Crosshair

[Ancient-Admin]

most people play Dust 2. No matter where you are if there is a vote....most of the time it's Dust 2. My problem is I cant see my crosshairs because of the brightness in most of that map. I lower the brightness but that doesnt seem to help. Neither does changing the color of the crosshairs. Now add to that how bad I suck...I have a big problmem....any suggestions?

cl_crosshairscale 200


You could try going into the Advanced Video settigs, and disabling HDR Rendering. HDR causes the brights to be brighter when emerging from a shaded area. Suposed to look how it would in real life, with pupils gettin small/big and such.


Default cl_crosshairscale is like 1000 or 1200 i believe, if you don't like 200

how do u even SEE cl_crosshairscale 200, much less expect Ancient to see it. mine is like 800 i think

wait...wrong direction lol. i was thinking the smaller the number the smaller the size. yeah 200 should do the trick rofl

I just tried it....I trhink it will help a lot....lol...I need lots of help anyway...thank you...

Uh, there's a much easier way to do this without using a gigantic reticle that screws up your long range aiming.

You can use green or red as long as you turn the brightness on the reticle way up. Enter these commands into console, they're good for any map for that matter.

The two most useful crosshair commands you will ever find (besides cl_crosshairscale xxxx). Thanks bird, you gave them to me a couple months ago.

I was having the same problem with dust and dust2 being way too bright and the colors looking washed out. I disabled High Dynamic Range lighting and that fixed it for me. In CS Source it's under Settings -> Video -> Advanced Settings. You might want to give that a try if the maps look way too bright.

the crosshairusalpha helped a lot ...so did closing HDR....thanks guys.

Slayer chill dude and don't insult the gentleman please

FYI i've dealt with the forum spamming.

Kamikazie read your infraction carefully. Bringing up 5 month old threads and posting one liners is not the way to impress.

I would advise you read the "sticky" threads at the top of the forums FIRST in future.

Well...if it helps I play with a green crosshair set to 99999 scale. I love it

[Gunslinga]

I use blue at 5000. The four little dots show up pretty well on d2.

On dust maybe but I used blue before (I mainly play assault) and I remember having trouble seeing my crosshair while aiming towards mid-shadows or at the greenish sides, maybe that doesn't apply to dust
