Scout Default Xhair

Basically I like using the default scout xhair (cl_crosshair_file default ) in white, but it's quite hard to see against the background.

The default scout xhair you get with 'exec defaultXhair' seems to show up better but doesnt feel as nice for me to use.

Having seen scouts like Puoskari use default xhair on stream and it was visible enough, any ideas what kind of settings i need to tweak (brightness or colouring or whatever) so that I can actually see the fucker when i'm aiming?

I know monitor settings can also play a part but wouldn't know what to change there (brightness, contrast, saturation etc)

https://cfg.tf/ check if this has the default scout xhair, you can then add a border to it to see better

the larger the cl_crosshair_scale you'll use the better the visibility of the crosshair, not just in terms of size but in how strong the color stands out, try using the default crosshair scale on 20 and then on 60 and then you'll see what I'm talking about, the scale doesn't just control the size of the crosshair but the clarity of it as well.

default.vtf is the one as it currently is in the game files
default_clean.vtf is an attempt I made a while back to make it more visible and not be grey
Can make it even more visible if needed. Let me know. Enjoy

edit: Am in a rush but made a somewhat functional outlined version for pot8o. also in DL folder

Cheers all, I'll play around and see what fits.

I tried your xhair Tob and it felt pretty good, many thanks.

you can also use both the default crosshair and a HUD crosshar, like a dot or small cross centered on the default crosshair. This way you can have the HUD crosshair part have a main color and an outline color.
