Battle Cursor Disappear

I am planning a new game. I am currently experimenting with features in the battle system.

I want to make battles between one hero and one monster that have the appearance of being in first-person. The hero will not have a sprite on screen. If you imagine the Dragon Quest 1 battles, you will know what I am imagining.

So far I have figured out work-arounds to make this possible, except for one thing. Is there anyway to remove the cursor arrow that hang's over the hero's head when it is his turn?

Nevermind. I figured it out. The OHR has become so loaded with features since I first started using it. I love it!

I don't think there is. Maybe it'd be easier to just do a custom battle thing? I'm guessing it'd be fairly easy to do with just menus, text boxes, and backdrops. I could be wrong though, and it might be far more complicated than that, but it looks like it could be done with a relatively small amount of scripting.

Same here! I enjoy playing with the new stuff!

I've never heard a custom battle system described as "a relatively small amount of scripting" before!

It really depends on how much you like programming

It feels like relatively little when I get lost in it. And it's more interesting to me than, say, action game style physics stuff.

Well, still a lot, but compared to say, something like the Breath of Fire combat system, a tactics engine, roguelike combat (and pathfinding), or (heaven forbid) something like Tales of Phantasia, it would take comparatively less scripting. Still a lot though.
