Download Sniper Scope

[Arch]

Quick little mod I whipped up in a few minutes. Pretty much just places a semi-transparent black fill around the sniper crosshair. The picture below explains it better than I can in words.

The black does fill the rest of the screen. I just cropped out the middle section. The "scope" (?) itself is just a 5000x5000 px image, so it will not re-size to your screen. You can go in and change the image all you want, just take note that if you change the dimensions you will also want to change the dimensions in the script, meaning going in and changing the extent of this element to match the dimensions of the new image.

new GuiBitmapCtrl(SniperScope)
        {
            bitmap = "mods/autoexec/SniperScope/sniperScope";
            profile = "GuiTransparentProfile";
            horizSizing = "center";
            vertSizing = "center";
            extent = "5000 5000";
        };

V2 Update

• Hides the default crosshair when zooming in.
• Changed the image to look more like a sniper scope.
• Little text notification to show what zoom level you are on.

I like! Crashed the client the first time I tried using it, but appears to work fine now. Might mess with adding some faint lines as well.

That would be awesome. I was thinking of that while making this but I had no idea how to do so.

The only problem is that it requires getting the position of them when the IFF pops up on them. Unfortunately, that doesn't update if you keep it trained on the same person which is odd because health does update. I should really look into that so I could get it to look better.

 

[Fixious]

Odd. I've just noticed that this doesn't show up on demos.

 

[Arch]

Yeah, the demos don't capture the zoom feature.

 

[Fixious]

Oh. Well never mind then.

Thanks for making this Arch, since finding this back in April I haven't changed back! I adjusted the opacity and size for 1680*1050 and now its perfect for me.

You shouldn't need to change anything for the resolution. The image is 5000 x 5000 px, and it should automatically be centered in the screen and ready to go.

facedesk... you thought someone's resolution was 5000x5000?

 

[Ares]

Previously I used 800x600, however, owing to the size of the crosshair at that resolution I changed to native.

Was any progress made with the range-finder addon btw? That would be another useful touch.

Look at his FPS in that picture!! :S

His machine is actually rendering less of the map because he is zoomed in though! Nevertheless, still good.

Do you have all the files in the zip in your live/mods/autoexec folder? Including the folder.

 

[Jello]

Yes, and it starting to annoy me
