I have been looking for something to allow me more flexablity with my crosshairs. I know a long time ago I saw a mod that allowed you to get some new crosshairs. Anyone know where it is at the mo?

Riz, the crosshairs are simple pcx-pictures in the Quake 2 palette. they are called ch1.pcx, ch2.pcx and ch3.pcx and are in the "pics" folder in your baseq2 or custom game directories. like all Q2 resources, they can be in or outside a pak file. if more than one pak file in a directory contains entries like the crosshairs, these in the pak with the highest number will be loaded. being the graphics wizard you are, you can easily create crosshairs. lots of them. here are the crosshairs from my pak9.pak that I use. have a look at them to see how simple they are done. I'll ask you to do some for me later ...... cuco.dyndns.org/users/grieve/files/crosshairs.zip

All right! Between Jesters link, and Grieves explaination I got it figured out. Already threw together my first three crosshairs. Nothing to be too proud of yet, but they work. Now to start making some really good stuff.

And on another note I have regained FTP access to my site (don't ask) and opened a crosshairs area. My first attempts are now there for your use if you wish them. I will also be loading others I make as i get them done. Now I am outta here to go do some work i promised to do this weekend.
See ya'll soon.
