I have just started playing again but would like to chaneg the crossheirs colour as its not that clear.

Are there any other choices that you can do with command changes other than the box standard colours?

What do you find is the best colour?

In BF I find that pink is a good colour, is there an option for that?

bind Mouse4 "incrementvar cl_crosshaircolor 0 1 2 3 4"

Put that in your autoexec.cfg file and replace mouse4 with any button you want. That button will now cycle through all the colours :)

Hope that helps.

Thats an interesting idea. I usually use green but i have trouble with it on some maps. I thought there would have been more than just those colours.

Where do I find this file, searched like mad for it but no luck. Any help?

And does this count as some kind of cheating? Like if they run a scan of the system?

Can you not just put it in your console?
 
It wont be classed as cheating, its just a "script" line that will allow you to cycle through the colours :)


Usually found in the steam folders.
s\Valve\Steam\SteamApps\psypherv1\counter-strike source\cstrike\cfg
 
I play DoD but its the same thing. I can cycle through colours and different styles/sizes of crosshair.

Usually I use a yellow dot but can switch to red or green in game if needs be.

Just google it you'll find loads of options.

Thanks. Tried google but there are so many to look through. What are your favourites that enhance your game without cheating?

Are there any for making the crossheirs more definable. Shape or colour other than the normal ones.

Any scripts that make you change to pistol instead of reloading main gun? That would be handy.

The options I stated aren't cheating and if you check out Steam forums and search for crosshair colours there are some downloadable custom colours OR thick option of standard colours. Small crosshair = more accuracy (less margin for error estimating centre of sight) but they need thickening up to see against some backgrounds.

Oh and Turbo GunGame 4tw!!! as well as my crosshair settings :D

I think, from memory alone, that this is incorrect (Can't check now, at work...)

It's correct up until the numbers....

it goes bind Mouse4 "incrementvar cl_crosshaircolor 0 4 1"

that means colours 0-4 changing up 1 colour at a time....
