📋 About This Mod

I'm honestly surprised that no-one's done this yet.

This mod edits the railgun reflex sight textures to do the following:

  • []Replaces the dot reticle with a much smaller one, to obscure the target less.

    []Removes a lot of the clutter from the sight's edges, leaving only the thin green outline.

  • Optionally, replaces the railgun charge indicator with a higher contrast one (Where safe charge is a white-green gradient, overcharge is yellow, and you only see red once you reach max charge).

    Comes in a mod manager-ready archive.

    Note that due to using shared assets, this will also replace the arc thrower sights.

    When using the high contrast charge indicator replacement, note that the charge indicators may have strange reflections in certain lighting conditions, even when not charging. This happens with the vanilla textures as well (since the charge indicator texture is actually always there, the game just "illuminates" it as you charge) - It's just more noticeable with the new ones.

    NEW - I have also added an optional extra "Cleaner Railgun Charge Indicator" patch file that tries to remove the "pixelated/glitchy screen" effect from the charge bars. This can be used alone, or in combination with any of the changes in the main file. It mostly works, but due to the somewhat convoluted way that this filter is implemented in the game, this replacement may make the charge bars look a bit odd and discolored.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Community favorite with 568 endorsements and nearly 20k downloads.
  • Simple visual upgrade that declutters your aiming view.
  • Optional charge indicator recolor adds a personal touch.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only affects the railgun sight—if you don't use that weapon, this mod does nothing for you.
  • No screenshots or detailed previews in the description, so you're flying blind on the exact look.
  • Compatibility with other sight or HUD mods is unverified—could conflict if they touch the same textures.
🎯 Is This For You?
For players who find the default railgun sight too busy and want a cleaner aiming reticle. Also for those who like subtle visual tweaks without overhauling the whole game. Skip if you rarely use the railgun or prefer a more tactical, detailed sight.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • If you're using a mod manager, let it handle the file placement to avoid overwriting the wrong textures.
  • Check if the mod has an optional file for the charge indicator—you can pick just the sight or both.
  • If you have other sight mods, install this one last to ensure it takes priority.
