Crosshair Collection

[Riz [Q2C]]

Yes thats right, thanks to Grieve, and Jester I have figured out how to make crosshairs, so make them I shall.

There is a crosshair area on my site, and I am slowly filling it with the oddest and weirdest crosshairs i can concieve of. I will post a screenie of them in this thread, and if you see something you just have to have, you can get it from my site.

This first set is something I threw together to learn how to make all this work. Nothing fancy, but at least semi workable.


After I figured out how to actually make crosshairs, I decided to make something a little more workable. So I tweaked with a crosshair from my mind, and this is what I came up with.


Then I decided to make something that a friend of mine (Golden Gecko) would like. Since he is an Alien fan, I went to work on a crop circle idea, and viola, here we go.

I will add more crosshairs to this thread as i make more. Hope ya'll enjoy.

Being abducted several times myself, I know that greys and reptilians use crosshairs like these with their sniper phasors ....

Nice work, Riz. Gotta give it a try.

[Riz [Q2C]]

LOL, glad to see I was accurate at least Grieve. Now if I could just get some of those alien weapons for myself I would never worry for money again (EG).

Well here is another set for you fiends out there. If you ever played AD&D or read any of the novels from this game, you might recognise the source for this crosshair. Even if you don't get the referance, who cares, you still may like the set.

I decided to make a set based off some Drowish house glyphs I found a long time ago. The effort turned out so nice, I will be doing more Drowish glyphs in the future.

And yes more crosshairs (and skins too) will be coming later.

[Riz [Q2C]]

More Drowish stuff. What can I say, I like Drowish. Even my name came from a Drow character I used to play a long time ago.

Let me know what you think, or what you would like to see me attempt.

Well it appears that my site host has a problem around the end of every month, soooo.......

The files are available for download and I will put links to them, but I cannot update the site itself again till the first it seems.

Anyways here goes.

This set comes from another FPS, but I really don't know which one. I just saw the pics on a search engine and said what the heck.

Then I made a simple man shaped silhouette. Could be useful for people who have a hard time figuring out how to aim center of mass (LOL).

Another man shaped silhouette, but this one with a more visible reticle on it.

Now for my personal favorite. Another Drowish glyph, but this one I actually signed in Drowish script too.

I am kicking ideas around now for a Q2C crosshair, maybe something with a pic of the backshooters in the reticle or something. LOL

Links to follow soon.

[Riz [Q2C]]

Hmmmm, I actually cannot see anything in your post 3fing3r3dfi3nd, other than you found something at Backshooters. Sorry man.

[Riz [Q2C]]

OK here is the promised Q2Cafe crosshair.

You can download this set from cuco.dyndns.org/users/riz/cross/crosshairs0028-0030.zip so go for it.

[3fing3r3dfi3nd]

Well the powers that be (phffft, if you are trying to avoid flaming then maybe you should delete the post by Riz also) seem to have deleted my post so I thought I would show you the crosshair in action. Imo I think that it would work for some here!

[Riz [Q2C]]

Hmmm, ok I did see that in your post then, I just didn't realize it was a crosshair. Interesting one it is.

As for the deletion, I am not sure why your post was deleted, unless the mod/admin who did the delete thought it was an empty post like I thought it was.

[clan leader [MCS]§hydmÄn]

how the heck do I get you're X-hairs to work?! I downloaded all of them but I still can only use my normal ones! where am I suposed to put these so that thay work?!

[Riz [Q2C]]

Unzip the file for the set you currently wish to use (only one set can be in use at a time), into your baseq2 folder.

[whirlingdervish]

yeah.. if they aren't in with all your pak*.pak files then Q2 can't find them.
if you set the * as the highest number .pak file you have I think it should have precedence over the standard ones. or you could clip the regular ones out with pak explorer. hint hint..

[whirlingdervish]

ah I actually downloaded one and unzipped it... they are set up perfectly riz. You don't even have to worry about your pak # cause they're in the highest one already. good thinkin.

[Riz [Q2C]]

I do try.
