Unzip the .ZIP file

Click on the .EXE

The new reticules will be saved to "~\red storm entertainment\ghost recon\data\shell\art folder"

If you want to use the reticles with original GR .gun files go to

~\RED STORM ENTERTAINMENT\GHOST RECON\ORIGMISS\EQUIP - here you find your .gun files.

IT IS NOT RECOMMENDED TO OVERWRITE ORIGINAL GR FILES (AT LEAST MAKE A BACK UP COPY

Right click on {the .gun file}, select properties and un-tick the 'READ ONLY' option. This allows you to save the changes.

Then open up {the .gun file} in notepad to change the settings of the reticule to those below.

<ReticuleTextureName>reticle_{insert the dvs1 reticule name here}.rsb</ReticuleTextureName>

<ReticulePipLeft>263</ReticulePipLeft>

<ReticulePipTop>0</ReticulePipTop>

<ReticulePipRight>279</ReticulePipRight>

<ReticulePipBottom>3</ReticulePipBottom>

<ReticuleBaseLeft>0</ReticuleBaseLeft>

<ReticuleBaseTop>0</ReticuleBaseTop>

<ReticuleBaseRight>263</ReticuleBaseRight>

<ReticuleBaseBottom>263</ReticuleBaseBottom>

<ReticulePipBaseOffset>2</ReticulePipBaseOffset>

<ReticulePipMaxOffset>240</ReticulePipMaxOffset>

After applying the changes or saving the notepad document your ready to play with your new reticule )

This is not something you should attempt until you understand the basic's of GR's weapon modding system.

There are plenty of tutorials (& posts) available on weapons modding.

It is best to copy the .gun files of the weapons that you wish to use the new reticules with into a new "favourites" mod (with the new reticules) and only activate it when needed that way it doesn’t overwrite any of the original GR files.

This isn’t really something that DVS1 could have packaged as a stand alone mod, being as much of the choice of what reticule’s to use with what weapon are for the user to decide.
