[minimod][1.4.1] Precise Crosshair

[m8f]

I haven't decided yet if that feature will depend on loaded TargetSpy or it will work without TargetSpy.

In any case, it will be an option that is Off by default.

[vapidscum]

Some bugs I probably should've brought up sooner:
• Target Spy crosshair gets offset when not fullscreen
• Max distance + weirdness with it and no respect for crouching

The max distance issue has been less of an annoyance than I thought it would be when I found it, though after playing through Lost Civilization's massive spaces, I gotta bring it up.

[m8f]

Thanks for reporting! Sorry, but I won't be able to fix it quickly. Other doomish stuff consumes my time.

Hey, no problem, just wanted to make sure they're known.

[m8f]

Sudden update! v1.4 is out.

Fixes:
- aim when crouching;
- weirdness with big distance.

New:
- enhanced health color from GZDoom is ported;
- an option to show target health instead of player health;
- y position change is slightly smoother.

Also, Tekish added Vertical style for HitMarkers, so it's now more or less compatible with Precise Crosshair. Check it out, if you haven't already, it's a cool add-on, together with other things from Simple UI Add-ons.

One more thing: I vaguely remember that Precise Crosshair is displayed when the player looked through a security camera, but it shouldn't be. I checked on Doom 64: Retribution, and there it's OK. So, if you find a map where looking through a camera displays Precise Crosshair, please let me know.

Minor update: v1.4.1.

Changelog:

• fixed a bug when the crosshair wasn't displayed for certain weapons;
• added Pixel crosshair;
• moved strings to language lump.

[Neophyte_Ronin]

Virtually everything m8f makes should be booted into GZDoom and standardized. This one in particular. Because now I can be sure I am aiming at the dying imp's head for that +5 Health Bonus instead of hitting the body!

Can i implement precise crosshair into my mod?

[m8f]

Yes, but I have to warn you that Precise Crosshair uses a hack for calling play-scoped functions from ui code. I'd rather refactor it before including in other mods.

[Rodman909]

Playing this with Russian Overkill; after picking the Yellow Junk Box, which allows to dual-wield your starting pistol, the crosshair disappears when I switch to my pistol. Oddly, it still shows up with the other Slot 2 weapon (the satchel).

[m8f]

Set "Disable when weapon is not ready" option to "Nyet!" (off).

Why? I don't know at the moment. Created an issue so I don't forget.

It works really well, but for some reason it won't appear if the crosshair is set to none, but as I said, it work really well

are you serious? why are you trying to use a crosshair with no crosshair

are you serious? why are you trying to use a crosshair with no crosshair

because the instructions says that I should set it to none?

[wildweasel]

It says "Default crosshair must be not None" - emphasis on that "not."
