Title: Gunsight
Post by: Furball on February 03, 2005, 01:44:29 PM
I'm not really into all these historical sights, i like a small dot just to aim with because i set the head position higher than the default and usually all the historical ones are half missing because of it.

I had a play round with Waffles excellent historical US gunsight to suit my playing style and view system, and came up with this.  Just brightened up the middle and resized everything.

It wont be to everyone's taste, but some of you may want to use it so i thought i would put it here.

View is moved forward and raised (page up key) helps visibility when shooting.  I have a forward view key assigned to move the view forward and up for when i shoot.

Aim still sucks though :D

I cant zoom in and shoot...seems all my inputs are exaggerated and any rudder or elevator input jumps it all around.
