CursorAnchor

A Guild Wars 2 addon for Nexus that automatically centers your cursor when toggling between target and action camera modes.

Description

CursorAnchor solves a common annoyance in Guild Wars 2: when switching between camera modes, the game remembers your cursor position, which can be problematic if you moved your cursor far away or to a second monitor. This addon ensures your cursor is always centered when toggling camera modes.

Particularly useful for players who:

• Primarily use action camera but occasionally need target camera for specific skills
• Use multiple monitors
• Want to avoid losing track of their cursor position

Installation

1. Install Nexus Addon Loader
2. Download CursorAnchor.dll from the latest release
3. Place the DLL in your Guild Wars 2/addons folder
4. Start the game
5. Keep or change your existing action camera toggle keybind in your game settings
6. In Nexus keybinds, set up the same action camera toggle key that you use in-game
7. Configure a different key for this addon (what you are actually going to use to change camera)
