cursorImage.Size = UDim2.fromOffset(CURSOR_SIZE, CURSOR_SIZE)
	cursorImage.AnchorPoint = Vector2.new(0.5, 0.5)
	cursorImage.BackgroundTransparency = 1
	cursorImage.Image = CURSOR_ASSET
	cursorImage.ImageColor3 = Color3.new(1, 1, 1)
	cursorImage.ZIndex = 9999
	cursorImage.Visible = false
	cursorImage.Active = false
	cursorImage.Selectable = false
	cursorImage.Parent = cursorGui
end

local function clickAnimation()
	if not cursorImage then return end

	local shrinkTween = TweenService:Create(cursorImage, TweenInfo.new(CLICK_TWEEN_TIME, Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, Enum.EasingDirection.Out), {
		Size = UDim2.fromOffset(CURSOR_SIZE * CLICK_SCALE, CURSOR_SIZE * CLICK_SCALE),
	})
	local restoreTween = TweenService:Create(cursorImage, TweenInfo.new(CLICK_TWEEN_TIME, Enum.EasingStyle.Quad, Enum.EasingDirection.In), {
		Size = UDim2.fromOffset(CURSOR_SIZE, CURSOR_SIZE),
	})

	shrinkTween:Play()
	shrinkTween.Completed:Connect(function()
		restoreTween:Play()
	end)
end

function module.Enable()
	if isEnabled then return end
	isEnabled = true

	ensureCursorGui()
	cursorImage.Visible = true
	
	UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled = false

	-- Follow mouse
	moveConnection = UserInputService.InputChanged:Connect(function(input)
		if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseMovement then
			local targetPos = UDim2.fromOffset(input.Position.X, input.Position.Y + CURSOR_OFFSET_Y)
			if lastTween then lastTween:Cancel() end
			lastTween = TweenService:Create(cursorImage, TweenInfo.new(0.05), { Position = targetPos })
			lastTween:Play()
		end
	end)

	-- Play click animation on left click
	clickConnection = UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gameProcessed)
		if gameProcessed then return end -- respect UI interactions
		if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
			clickAnimation()
		end
	end)
end

function module.Disable()
	if not isEnabled then return end
	isEnabled = false

	UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled = true

	if moveConnection then
		moveConnection:Disconnect()
		moveConnection = nil
	end
	if clickConnection then
		clickConnection:Disconnect()
		clickConnection = nil
	end
	if lastTween then
		lastTween:Cancel()
		lastTween = nil
	end

	if cursorImage then
		cursorImage.Visible = false
	end
end

function module.SetColor(color: Color3)
	if cursorImage then
		TweenService:Create(cursorImage, TweenInfo.new(0.15), { ImageColor3 = color }):Play()
	end
end

function module.Destroy()
	module.Disable()
	if cursorGui then
		cursorGui:Destroy()
		cursorGui = nil
	end
end

return module```

I have tested the script myself and it works fine, are you sure you aren’t just confusing it with the custom cursor? Try setting the cursor asset id to something else.

I mean the custom cursor works fine, the main issue was just Roblox system cursor isn’t going away. I do have a gun system so maybe something else is overriding the cursor.

Issue was found, gun system was the cause of the issue, the custom system is completely working.
