CrossSight

Quick start (≈1 minute)

1. Run CrossSight.exe.
2. A default small green crosshair and dark circular aim zone appear at the center of your main screen.
3. Alt-tab to the CrossSight window to tweak crosshair size, color, gap, and aim zone strength.
4. Leave CrossSight open and start a game or app in borderless windowed or windowed fullscreen mode.
5. Clicks and keypresses still go to your game/app — the overlay is click-through.

Crosshair controls

• Enable crosshair – master on/off toggle.
• Color – pick anything; high-contrast colors (cyan, magenta, white) plus a dark outline stand out best.
• Thickness – line width in pixels.
• Line length – how far the arms extend from the center.
• Gap – empty space around the center.
• Center dot & radius – optional dot size in the middle.
• Outline – extra dark border around lines and dot so the crosshair is readable on bright or noisy backgrounds.

Aim zone & patterns

The aim zone is a dimmed “reading window” around your crosshair. It increases contrast so targets stand out without blinding the rest of the screen.

• Enable aim zone – turn the contrast window on/off.
• Shape – circle, box, diamond, or wide (a full-width bar across the screen at crosshair height).
• Radius / half-height – size of the circle/box or the height of the wide bar.
• Fill color – usually black; you can tint it if you prefer.
• Fill alpha – how strong the dimming is (0 = off, 100 = very dark).
• Pattern – optional structure inside the aim zone:
  • grid – faint grid lines;
  • rings – concentric circles;
  • radial – spokes from center;
  • scanline – horizontal lines for a subtle CRT/sharpness feel.
• Pattern color / thickness / intensity – how visible those lines are.

Presets

• Give your current setup a name and click Save preset to store it as a JSON file.
• Presets live in your user config folder and can be shared just by sending the .json file.
• Use the Load button to switch between presets for different games or lighting conditions.
• CrossSight automatically remembers the last settings you used and restores them on next launch.

Tips

• Keep the crosshair small and clean; let the aim zone do most of the contrast work.
• Use a bright color + dark outline for clarity on both bright skies and dark interiors.
• Try the wide bar shape with gentle scanlines if you mostly care about horizontal tracking.
• If the overlay disappears behind a game, switch that game to borderless windowed.

Troubleshooting

• Overlay not visible? Some games in exclusive fullscreen can cover any overlay. Use borderless/windowed fullscreen instead.
• Overlay flickers or goes behind other windows? Make sure CrossSight is still running; bringing its window to the front once usually fixes stacking.
• Mouse clicks not working? CrossSight is designed to be click-through; if something feels off, try restarting it and your game.
