I thought about this. I kept the changes done above and logged on to the PvP server without getting an auto-ban. I can only assume the RP server is set up the same way. Any changes done to mouse.ini are purely cosmetic and don't interfere with Disco, but if you're concerned I would check with an admin before making any changes.

Thanks for the effort, but its not the Cursor/trargetting reticule i want to change, its the leading reticle (the red cross) that bugs my eyes.

Nothing to say. For now...

Curious, where do you get the color designations from? I like this aspect as much as your HUD and UI ideas.

Oh:(... well, if I find out how to do that I'll be sure to post it.:)

I'm not sure what you mean. You mean the RGB values? I just use Photoshop:



Just to let you know, I've been testing some steel and red schemes... I'll post here as soon as I come up with something tangible.

you sure about it only being cosmetics? - cause - the default attack curser autoaims once the spinning reticule is over the targets supposed "to hit" cross. now if you scale the attack curser up - does that mean that .... the autoaim happens easier? or does it only mean that you don t see when it starts to autoaim anymore..

and do you know how to make the dot bigger (the little dot at the middle that let you to aim at the + ..not the circle..is the dot in the circle)

Good question. I decided to test it out.

Here is a modified cursor at 3.20000 scale aimed at a target at 35m away. The first picture is as close as I could get without causing reticule "spin," i.e. triggering auto-aim. The second is as far away as I could get while causing spin.



This is the same thing with the regular cursor:



It doesn't seem to change targeting in any way.

The dot scales with the cursor size, so I don't believe so. Perhaps by altering cursor.txm-- but doing so would not cause you to hit any better, which I think is for the best:)

Haha... Kinda rough on the eyes, though:D

Possibly, but, due to age, the contrast allows for me to better follow the little critters flittering about the screen. Thanks:)
