Nevermind, I got it to work. I didn't take into consideration the vtf file of the reticule had to specifically be named "aimpoint_reticule" so once I renamed it to that, it started working.

So I followed all the steps in your 2015 youtube video on how to create a reticle, however, when I try to use the custom reticle, it doesn't even register in game. All I see is the default reticle. To give more information, I've been trying to create a PK-AS reticle that has the thick red dot from your BF4 version while having the thinner black circle from this mod. However, every single time I drag my folder onto vpk to create it in vpk form, then put that into /insurgency2/insurgency/custom all I get is the default 2x reticle. If you could offer any help or insight, that would be appreciated.

This is too precise for me but its good.

Best 2x aimpoint reticle in workshop. Great job! ty
For those who optimize graphics/performance in .cfg :
It's unusable on mat_picmip 2
rather pixelated on mat_picmip 1
but on mat_picmip 0 and -1 it's so sharp, precise and very easy to use, headshots rollin' in

I would like less "precise" version with larger dot. This looks even smaller than eotech 1 MOA dot
