I've just started getting back into UT and have been installing a lot of packs. Now I notice on some maps (or maybe it's server specific) I have no reticle/crosshair, though I can fire and see it's hitting. I can't see any gun in my view either, except the translocator.
I've searched here but couldn't find anything similar.
thanks

Disappearing crosshairs?
Re: Disappearing crosshairs?
Hey man, such problems can be nasty!
Do you use any custom crosshair, or just the standard one ?
And did you checked that your weapon model is not hidden?
You can check this at preferences->game.

Re: Disappearing crosshairs?
Good ideas - thanks. I made my settings incl xhair Default now but I just tried one server and everything was normal, then tried another server and no weapon in view or xhairs. So perhaps it's server specific.
Re: Disappearing crosshairs?
This happens if the server offers a weapon but does not force the client to download and load the package containing the weapon. Probably the server admin has forgotten to add the package to the "ServerPackages" of his server's INI file.PKP-Stinker wrote:I can fire and see it's hitting. I can't see any gun in my view either

Re: Disappearing crosshairs?
That would make sense. I've only been to a few servers so far, so maybe if I keep checking out servers eventually one of them will push the weapon files to me. I take it that's really the only way to get new/mod weapons.
Re: Disappearing crosshairs?
yes, you have the package in your UT cache then, but in order to use it properly, it must be loaded into memory also. This is always done with the ones listed in a server's ServerPackages.PKP-Stinker wrote:eventually one of them [the servers] will push the weapon files to me
I'd try to contact the server admin.
