Gunsight
« on: December 02, 2013, 05:54:09 PM »
Been looking into hoping into fighters again, and have been looking everywhere for a gunsight, but can't find it and I'm too stupid to figure out how to make one. I guess that would be laziness instead of stupidity.  :old:

A simple red dot gunsight. I've waded through plenty of forum posts about gunsights and Google searches to no prevail to finding this gunsight. If anybody could get me a download that would be great.  :cheers:

Take a screen shot from your favorite fighter looking through the gunsight at full zoom. Open it in your favorite art program and place either a dot or a circle the size you want for the finished product. Post that back in this thread. From your screen shot I will be able to determine the Mil diameter and return you several "Dot" style gunsights in shades of red.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

I've been using the "DeathDotGreen" sight from the Stickwork's gunsight package...it's basically what you posted except it's green.  Not sure where to download that package anymore but can send it to you if you wish.
Going by "Hoplite" now. :)

I downloaded them so so long ago I do not remember (the sight collection was from 2009 if I recall correctly). 

I have a copy of the zip file on my home server I could send to you or post up on a file sharing site if you wish.
