:) Hi all, i just bought an ati x850xt:D and i wanted to test my favorite game in its best video resolution... I switched the graphic engine to OpenGl and setted it up to have the best performance... The game look so fantastic but!... crosshairs looks very bad...:mad: it seems is like rendering them at 800x600 or less! High resolution = Big Pixelized Crosshairs :eek: I tried 1024 x 768 and the crosshairs looks delicious... Do anybody know if there is a way to have 1280 x 1024 resolution and have awesome crosshairs? Try it by yourself! I would also like to know if it is only my problem or there is something wrong in the game... Hope you could help me... I just searched for a patch but nothing about crosshairs:( ... I'm running Unreal 99 v436... sorry if my english sucks :lol:

Ciao

Right behind you.

If you think your crosshairs look bad you should see mine. I run at 1920x1080. And yes, the default crosshairs look horrible.

Unfortunately there seems to be no fix for this. UT will automatically scale your crosshair size up according to your screen resolution and I know of no way to change it. My suggestion to you is to use higher-quality custom crosshairs as a workaround. You can get some here:

http://www.accesswave.ca/~seburges/

Click on 'Screenshots' to see what the different packs look like, and 'Files' to download them. Also note that most of these are animated. My favorite has always been this animated crosshair (#02) from the [EG]! set:

Have fun.

i do have an idea to solve this problem but don't know how to implement it. what the ut movie makers do is set the crosshair to hidden and then overlay an image of the crosshair on top in sony vegas. does anyone know of any software to overlay the crosshair on top of the ut program while i'm playing? it must be possible because fraps overlays the fps counter on top of ut.

btw thanks for the link but what i'd really like is just a 1 pixel dot.

darkmedor, have you been able to successfully install the utrp crosshairs? i'm using d3d9, i made the changes in the user.ini, and changed uses3tc to true in the d3d9 section in the unrealtournament.ini, but none of the crosshairs show up.

i also tried it on another install of ut that uses opengl and has the s3tc textures installed, but it still didn't work.

what am i doing wrong? thanks for the help.

just to clear things up, from what i understand now those utrp high res crosshairs require a server side mod to work.

I was just told a fix for the blurry crosshair problem. On servers with ACE type "mutate ace crosshairscale 1.0" in the console.

That's great :) . It sounds like Anthrax added a fix to modify the crosshair code.

No ned checker UTpure.

No ne anthchecker v.138 build 10.

Ace check. But you can add a AntiTweak http://unrealtournament.99.free.fr/utfiles/index.php?dir=Anticheat/AntiTweak/&file=AntiTweakV52.zip and a no 16 bit http://unrealtournament.99.free.fr/utfiles/index.php?dir=Anticheat/&file=ESG_No16bits.rar

If you whant a zéroping take tne 103 http://unrealtournament.99.free.fr/utfiles/index.php?dir=Zeroping/&file=ZeroPingPlus103.zip

Have you set ACE in the UT.ini server ?
[ACEv08h_S.ACEActor] or [ACEv08g_S.ACEActor]

For pure and custom Crosshairs set
TrackFOV=0

I still have some troubles with no16bit mode. It doesn't download any files from my client when i first conect to the server also i've tryied changing to 16bit and it works. I've copied the 2 files ESG_No16bits.int and ESG_No16bits.u to /UT Server/System and added in unrealtournament.ini ServerPackages=ESG_No16bits to [Engine.GameEngine] did i do something wrong ?
