Hi, I remember somewhere in 2022 or 2023, there was a thread where somebody posted a code on how to fix the crosshair.
Said fix was about moving the "fire" a bit more to the top so it's more accurate to the crosshair itself, because apparently GZDoom (Or perhaps it was Doom itself) has an inaccuracy with it where it's more at the bottom, this is visible when use Precise Crosshair or Laser Sight mod, where the Laser Sight tends to be below the Default Crosshair itself, especially when close at about 1 to 9 metres.
Could someone help me find it? Also, is it possible to use it as a "universal" fix for all weapon mods?
Crosshair fix?

Re: Crosshair fix?
The problem stems from the fact that the Doomguy's view is quite low (41 units from the ground IIRC). This effectively puts his eyes in his chest. However, the crosshairs are centred on the screen and the two things don't match up properly.
The way I have addressed this in the past is to have a custom player class with a modified viewheight and a modified AttackZOffset (which changes the height that attacks originate from). However, both of these will change the feel of the game.
