Skulk Bite Crosshair

<div class="IPBDescription">Question...</div> I've been enjoying NS for quite a while now and I prefer to play skulk when on the Alien side. The only problem with this is that prolonged periods of gaming with those teeth clacking back and forth can give me quite a headache. Now I know changing, moving, removing, etc the skulk bite model is considered cheating, (and for good reason). So I was wondering what the feasibility of using a crosshair for the skulk bite would be? It wouldn't increase visibility at all, just give the viewer something to focus on so they won't need a costco size bottle of advil next to their comp. Thoughts? Would this be considered cheating?

    I don't know why you would need one just aim for the whatevers in the center is basically what I go for, as long as you can get two bites on them they're done for, and I'm not sure why they made it so you're looking through the mouth when the eyes on the model our on top

    I'd like to have a crosshair for bite too. I thought one might be able to mess around a bit and get one to appear by editing weapon_bitegun.txt but eh, I'm not that l33t.

    Heheh I can't be the only one whos eyes the skulk teeth wreck havoc on. And it's not so much that I don't know how to do it, I can certainly edit the files myself, I just wanted to make sure it was valid and not considered an unfair advantage. Though I'm not sure why it would be, I figured I'd better double check.

    i wouldnt consider it cheating but im sure many ppl would, in the end its up to u.

    i have a bind to r_Drawviewmodel which switches the teeth/gun on and off but also switches some of the hud off (ie. hivesight, motion tracking)

    i would LOVE to use a skin like this

    Yeah, I wouldn't think this is anywhere near as questionable as the drawviewmodel which, if it hasn't already, will be locked I'm sure.

    I still haven't gotten what I'd consider a final ruling on this. Is there a better place to post the question?

    I think its very very slightly suspect, but on a scale of one to 10, its about a 0.2, so nobody will really care. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif'><!--endemo-->
