Made a few crosshairs of my own, links below. I have no idea how these things scale, only tested them for my 1920x1080 resolution.

I'm pretty new to this, even though I'm aware of Shootmania since it went public for first time somewhen around sumemr last year.

However, following this thread, I thought it wouldn't be to strenous to create a cross, more like how simple is it to create sprites for quake, cs and co, but in the end using the aforementioned Nvidia plug-in I encounter a few problems.

Opening files is kinda fine, as the mipmaps are self-explaining, albeit it's kinda interesting that they scale down to a single pixel cross... what does that mipmap levels in the cross file tell us ?

Getting back to my main question, if opening the nucleus default dds you get a cross with several levels of green and grey in it, how do the different level of green and the grey actually effect the cross ?
Is there a tutorial about this ?

And how do you save the finished file ?

The Nvidia plug-in gives you a myriad of possible saving options from 4bpp to 128bpp, RGB to ABGR gamut, multiple Alpha channel options and so much stuff, what's the right config for Shotomania default criss cross hairs ?
