I have a crosshair I made for firearms that I want to use for all my weapons for DoD. How do I go about making the correct sprite for this? I've attached the sprite, so if anyone can help me out, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Wow, that's.. original. Is it static? If so you can just add it to one of the 'slots' in customxhair.spr on your dod\sprites folder. It's basically a 256x256 sprite divided into 16 squares, one for each crosshair. Feel free to download and edit my custom crosshair pack if you're not sure what I'm talking about.

So basically I just put my crosshair in every position and it should show up on all weapons? I just want to get this right, because editing DoD is a bit different than FA. Thanks again for the help, I'll try it out!

No, sorry, I didn't explain myself properly. I don't know how it works in FA, but when you choose a crosshair in DoD it works for every weapon. The fact that there are 16 slots only means that you can toggle through 16 different crosshairs in game (plus the dynamic one). None of these are associated with any gun in particular, unless you use a bind for that specific purpose.

So basically, just put your crosshair in one of the positions and that's it.
