First of all, thank you Garry for helping me. Anyway, I still have problem to do what I want. My goal is to be able to specify a size for the crosshair. Currently I'm proceeding like this:
CHudTexture *tex = new CHudTexture(); if ( !tex ) return; // Key Name is the sprite name Q_strncpy( tex->szShortName, "crosshair", sizeof( tex->szShortName ) ); tex->bRenderUsingFont = true; tex->cCharacterInFont = crosshair_font_char.GetString()[0]; // Garry Newman code in here tex->hFont = vgui::surface()->CreateFont(); vgui::surface()->SetFontGlyphSet( tex->hFont, "crosshairs", pg_test.GetInt(), 0, 0, 0, 0x200 ); // where crosshairs is refering to crosshairs.ttf // End of GN code // Q_strncpy( tex->szTextureFile, "client_scheme_crosshairs", sizeof( tex->szTextureFile ) ); // Previously I was using this, but I don't want to refer to ClientScheme any more. pWeaponInfo->iconCrosshair = gHUD.AddUnsearchableHudIconToList( *tex ); pWeaponInfo->iconZoomedCrosshair = gHUD.AddUnsearchableHudIconToList( *tex ); --> it is resulting in nothing displayed. I think I have to deal with szTextureFile but I don't know what to do exactly.
