Alien Melee Crosshairs

RabbiSatan

<div class="IPBDescription">bitegun, bite2gun, swipe, claws</div> Is it possible to impliment crosshairs for the four alien melee attacks mentioned in the thread description? I'm aware of what the strings in the weapon_bitegun.txt file means.

I've tried copy-pasting the bold in weapon_spit.txt

10
weapon 320 320w 0 160 80 20
weapon_s 320 320w-s 0 160 80 20
ammo 320 640hud7 96 96 24 24
<b>crosshair 320 xhairspit 0 0 64 64</b>
weapon 640 640aw1 0 90 170 45
weapon_s 640 640aw1-s 0 90 170 45
ammo 640 640hud7 96 96 24 24
<b>crosshair 640 xhairspit 0 0 64 64</b>

To weapon_bitegun.txt

6
weapon 320 320w 0 60 80 20
weapon_s 320 320w-s 0 60 80 20
ammo 320 640hud7 96 96 24 24
<b>crosshair 320 xhairspit 0 0 64 64</b>
weapon 640 640aw1 0 45 170 45
weapon_s 640 640aw1-s 0 45 170 45
ammo 640 640hud7 96 96 24 24
<b>crosshair 640 xhairspit 0 0 64 64</b>

And it doesn't seem to work - is it possible to put crosshairs on alien melee weapons in the first place? I've tried copy-pasting the bold to devour and other non-melee alien attacks and they worked fine. Is there anything I'm missing?

Change the 6 at the top of weapon_bitegun.txt to an 8.

That number must be equal to the number of lines below it (or greater than). It tells HL how many lines it has to read in the file.

File is as follows - for future reference and anyone who uses search (Using the same crosshair as gorge spit)
