What I did for Poke646 was using four 256*256 sprites (stored as 4 frames in one file) to display a scope border with triapi. You can either draw the sprites in a Hud-Member function, that way you can work directly with screen coordinates, or you can do some math to draw it in world coordinates. That way you can also calc in some bob quite easily (which I didn't do, though). Might look a bit crappy when you run HL in really high resolutions, but it looks quite fine in 1024 and 1280 resolutions.
Well, just another idea, though. cya, TheTinySteini >Half-Life can't scale sprites by default. > >You could either code a method of scaling, or just do the norm and tile >sprites.
