Great Crosshair Creator Needed ASAP!
« on: October 06, 2012, 04:11:07 PM »
 
        Ive been thinking ever since i desired to make a
realistic pack for d paintball. What I need is a cross hair
that looks like goggles in realistic paintball games like
where you can see them in Greg Hastings Paintball.
It will be giant. I know this is possible. I asked
Superman and he said it would be a great addition to the realism pack!
If anyone is a skilled cross hair maker, please help me out.
If you can do it upload it somewhere and then give me the link. Thanks ahead of time!  :D

Oh! It will also need a cross hair in the middle so it looks like goggles around the screen and still have the default cross hair in the middle.

ok.
Download this:

Now

make your crosshair, you said goggles around your screen. That would depend on how big your screen is. When you find out. go to gimp and open it up.

go to i suggest practice first.

File->new

Width: 64
Height: 64

and click ok.

(Im just teaching you how to make a cross.)

Zoom in so its a good size. Press shift +.

Select the paintbrush in the toolbox.

Left click in the top left corner. Then press shift and drag to the bottom right corner and left click. Do that with the top right corner and bottom left corner.

Now go to: Layer->Transparency->Color to Alpha...

In the preview box make sure that the part you want to be able to see through is the gray squares. If not click the white box thats after
From:

click ok.

Now go to Save As...

In the box next to Name: write ch20.tga

now go to c:/games/paintball/pball/pics
and click save.
Another box will come up. Just click save.

Now open up paintball2
open console with the ~ key. Then type into it a map you want just anymap(e.g shock) you would do: map shock
shock will load. Open up the console again and type: crosshair 20

Congrats you made your first crosshair!

Hope this was helpful. Ill have a go at the goggles later.

Thanks deadfroggy! I have gimp but I didn't know how to do almost anything. If you give the goggles a try we might be able to compare and ill use the better one out of the 2. Ill post the picture when its finished.  ;D

When you said how big my screen is, do you mean my monitor or the game window?

Ok i went with the practice. This is what happened: http://i1310.photobucket.com/albums/s658/qwaseman2/sshot0000_zps89da8697.jpg

Its way off. How do I center it??
Where the paint splatter is where it will always shoot.

This may sound noobish: I just cant do it. Maybe if you do the goggles you can give me the link so i can put it in the Realism Pack.

Like this?

I couldnt do yellow because it stuffed up.

These are just a rough one.

next one will probably be better.

enjoy.

plus if you want these to work get a computer screen of 1440 x 900.

I don't see any benefit in obscuring your vision.

Maybe he doesn't care about winning as much as you guys.  You know some people still play video games to have fun.

http://speedy.sh/K5dew/ch55.TGA  < put in pics folder
 
i made this one a while back, i basically copied it from warsow(i thought it was sick).
I re-centerd it because all the other default crosshairs seemed to be a little bit off center,
i moved this one a little down and it seemed to make me aim better. Also use cl_crosshairscale 1 if you are going to try this out.
There's these weird pixels i missed if you use higher than 1

Yes thank you superman. I took your thinking of using it as a cross hair instead of risking to modify hud :D
