Basically i'm looking for a very small dot crosshair, just a single dot and none of that fancy crap around it. Preferably green, blue, red or white.
Please don't say use the search function because i've went through so many threads on here already looking for this crosshair that my eyes are all bloodshot and i've missed out on a good few hours of playing NS <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'><!--endemo-->
And yes i went through the official release topic thingy aswell searching and through planet half-life etc.

    All four of the colors you asked for are in this pack, and also the default crosshair settings (in case you need to revert back). Just take the color pack of your choice, extract to your <span style='color:green'>\ns\sprites</span> directory, and you're all set to go. There is no need to create backups of any files.

    If you only want the crosshairs for one team, just extract the TXT files that correspond to the weapons that the team uses. However, regardless of your preference, you will always have to extract the .SPR file.

    To revert back, extract the contents of default.zip into the above directory. You will not need to delete anything.

    Given that screen resolutions are factors of 2, it's impossible to get a single pixel in the absolute center of the screen. This is more of a problem at lower resolutions, of course.

    Just mentioning that in case it hadn't been remembered.

    ...which is exactly why all my crosshairs are constructed using brushes that are divisible by 2 pixels.
    A single pixel might not be able to be centered, but a 2x2 square <b>can</b> be centered. The end result? All my crosshairs are still perfectly centered. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif'><!--endemo-->

    By the way, has anybody experienced any problems with the crosshairs? No melted motherboards, fried retinas, or mushroom clouds, right?
