I find the full screen scopes to be weak and kind of a cheat. Since a scope when you look into it is circular not a square.

cheat? full screen dont really offer much of a bonus unless your snipe camping like a li'l bitch. if your constantly moving from spot to spot after killing one or two people you dont need widepan scope.

anyway cant be bothered to post screenies but i use animated scopes, groovy little inward pointing arrows at the target area.

Hey I use some custom I downloaded here @ aa.com.
Pretty sweet.

Being stupid though I don't know how to attach screenshots. I'll email 'um to any who want them though. PM me for my address

How did you figure out how to do that RedEye???

basically partly thanks to you doing that animated avatar thing, i downloaded it and found out abou the AnimMap script. after some experimenting i just adapted it, made 4 seperate tga's with the arrow's moving in each frame. because the tgas are clamped you need to clamp them individually so your shader looks like this:


textures/hud/zoomoverlay
{
surfaceparm nolightmap
nomipmaps
nopicmip
{
clampmap textures/hud/zoomoverlay.tga
clampmap textures/hud/zoomoverlay2.tga
clampmap textures/hud/zoomoverlay3.tga
clampmap textures/hud/zoomoverlay4.tga

animmap 5 textures/hud/zoomoverlay.tga textures/hud/zoomoverlay2.tga textures/hud/zoomoverlay3.tga textures/hud/zoomoverlay4.tga
blendFunc blend
}
}

i switch back and forth between custom and default. I don't know y though i just like all the realistic scopes.

I was kidding Red! I know how you did it oOo: but why did you clamp the tga's?

if you dont clamp the tga's when the game mirrors it all up the edges of the tga's don't meet properly and you get gaps between each tga, looks horrible. arg i suck at the animation thing anyway, there's a bit of flashing where i screwed up the some of the alpha's,

my faveriot scopes are the Laser scopes

Cool... thanks 4 the tip... i hate the masks man!! cry: try doing 64 of them..thats how many in my mod!! oOo: argh...

Same, but I also use the Axis one, I actually prefer Axis scope ...

i use TDR allied and centre dot axis, i will post them later.
