About this mod Author’s original text

Mysterious.Crosshairs

This is a mod for Titanfall 2's Northstar Client that allows you to modify any weapons's crosshair.

I'll add more weapon types over time until I've got everything covered.

INSTRUCTIONS

INSTALLATION:

This mod is compatible with:

VTOL,

Viper And

Manual Installation:

1: Download the latest release From the Release Page

2: Extract the zip file and move the folder "Mysterious.Crosshairs" to

~\Titanfall2\R2Northstar\mods\

Common Game Install Locations:

Steam: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Titanfall2

Origin: C:\Program Files (x86)\Origin Games\Titanfall2

How To Modify Crosshairs:

1: Go to ~/Titanfall2/R2Northstar/mods/Mysterious.Crosshairs/keyvalues/scripts/weapons/mp_weapon_[desired weapon].txt

2: you'll see something that looks like this:

WeaponData

{

RUI_CrosshairData

{

Crosshair_1

{

"ui" "ui/crosshair_alternator" //This is the part you want to change

}

}

}

3: change "ui/crosshair_alternator" to your desired crosshair

NOTE: Sometimes it helps to remove //comments

Overlapping Crosshairs

It is possible to combine crosshairs by modifying the mp_weapon_[Desired Weapons].txt

Below is an example of combining the Alternator and R201 crosshairs into one

WeaponData

{

active_crosshair_count "2" //Amount of crosshairs you want to use

RUI_CrosshairData

{

Crosshair_1 //Crosshair 1 Start

{

"ui" "ui/crosshair_alternator" //First Crosshair

} //Crosshair 1 End

Crosshair_2 //Crosshair 2 Start

{

"ui" "ui/crosshair_tri" //Second Crosshair

} //Crosshair 2 End

}

}

**To add more crosshairs add another Crosshair_X following the formating in the script above.

The limit for this seems to be 4 Crosshairs onscreen at once**

How the script above appears:

Adjust Crosshair Spread?

Simple add

``

"base_spread" "3.0" //This is a spread Multiplier

``

Below the "ui" line, Like this

{

RUI_CrosshairData

{

Crosshair_1

{

"ui" "ui/crosshair_alternator" //THis is the Croshair

"base_spread" "3.0" //This is a spread Multiplier, Line doesnt exist by default

}

}

}

NOTE: This only effects the visual spread of the crosshair, not actual bullet spread. Positive Values increase spread while negative decreases it.

No Crosshair?

WeaponData

{

RUI_CrosshairData

{

Crosshair_1

{

"ui" "ui/crosshair_sniper_amped" //This means NO crosshair

}

}

}

In Theory, any RUI can work, just don't ask me where to find them

Extra Info

It is reccomended to test this out in a private match first.

Save any changes you made to the desired weapon's file and type reload in your console

All weapons that make use of special crosshairs have their defaults in place, But there is nothing preventing you from modifying them, all the files are there.

Keep in mind that some weapons have animated or dynamic crosshairs.

Weapons like the Charge Rifle, Cold Wae, Frag Grenade, etc... have specially animated crosshairs. which can cause weirdness or jank when used on other weapons or when using other crosshairs on them.

Thank you to Cpone#0001 from the Northstar Discord for helping me figure this out

Install & use Install: Northstar client mod

  1. Install the Northstar client first (the open-source community client for Titanfall 2; its release page provides an installer). It loads the mods.
  2. Unzip the archive from playbuff and put its contents into the Northstar/mods/ folder inside your Titanfall2 directory.
  3. Start the game through NorthstarLauncher.exe — the console lists the mods it loaded.

Northstar is for private servers and custom content; do not use it to connect to official servers.
