Halo Crosshairs

<div class="IPBDescription">Looks nice ingame</div> I don't really know if these (or similar) crosshairs have been done before, but anyway... I've been using these for awhile, and they work terrific ingame, and look nice, so I decided to share, enjoy...

    They all look pretty good and accurate, though the practicallity of the design doesn't match up with the almost no spread of the LMG <!--emo&::marine::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/marine.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='marine.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Well, doesnt really matter, wherever you aim with that thing, you'll hit anyway.

    In-game pic would be appreciated.

    Can't fire up Steam right now, compiling a film...

    But anyway, they look almost identical to the Halo Xhairs (aside from additive compared to reverse-interpolation rendering used in Halo)

    Not bad at all, but could you make them a little 'brighter'? I find them difficult to see in the midst of a firefight.

    I could make them brighter, I'll experiment alittle and we'll see if I can squeeze out something even "better"...

    edit: I've made some editing (mainly replacing the HMG sprite with the Warthog MG xhair), brightening them alittle and so forth, I'll try to get some ingame screens, then I'll post it here.

    Should have used the Scorpions X-hair for the GL.

    v2

    (mind you these are shot in 800x600, so they're a tad smudged out, they're much sharper in 1024x768)

    Didn't get a chance to screenie the HMG one, so I left that out.

    Much better, but I have a 2 suggestions:

    1) In general they are great but a bit small. I think the HMG and pistol crosshairs should be about 50% larger, and the Shotgun and crosshairs should be tiwce as large. (Mind you I'm running NS at 1400x1050 resolution, that might be the cause)

    2) Put this on the official release topic!

    Use SpriteView to extract .bmps from the .spr files, then just edit them, I believe SpriteView and SprWiz (needed to compile .spr from .bmp) can be found at <a href='http://articles.thewavelength.net/' target='_blank'>The Wavelenght</a>
