Tob's Crosshairs

I've been making crosshairs for a couple years now, but never really made any of them easily available to the public (not counting that one time 200 asked me for a couple of crosshair packs which ended up becoming cfg.tf's crosshair pack in which I accidentally included 3 "tob" crosshairs)

Github
Preview (crosshairs are all white, just green for the preview)

Latest Change

Current features

  • Some VTF crosshairs I made. Some based on requests, some inspired by other crosshairs
  • No VMT files. 1 VMT takes 1 minute to create. Tutorial on github. All you do is change 1 line of text and rename a file.

To Do

  • Scour my folders for more crosshairs to upload
  • Improve preview album (don't count on it)
  • Youtube tutorial for how I make crosshairs. Leth's tutorial works just fine, but I make them a bit differently. I skip the VTFedit step using a plug-in

I will consider making crosshairs when requested.
Keep in mind I don't want to spend time making VTF crosshairs that might see use for 1 day or already exist as VTF but look slightly different. You're able to use mine (wip) or Leth's tutorials to edit the crosshair yourself.
I don't have any talents in design or art so your result will likely be as good as mine if not better

Other resources:
cfg.tf
Leth's tutorial

VTF names will be changed so these might be outdated in the future or not include all crosshairs

great job, nice to see that they are white (at least tobdot) so you can set color yourself :-). doesn't show that on the screenshots though!

yea all of them are white, but imgur dislikes transparent backgrounds so I make them all green with a white background layer

donghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o__gCWr5PWU&t=882s can you make the dot from this video

Looks extremely similar to Leth's crosshair5OL. It's available on cfg.tf

I'll use this opportunity to say I've made some more crosshairs, but I am bad at github and my naming/folders currently are quite shit. Also someone pointed out one of the default rework crosshairs is blurry because I messed up the VTF flags. oopsies.
It's a decent amount of work so I'm just looking for a day where I feel bored enough to remake the entire github/add the new ones/edit the old ones

Small update

fixes

  • Crosshairs renamed. Names should be more clear now
  • Hopefully fixed a broken default rework crosshair. I don't remember which one was broken. So I reuploaded a bunch of them and hope it's one of those
  • Updated the preview. It's a bit messy but it does the trick

new crosshairs

  • highfive: scatter2_outline, but the dot has no outline. It was a request from someone based on an old Highfive VOD so I named it after him
  • rays: remake of a Seeker-like crosshair which Rays used to use. Thinner and smaller than regular Seeker.
  • cfg.tf tob_ crosshairs: The tob_ crosshairs on cfg.tf sometimes bleed color into the black brackets. These versions shouldn't have that issue? example

Not many new crosshairs.
While I do make a lot of crosshairs still, many are 90% the same as already popular crosshairs.
So most of them would just add clutter to the github.
I do take requests if people have ideas for crosshairs that are currently hard to come by

Update

fixes

  • scatter2_shadow2 shouldn't bleed color out of the dot anymore. Didn't test, but fixed the same issue before similarly. lmk
  • ql3_thick was actually ql2_thick all along. Name changed to reflect that. I usually just guess which one is 2 and 3. Guessed wrong that time
  • ql2_big got changed? ngl lads this is something I did months ago and don't remember this. so your guess is as good as mine

new crosshairs
13 new crosshairs. Not all are winners. I had some short phase where I was making gradients and inverting crosshairs. Bon appetit

where is the scatter2_outline cannot seem to find it

should be scatter2_shadow2 in the brackets folder?
i make outlines by inverting the white layer to black and blurring it
so any "outline" crosshair I make is actually just a shadow that i copied until it becomes dark enough to be considered an outline
