UT3 Crosshair Designer - Beondal - Beondal - Sat 23 Feb 13:18

for all those who want to change their crosshair or specify one crosshair for all weapons, but don't know how this really works i found this little tool

http://jeppo.de/unreal/ut3_crosshair_designer/index.html

yes the page is kept in german, so a short explanation here:

in the upper picture you see the different crosshairs ut3 offers to us. on each side of this pic there are 4 small buttons which are used to adjust the green box inside the pic. so just use this to mark the crosshair type you like best. (in the upper left of the page there is a small preview window showing how your crosshair will look like in the game.
to finally "activate" it you need the lines written below this pic. as you move the box the values change, if you found your values just copy and paste them to your UTweapon.ini

For example it could look like this:
[UTGame.UTWeapon]
bUseCustomCoordinates=true
CustomCrosshairCoordinates=(U=408,V=26,UL=16,VL=14)

now to the second window: in ut2k4 we had this in the ingame settings menu, now we need to edit the crosshair color by typing the RGBA values with the notepad -.- i think the color window doesn't need any further instruction. (btw the A value stands for the seethru so you can make the crosshair transparent or not )
below the color window theres again the line you need to add to your UTweapon.ini

to complete our example it could then be like this:
[UTGame.UTWeapon]
bUseCustomCoordinates=true
CustomCrosshairCoordinates=(U=408,V=26,UL=16,VL=14)
CrosshairColor=(R=255,G=255,B=0,A=255)

if you want to do this only for specific weapons you need to scroll down the UTweapon.ini and add the parameters to the weapon you like. if you put it at the beginning it's a default setting for all weapons. (one last thing, as far as i tried it, it only works when i am logged in maybe some1 else knows how to fix that )

i hope this helps everybody to customize crosshairs until they put something like this to the ingame settings.

any questions? just ask me on quakenet. you probably find me on #ut3.ictf
