Problem with crosshairs

I did but no luck. My new LCD arrived today and I found out that using lower
interpolated resolution in UT doesn't look all that bad.
Guess I'll play like that, bah.

Nice model, I was considering it for a while. Mine is advertised as 6ms gray
to gray and I can pretty much say it is as responsive in games as my old
CRT, 997NF.

Cheers and happy fragging!

Have you tried messing with the crosshair style in the options? I think
you can in this game (like most deathmatch games), and perhaps just
inkering with it will send it back to normal.

I have an AG Neovo 19" LCD @ 12ms and it runs awesome for games. Cheers!

This is from Samsung's site -

6 ms (g to g) response and pva panel does sound good, some nice viewing
angles too.

Afaik, Dell 1905FP comes in two versions, one with 20ms and other with 8ms
response time panel. You most likely have 8ms version (or eyes with an
interesting anti-ghosting feature :)

Luckily my crappy V9570 has one, so I'm sticking with it for now.
Cheers.

I took a peek at the 970p and the specs don't really look all that
great. Response time is 20 ms which is a bit high for a TFT panel.
Some mfgs. today are offering as low as 8 ms response time.

But I can't really talk, since mine (Dell 1905FP) is also advertised
at about 20 ms

but seems to do fine. I read dozens of reviews of my monitor before I
bought it, and while some people loved it others complained about
severe ghosting. Personally, I never see any ghosting but then I'm
looking at it through 52 year old eyes. ;-)

My only recommendation is to use a DVI connector. If your vid card
doesn't have one then maybe it's time to switch to one that does. An
analog connection simply won't do any LCD monitor justice.

I already made a bunch of my own (a bit of a crosshair freek here, he he).
The only one that I find usable now is a single pixel dot which looks almost
as a normal dot, minus some clarity though. Anyhow if I find some other
solution I'll post it back here.

Yes, I wanted to see if UT99 would even run at that resolution since it's
not selectable from menu and I had to manually put it in
unrealtournament.ini.

This is how default crosshair looks like on 1280x1024:

Not pretty :/

I guess it's an UT99 specific thingie then. I can only hope then to get a
bright dot pixel at the exact center of my new screen.

On a side note - are you satisfied with how your LCD performs in games?
I decided to go for Samsung 19" 970p. Its specs look great but I'm a bit
anxious about how it will turn out in practice.

Yes, UT scales them rather poorly at the larger resolutions.

I don't know a fix, however there are user-made crosshairs around that
might be an improvement - google for "ut crosshair" to find a bunch of
sites and instructions.

I'm assuming that you're changing your existing CRT to that resolution
to test? All things being equal, your crosshairs (and everything
else) should have gotten smaller and sharper, since that's the normal
outcome from going to a higher screen resolution.

Maybe you should wait to see what they're actually going to look like
on the new monitor. FWIW, I went from a 1024 x 768 CRT to a 1280 x
1024 19" LCD and didn't have any problems with crosshairs, although
I'm playing UT2004 and not UT99.
