[SKIN] Unobstructive crosshairs

Halo may be a good game, but we can all agree on one thing: Bungie has no idea how to make functional crosshairs, or a target reticle as some people like to call it. This makes aiming a pain, because the crosshairs are usually so big that they take up a lot of the screen, making it hard to aim (the rocket launcher comes to mind). Or, there usually is not an indication as to where the exact middle pixel of the screen is, making long range precision shots excessively difficult at times (like the pistol, plasma rifle or plasma pistol). My crosshairs skin fixes both of these problems. It replaces all crosshairs in the game with a 5 simple dots placed in a cross pattern, with the middle dot slightly translucent. This has improved my accuracy, that's for sure. It might help you aim a bit too, so that's why I posted this here!
VERSION 1.01
- Pistol and Assault Rifle crosshairs are no longer too high.
WHAT HASN'T CHANGED
- Sniper rifle and warthog driver crosshairs are the default ones, because they are fine.
- The rocket launcher warthog gunner crosshairs are slightly smaller, due to the fact that the texture for the rocket warthog crosshairs is smaller than the other textures.
- Covenant turret crosshair is slightly bigger than the others, because of it's odd texture dimensions. You also need to aim slightly higher, like you always have.
- It is still illegal to use these in professional games

It says not to use this in PROFESSIONAL games. You know, those games where people play with money on the line? You're not allowed to use ANY mods of any kind in those.
On the crosshairs, I think this is quite an original idea. Very nice. You get a "Good".

I like this but, if you know how to properly aim, you truely don't need accurate crosshairs.
Anyways, I like the idea, as it can help noobies in their shoots, I give it a 7.5/10

. Keep it up.

It's not a swap. The unarmed ones look completly different.
What I ment by you can't use it for professional games is that for leagues like KW, you have to run an anti-cheat program that scans for stuff like this, and if you are caught, you are disqualified.

Reminds me of one of the Half Life/Counter Strike crosshairs.
Nifty.

You don't know that that always happens if you shoot too fast?

I know that i just said not all the time because it still means the same thing. I know it is if you shoot fast but there is no point of shooting slow at somone because you will die before you do good damage.
