RedNova Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 I was using a custom crosshair but someone told me that i could be ban for that so i am wondering is this is true. If someone that he is sure about it can answer to that it could be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If someone that he is sure about it can answer to that it could be cool. 1) Is this on an Official server? If it's not Official (which means Unofficial, private dedicated or Single Player) then you have nothing to worry about. 2) If you're on an Official... when you say custom crosshair, do you mean that you installed a mod that lets you have a custom crosshair on Official servers? If so then you might be at risk. Official servers don't support the use of any modifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anocelot Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 If you want a custom crosshair that works for any game and is undetectable you could always use a couple markers 😛 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't use any mods on Official, which is how they maintain a level playing field. Personally, I agree that they could (and should) do a better job of offering some degree of customization in the base/Official game. There's nothing special about offering 6-8 different crosshair options so people can choose the option that feels best to them. There are plenty of games that do this (World of Tanks comes to mind, a PvP based game). But, regardless of what I think WC should offer the simple fact is that they don't, and the use of mods on Official servers is a ban-able offense.

Everyone can have the free software i was using so everyone can have the same experience. And there is a "Allow corsshair" option on ark that you can uncheck if you dont want the ark crosshair so that could mean you can use your own one.

I understand that argument, and it would apply if this was a game that supports mods on Official servers, but it's not. Any and all mods are explicitly forbidden on Official servers so it doesn't matter whether it's free or not. If it's not built into the client then it's a banable offense. 3 hours ago, RedNova said: And there is a "Allow corsshair" option on ark that you can uncheck if you dont want the ark crosshair so that could mean you can use your own one. I dont know I do know, it doesn't mean that. The only options that WildCard has approved are to use the crosshair they have provided or turn the crosshair off. They have not approved, and in fact have explicitly forbidden, the use of any other crosshairs on Official servers. Using "your own one" is a bannable offense if they find out. I'm not trying to tell you what to do, I'm not even telling you whether I agree with them or not, you began this thread by asking a question and I'm simply answering your question, nothing more.

The answer is (as far as I know) that anything which changes your crosshair is not legal and can get you banned. Now if you have some information that WildCard has approved the overlay that's fine, if I'm wrong about this then I'm happy to find that out. The only goal in this thread is to answer the OP's question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
