Venom Crosshairs (or "Venomxhairs") is a client-side solution to automating the installation and make customization of weapon-specific crosshairs and explosion effect easier for Team Fortress 2.
Official teamfortress.tv thread.
Check out the releases and download here.
NOTE: If you already have an old custom/weapon-specific crosshair folder in \tf\custom
delete it or rename it to _VenomCrosshairsConfig
- Download the latest release found here.
- Extract the folder named
VenomCrosshairs
to a directory of your liking (that is NOT\tf\custom
). - Run
VenomCrosshairs.exe
and customize your weapon-specific crosshair config. - Hit "Install/Update" to install config.
- Set
cl_crosshair_file ""
in Team Fortress 2.
NOTE: Malwarebytes may report the executable as MachineLearning/Anomalous.X%
, you will have to manually exclude the VenomCrosshairs
folder to be able to use Venom Crosshairs alongside Malwarebytes. More details on this issue can be found here and also here, explained by a Staff member on Malwarebytes forum.
See the wiki.
Credit where it's due, the original idea of weapon-specific crosshairs in Team Fortress 2 (as far as I know) comes from a teamfortress.tv thread by joshuawn.
