Crosshair overlay

Design a crosshair, pick a hotkey and show it over windowed or borderless games.

Open Gaming › Crosshair.

Design it

  • Start from one of the 12 presets, or pick a style: Cross, Cross + dot, Dot, T, X, Circle, Circle + dot or Box.
  • Set the colour, length, gap, thickness, opacity, outline and offset.
  • The preview shows it at actual size, exactly as the overlay draws it, with a zoomed inset.
  • Save designs you like.

Show it

  • Select Show crosshair, or press the hotkey. The default is Ctrl + Alt + X; you can choose another under Hotkey & startup.
  • Optionally show it every time Nexus starts.

The overlay is a separate, click-through window on top of the screen. It doesn't read from or inject into the game.

It isn't visible in my game

  • Exclusive fullscreen hides overlays. Switch the game to borderless or windowed mode.
  • If the hotkey shows as unavailable, another app is using it. Pick a different one.
