If you're looking to remove the crosshairs from all weapons, use my No Crosshair Mod instead of this one.

Is this mod compatible with the REMASTERED version of the game?
Yes. You need to create a ~mods folder inside of your Paks folder and place all mods inside this folder. Other than this, following all instructions above should still work.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 348 endorsements and over 13k downloads—clearly a hit.
- Simple, focused improvement: red dot crosshairs make aiming feel more precise.
- Covers all major weapon types, so you get consistent aiming across your loadout.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in February 2023—may not work with the latest game patches.
- Purely cosmetic; doesn't change gameplay mechanics or add new features.
For players who find the default crosshairs too bulky or imprecise and want a cleaner aiming reticle. Perfect for shooters who prefer a minimal red dot over spread indicators. Skip if you're happy with the vanilla crosshairs or want gameplay-altering mods.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this is a simple file replacement, back up your original crosshair files before overwriting.
- Check if the mod requires a mod manager or manual installation—if manual, place files in the correct game directory.
- If you're using other crosshair mods, ensure they don't conflict by loading this one last.
