How to change the mortar rets:

Open your weapons.ini file and go down to the line that says:
[EquipmentClasses.WeaponMo rtar]
hudReticule=texture'NeoDo t.reticuleLob'
;hudReticuleCenterX=64
;hudReticuleCenterY=15


change the words "reticuleLob" to either of these following:
1)"reticuleMortarLines" Same reticle range finder except without the numbers on the side.
2) "reticuleMortarNoLines" just the simple red dot reticle with no range finder.
3) save and close.

Ex: to use the reticuleMortarLines I would have this and only this:
;
[EquipmentClasses.WeaponMo rtar]
hudReticule=texture'NeoDo t.reticuleMortarLines'
;

the two lines referring to the X and Y centers can be deleted because currently they are
commented out. Makes no difference.

Enjoy.

*EDIT*
Updated the weapons.ini file to include turrets and vehicles. They also now have red dots for reticles.

holy crap i love you

Perfect, cept for the range finders.

i LIKE the rangefinders, i wish my redrets had em. nice to be able to visually figure it out.

I like it.

I prefer a ret like one in UT99. It is a dot with a semicircle under it with a small line to the right and left of the dot connecting to the upper ends of the semicircle.

hey this thing rocks, but i cant read the numbers on the mortar/grenade rets, i dont use them anyway, how can i remove them? i'd like to keep the lines tho.

Finally!!!

can you make some without the range finders too :(

nothanks but thanks

throw that flag to me :)

Updated the NeoDot.pkg to include a few variations of the reticle. One of them without the numbers, another without the lines and numbers (just a dot). re-download it and read the readme. You basically just change 1 line of text in the weapons.ini to change the rets to your liking.

it is not centered when you enter a bomber its alittle low I believe plus its all distorted

fixed. PM me any more ret problems that are found.

Thank you Neo, for the updated version, especially the smaller white dot. This is exactly what I used in T2 for years, and it's great to have the same thing in T:V.


Best Regards!
