The application is available for Windows, MacOS and Linux. Don't forget to exit the program after your gaming session, you don't want a reticule while browsing or editing text, do you?ĬrossOver is an open source program, it is an Electron app. Close the program by hitting the X button in the top left corner of the GUI. To reset the settings, hit Control-Alt-Shift-R.

I don't play online games, so I can't say for sure whether this works with specific titles. Warning: Using an overlay in an online multiplayer game could get you banned, so think twice, do some research whether the game allows users to use custom crosshairs, etc. Left click on a reticule to switch to it.īack on the main screen of the application, click on the settings button in the bottom-right to access options to modify the crosshair sight, size, and the opacity. Crossover has dozens of target styles to choose from, these come in various shapes and sizes, from real crosshairs, chevrons, circular dot, cross dot, simple crosshair, dot outlined, x-hair, t-hair, etc. Or you can use Control-Alt-Shift-Arrows to move the crosshair one pixel at a time.Ī single-click on the bulls-eye opens the reticule selector. If you accidentally moved it, and want to center it on the screen, double-click on the bulls-eye button in the bottom left-hand corner. Mouse over the interface, click on it and drag it to any location on the screen. Click and drag the box to reposition it as required. It contains a crosshair, and has 4 buttons, one on each corner. When you start the program, a semi-opaque window is displayed. But if you're ever having trouble with a mission or game where you might struggle with your bow or gun, maybe due to screen shake or sway, having an overlay will help you.ĬrossOver provides you with a crosshair that you can customize to your liking. The same goes for aiming down an ironsight. Not having a HUD to distract you, really lets you observe things around you, like the grass, rocks, trees and plants. Some games support custom crosshairs, or at least include several different types that you may enable.Īs an old-school gamer who plays single-player games, I like the immersion factor. I've seen my friends put a tape on their screen when playing MMOs, so they have a slight edge over their opponents. Sometimes the on-screen reticle is either too tiny, large, or in some cases unusable. Here are some examples of how it looks to use this.If there's one thing which annoys gamers, it's got to be the crosshair in shooting games. Then open the program and click "Change Image Folder" Then select the folder you put the crosshair you want to use in. Create a new file and name it whatever you'd like, and drag the crosshair you want to use into that folder. SETUPTo use any custom crosshair go into the file "crosshairs" in the "Custom_Desktop_Logo_V2.1" folder. To change settings right click and click settings. When the program opens it will be minimized in your task bar, near where the clock is. This is useful for knowing exactly where the center of your screen is rather than just having a largely spaced out + for your crosshair. Using this program you can use the image of any crosshair and display it over the game, allowing you to have any custom crosshair you'd like. There is a program called "Custom Desktop Logo" that allows any image file to be displayed on your monitor above any program. It's a completely standalone program that just overlays an image on your monitor. It does not mess with any game files or mess with the memory of the game. Keep in mind that using this will NOT get you banned. You will need to run your game in "Fullscreen Windowed" mode for this to work. However for those of you who would like to use a custom crosshair you can still do so, just without recursion or playclaw. Which sucked because I wanted to use the crosshair overlay that it provided. I was setting up recursion, and read up how the overlay functions were broken with the DX11 update.
