Inaccurate crosshair

[Moon Hoplite]

Hi,

 

This is mainly a question about doom 3 with various other mods (and maybe TDM).

 

I have 1.3.1 installed correctly.

 

However, my crosshair is inaccurate. Bullets hit a little lower right off the crosshair target.

 

This never happens in vanilla doom 3.

 

It happens in perfected 5.1.0 mod and some graphical mod.

 

Any help? Thanks.

Don't really know what to tell you Moon, but it just sounds like an issue with that Mod. Have you tried contacting the authors, or posting about this on Doom 3 World? If it doesn't happen in Vanilla D3, that's a pretty good indication that it's a problem with that particular mod.

This has mainly happened in mods with possibly bloom and HDR.

 

Doom 3 world seems pretty inactive.

 

I think it's an ATI mobility problem?

 

Will TDM have the same problem? Thanks.

I honestly don't know. I've never heard of this issue before you brought it up.

 

Perhaps those mods have altered the place where the ammo comes out of in the game, but HDR and Bloom shouldn't have any effect on something like that.

TDM doesnt have a crosshair, so it's hard to tell.

 

It's definately a bloom problem. Vanilla doom 3 doesnt have it. Every mod in doom 3 with bloom gives me the crosshair problem with my ATI mobility.

 

How to disable all of the bloom/HDR features? Delete the line entries in autoexec.cfg and doomconfig?

I've tested to see if our arrows pass through the crosshair by going into D3, marking the center of the crosshair, and aiming with it. Works fine.

Very weird. I honestly don't know why this would happen with an ATI card and bloom, but then again...ATI seems to create a lot of issues.

I honestly don't know. You would have to check the instructions that came with those mods. There should be a list of cvars that can be controlled through the console.

This crosshair bug happens to me in every mod which includes advanced graphical enhancements.

 

TDM works fine, however (yay).

 

Anyone with catalyst 10.11 getting this issue too?

 

ATI mobility 5730 x64 bit, windows 7.

 

Could anyone recommend a good ATI mobility driver version who doesnt have this issue in other mods?

 

Thanks

Have you gone through the process of Disabling Catalyst AI?

Of course. I use 10.11 CCC it's off.

 

It's definately off, by using the default CCC settings

 

that's why doom 3 vanilla and TDM are fine

What is your native resolution? Are you running at your native res?

 

(I might have an idea about what's going on, but it's a loooong shot)

1366 vs 768. 16:10

 

I dont think so. I've tried different resolution.

 

Im telling you, it's the bloom and HDR features in these kind of mods (sikkmod, Denton's and perfected).

 

That's why vanilla doom and TDM are fine with crosshairs for me.

 

This issue is not only me, it happened to a few people apparently.
