first of all, i can't figure out how to install a custom cross hair. i downloaded one, and installed it to C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\EMAILADDY\day of defeat\dod\sprites\CustomXhair.spr, but with no luck.

it's still the same red xhair.

also, how can i install the map overview files?

I've never messed with the crosshair, but for the overviews you put the .bmp file and .txt document in:

C:\Program Files\Steam\SteamApps\EMAILADDY\day of defeat\dod\overviews

Great if you've made a custom overview with map/route reminders on it, or for match/tournament routes on it BFE style.

once it's installed u need to go into ur console during the game and type


cl_xhair_style 1

(replace 1 with any number 1-16)
most packs have 16 x-hairs, so test it out
