Come on think u can imagine how a red/blue/green dot in the middle of your screen would look like :D

Well..I used the green one (favorite color) and it works pretty ~~~~ well. It does its job, and it doesnt really blend in with anything because its bright. I like it.

I've tried using the green ones and actually noticed that my shots go down and to the right of the green dot. While attempting a headshot on a zombie standing still while I was also stationary, I missed completely at a long distance and hit his right shoulder up close. Then by aiming the crosshair up and to the left of his head about half an inch diagonally on screen, I headshotted him. I don't know if its the sprite thats out of place or there is some alignment value that needs to be changed. I also tested the various guns against a wall and they all shoot down and to the right of the crosshair about half an inch to an inch. Does anyone know how to move the crosshair so that it reflects where a gun will actually hit?

Thanks

Tested the magnum aswell? This should be the only gun wich aims exactly at the crosshair. The Dot i used is just some pixels in size so it must be the center....

Yes, the zombie headshot test was with the mag, forgot to mention that, sorry. Yeah, all the guns are off the dot. I noticed there were some notepad files in the folder that looked like they could be configurations for alignments but I don't know what does what so I haven't tried anything with that. I love your green dot crosshair, I just wish I could figure out how to center it properly. :(

Edit:

And yes, I realize that the pistol, shotgun, and colt will rarely hit exact center simply because they are innacurate and have a spray range but even when I emptied a full colt mag into the wall the circle made by the spray of bullets was totally seperate from the dot which confirmed that it likely just needs to have its alignment adjusted, only I don't know how to do that.
