i like this

@*no name*: no its not, this was made from scratch
@potato: cl_showcrosshair i think or something like that

This is from Jedi Knight: Jedi Academy lmfao

how do you change your cross hair to the default one?

@savedby - its been many a year since i last played gmod. I keep my gmod addons up for posterity, but have no desire to continue development

Can you add a setting for the crosshair?

@savedby - it was the avatar of the person who requested this.
@sajgk - check your addons folder for remnant code

why stargate background i love stargate!

when i uninstalled it, both my official and custom crosshair were completely removed from my vision

no worries buddy :)

Damn. Well, thanks anyway.

I think you (like countless others who have asked me the same) are confusing clientside lua, with addons that do not use lua but replace default assets.

You cannot use ANY - and yes I mean any - lua on multiplayer servers you dont own, unless you use a lua injector (hacks) (or of course, the owner is an imbecile and has left sv_allowcslua on). for many reasons - this included, as this would give you an advantage over players. you could recode it, for example, to show up red when you saw a traitor in TTT. you could even just add in aimbot code, or exploits.

As it happens, this does work with a lua injector on the current version of gmod, as tested on my private servers, but I have no intention of teaching you or anyone else how to do that - it would only lead to an increase in cheating in a game where no big company loses out - its the server owners who have to pay for anticheat, and faster servers to handle the additional load.

If you are truly determined, do what we used to do back in the dawn of FPS gaming and draw a dot in the middle of your screen using pen, or stick on a blob of bluetack.

Let me re-phrase: Does it work in MULTIPLAYER?

100% clientside

Does it work clientside?

@SHAD - These were programmed in LUA. If you wish to get into game development and want tutoring I am available to teach Garrysmod and Unreal4.

Hey how did you make these?

add me on steam pixel ill explain

Hey, do you think i ould get the Lua code too? I'd need some explanation as to how to install/activate it :)

@griffen thanks lol both are sneakys

Done! Dodn't recognise the name, I added you from your profile lol. :P

@ nikefier accept me on steam mate ill explain :)

How would I install it? I got some basic knowledge but I'm mostly a novice.

Entirely client side? I won't need to worry about MP things blocking it? That'd be great! The stock crosshair is almost invisible...

hey nikefier, if you like I can give you the lua file itself so you can run it separately?

Why don't you make this usable in mp servers with sv_allowcslua set to 1
That way it can be used client-side with a run code :D

this is actually brilliant

Thanks alot Sneaky, great job, it makes it so much easier!

Thanks mate ill take a look at it for you :)

could you please paste the lua errors you get? im glad youve been using it for a while and im sure I can fix it

I just got lua script errors, and have been using this for awhile. The cursor has disappeared for me, so I have it disabled for now.
Other than that, I still like using this cursor!

i record my gameplay and i see/feel no difference in the fps

I did all that, I am absolutely sure this mod is the fault.

First I tested without any addons, FPS diference between camera and tools was 0-5fps, then I re-added them one by one and when I found out that this mod affected fps by 50 between any tool and camera, then I removed it, added all other addons and tried it again just to be sure and the fps diference was again insignificant.

I belive the process that scans what you're aiming for is costly, see what SmartSnap uses because that seems to not affect FPS so much and that also renders the 3D grid as well

could you try renaming your garrysmod folder to make it recreate the local content and disable all mods and try it again?

@digi-safe i have used this extensively and never seen any slowdown regardless of weapons equipped, and noone out of the 2,500+ subscribers have mentioned this still now

This slows render considerably, test it out by swapping between phys gun or tool gun and camera, you'll see a 50-fps diference and for my 100fps it's considerable.

thank Hippa, appreciate the feedback :)

i have used this for a while now and there has been no problems, good work [HDG]2Sneaky

Alright, I`m getting this then!

it should have practically no effect on your performance mate

Does it lag the game?

btw if anyone does want a crosshair for next to free that they can use in all online games - blu-tack in the middle of the monitor for TFTs, wipeboard marker for CRTs

ya

hehe glad you liked it :P yeah it is a bit of a shame - the reason i first started hosting my own servers was so i could use my mods online

That is actually really funny! It's too bad that you can't make your mod work on servers without the server having it installed.

unfortunately it doesnt work like that - but these people offer the solution youre after :p http://supplycrate.com/ stick on crosshairs for your monitor

What I'm trying to say is if you could make it work for just the people who have it installed, without having to install it on the server.

@poisonstings - it does work in multiplayer, and has been tested as such - but it does have to be loaded onto the server you wish to see it on.
