Any way of hiding the reticle when aiming downsights?

[Raigiku]

@Cerfon: Can you post your hud, or at least the relevant parts? Not sure how to fix that. Are those screen sizes the same aspect ratio? If they only look different in different ratios, perhaps a different hud could be used for each ratio.

I finally got it to fix floating icons at the same time as adding ironsights, which was the biggest issue I personally have had with it, so here's my current 1playerhud.

I should point out that in one place "mesh" is changed to "change" in the Group("player1weapon1groupforironsights") section, and this was the last change I made that got it working. So don't miss it. Or just copy this and insert the values from yours.

This was using the Floating Weapon Icon tutorial made by Mike Z, Majin Revan, and Fragme! I think.

Edit: looks like icons that didn't need the icon fix before now place an extra icon in the top left corner. probably can fix by... OK, I'm not sure. I'll work on that one another time...

Edit2: got it. added an example to the code above. this will probably have to be done to every stock weapon, or weapons used in the 1.3 patch.

I've been using this method to get iron sights working and I was wondering if there was any way the reticle could be hidden but unfortunately I couldn't find any way to do it. Please help me

You mean the reticle when you zoom like the sniper rifle, or simpy the reticle on the midle of the screen ? If yes, then in your weapon odf, there's something like :

Code: Select all

AimScope = 1

or

Code: Select all

ScopeZoom = 1

I don't remember well how's called that line, but change the '1' to '0'

I someone can tell us how's called that line, I'm not gonna say no, thanks =)

[AnthonyBF2]

Play around with these commands in your gun ODF:

Code: Select all

ReticuleInAimingOnly
SniperScope
ZoomFirstPerson

They all operate with 1 or 0

[CT108]

Code: Select all

ReticuleInAimingOnly
SniperScope
ZoomFirstPerson

I was close ^^
