I can not express enough how much this mod has improved my aim/kills in insurgency. You are a god

is it poasible to overwrite some of the red dots here witn other custom reticle? and if so, how do you do that? thanks.

its a big withe cirle around the red dot wth..
Shotty  [author] 17 Aug, 2014 @ 4:27am 
I have an update in the works, but the way they made the red dot makes it very tricky todo, I'm running various tests to remove the tedious skybug that it brings.

Is there a way to get simple small red dots like you show in the pictures ? when not.. when can we get an update from you for it ?

I really enjoy this mod, and will probly use it indefinately. Only things I dislike are that they are square, and I honestly would like it if you made them even smaller.
Shotty  [author] 30 Jul, 2014 @ 2:22pm 
yes the point of the sights is to aim down as fast as possible, and crosshairs work for most people, personally i hate them though.. and what you see on the pictures are the first edition.. it had plenty of problems however and i don't even think i have it left on my computer. i will propably make them all about the same size and color in due time, it is however very fiddly to do so.. in due time and your points have been noted though.

Alright anyway I prefer 十 for 2x , ^ for 1x and red dot for square Scope now. I simply aware this is very unclear. Coz in fact the scope in game is totally not the same as the picture u showed. And as u can see my favorite mods list there's the best scope for c79 ever I've been tried honestly, which is also smaller 十 scope !!! By the way, for my opinion scope kind of something does not need some good looking and all same but we do need as quickly as possible aim to our enemies once in battles, isn't it ? For these so much words I wrote, I know my English is not so good ( I usully write a lot for some good authors as I like ) but all I wish is u could know what was not good enough. However, I like your all in one mod style. Also I do the same thing as weapon skin, coz it's easy !!!
Shotty  [author] 24 Jul, 2014 @ 1:31pm 
i also hate the red color, it makes me look crosseyed, so red is out of the question i'm afraid. its either dark blue and white or black and white.
Shotty  [author] 24 Jul, 2014 @ 12:57pm 
on the contraire white and black actually works better than red.
CmSauceG 24 Jul, 2014 @ 12:18pm 
I feel the color does not like so good because it has red in the dot but there is a white circle around the outer and for 8.7x MK4 & C79 scope those two change to blue dot which let me feel very very uncomfortable !!!
CmSauceG 24 Jul, 2014 @ 12:01pm 
No, that would be very not clealy. I feel Red like original style with little bit transparent but also smaller than it because it is easier to aim.
Shotty  [author] 24 Jul, 2014 @ 5:14am 
Well I feel that black and white is feels good, I might go back to that..
Shotty  [author] 14 Jul, 2014 @ 5:24am 
That is the actual reticle.
Toilet_Maxxer 13 Jul, 2014 @ 8:50pm 
I subrsibed to this mod and I'm getting a whitebox with a red dot in it as my optic aswell, any suggestions?
solistro 13 Jul, 2014 @ 8:14am 
THEY ARE QUITE OKAY
Wretched Snake 10 Jul, 2014 @ 7:58am 
Oh ok thankyou :D Got it!
Shotty  [author] 10 Jul, 2014 @ 6:04am 
Look unless you specifically want to add or remove something to the original, just start from scratch its easier, if you want to modify the excisting one, well enjoy spending an hour removing everything and possibly recoloring it and readding an alpha layer. I will give you one hint though, remove then additive effect in the vmt files, caused me alot of problems.
Wretched Snake 9 Jul, 2014 @ 11:01pm 
Do you think you could you tell me in a bit more detail? I'm kinda stumped with this :P
Shotty  [author] 9 Jul, 2014 @ 2:11pm 
I use GCFscape, but yes the original sight is messed up, and it's tricky to extract but with the power of photoshop and gimp it's possible.
Wretched Snake 9 Jul, 2014 @ 8:39am 
Hey dude, whenever I open the VTF files for the default red dot sight, all I get is a black square. Can you tell me how you opened the VTF?
Shotty  [author] 8 Jul, 2014 @ 3:31am 
it's also not meant to look pretty, and I find it to work very well.
Shotty  [author] 8 Jul, 2014 @ 3:29am 
I agree, I prefer it when it black and white but you can't please everyone.
.:Lucky:.™ 7 Jul, 2014 @ 1:34pm 
Doesn't work for me, I subscribe and all I get is a little red box with white outline as my sight. Doesn't look or work very well at all. Dunno what's going on.
Camper 6 Jul, 2014 @ 9:42am 
Would you be so kind and upload the old version too?
If that's not too much of a hassle that is...
Shotty  [author] 6 Jul, 2014 @ 7:39am 
It used to be smaller, but people complained it wasnt visible enough. I do have plans to reduce the 7x scope reticle smaller though.
Camper 6 Jul, 2014 @ 5:11am 
Could you make the reticle smaller?
RandalMcdaniel 29 Jun, 2014 @ 6:52pm 
Oh ok sorry, this is actually an ESSENTIAL mod for me now. I couldn't imagine playing without this. Good job
Shotty  [author] 29 Jun, 2014 @ 10:02am 
you dont have to do that anymore.
there was a bug within INS that you couldn't update the workshop files.. just subscribe and you get the same file now.
RandalMcdaniel 29 Jun, 2014 @ 12:09am 
I find it a bit shady that you want us to go to a third party website to download a new version of your reticule. Unofficial mods will get us vac banned
Balls, Batty And Dick 22 Jun, 2014 @ 10:36am 
woah rage much! calm ur (Y)
Shotty  [author] 22 Jun, 2014 @ 7:03am 
Like i've stated, it's not for everyone, if you don't like it just unsub.
No need of being a dick.
Balls, Batty And Dick 22 Jun, 2014 @ 5:57am 
they are crap
Kvltyst 20 Jun, 2014 @ 7:00am 
Got on Insurgency yesterday and played around. The sights are so much better. Thank you for this.
FALCOR 17 Jun, 2014 @ 8:07pm 
good sight for some situtions. needs better distinction,- black outline???
yoom 17 Jun, 2014 @ 9:20am 
your idea is the best I think but for me the dot is in white color and I would like in red . white is not good for light zone . :lampoff:
cyoce 16 Jun, 2014 @ 10:46am 
Make it for iron sights too. That would be really nice for some of the guns with crappy, cluttered, sights that cover your whole screen *cough cough* Mk18 *cough cough*
cyoce 16 Jun, 2014 @ 10:44am 
@RobotQuest
thanks

As far as i can tell its the same process, just locate where you have it installed and install it into the custom folder, if it doesnt exist create it.
LoserdomPlus 14 Jun, 2014 @ 8:28pm 
Like I can extract the files just fine (LPK, use The Unarchiver for Mac on .rar, great little app) but the location to extract (in the game's content files) doesn't exist on mac, I think it's kept in some DRM secured folder or cached through Steam's files or something like that?
cyoce 14 Jun, 2014 @ 3:16pm 
@RobotQuest
I have the same question. I'm running on a Mac, and I don't know how to use a .rar (if even possible)
LoserdomPlus 13 Jun, 2014 @ 10:08pm 
How do you use the patch on Mac?
MajJoker-OTF 11 Jun, 2014 @ 10:32am 
there good sights but the color white washes out in a light coroled map
Shotty  [author] 10 Jun, 2014 @ 9:51pm 
Download the unofficial patch and you'll get just that.
cyoce 10 Jun, 2014 @ 6:58pm 
Try red or green dot. They're the two most visible colors to our eyes. Plus, there isn't much green in Insurgency.
Shotty  [author] 10 Jun, 2014 @ 9:45am 
Download the unnofficial patch for various fixes and enjoy the mod.

Mr SFSF-KSA just press the 'Subscribed' button with the tick and you will unsubscribe.
Then restart your game.
[S.S.F]Craig 8 Jun, 2014 @ 11:41pm 
GUYS I WANT TO REMOVE IT HOW??
Bintang 8 Jun, 2014 @ 3:20pm 
great mod, I have to say though that i think red would be a much better choice. Just played heights and it's impossible to see the sight against the white sky background.
