Fortnite
✔ Works in Windowed and Windowed Fullscreen mode
❌ Doesn't work in Fullscreen mode

Rust

  • Works in Windowed Fullscreen mode
  • Doesn't work in Fullscreen mode

Halo: The Master Chief Collection

  • Works Borderless
  • Works Windowed
  • Doesn't work Fullscreen

Metro Exodus Gold Edition

  • It doesn't work under any circumstances

Tom Clancy's The Division 2

  • Works in Windowed Fullscreen mode

  • Doesn't work in Fullscreen mode

Deceit

Windows 10

  • Works in Windowed mode
  • Doesn't work in Fullscreen mode

Solution (Windows-only)

Install AutoHotKey and run this script with it (save it as script.ahk and double-click it):

space::Winset, Alwaysontop, , CrossOver

Once in-game, pressing space should put the crosshair over the screen, even in fullscreen mode.

I optimistically presume this should work for any fullscreen game on Windows where the overlay doesn't normally stay on top.

AutoHotKey scripts can be compiled to a 0.5mb executable, so it might be worth considering including such a program in the Windows release.

Thanks @GirkovArpa, I'll make a note of the AHK workaround.

Empyrion: Galactic Survival

Works in windowed mode
Untested full screen

Destiny 2

Works great in full screen, makes it way easier to line up those sniper shots

Apex Legends

  • Works in windowed mode with border/borderless
  • Doesn't works in fullscreen mode even using AHK

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019) a.k.a. "Warzone"

  • Works fine in windowed borderless
  • Doesn't work in fullscreen (even with tricks ; when you can see the crosshair the game is frozen as if you're tabbed out)

Tried it in multiplayer (main reason for getting it) and battle royale mode.

Whether or not I get banned for this, we'll see. But considering actual cheaters with Engine Owning or the like keep their accounts seemingly forever without repercussions, I doubt anything's gonna happen. If something does happen I'll edit this with a warning to not use it for this game.

Nah @Hennricko you won't get banned for this, it doesn't hook into any part of the game and devs have never gone after these simple image-display apps. Just don't use it in a tournament!

Thanks for the info!

Works in Fullscreen mode with ahk script - Tested in MM, trusted mode, a few games.

Made my own crosshair since at 1440p the current crosshairs get quite blurry due to their small standard size. (I don't usually play at this resolution, don't yell). Currently on a Gigabyte monitor with these fancy draw-your-own-x-hair (better than any others I guarantee you), so I've had a hard time finding the will to upgrade it since I'd lose my perfect (for me) 1.6 crosshair, which is why I found this wonderful repo! Thank you for all your hard work so far! I'll upload my basic crosshair that is larger than the defaults, in case there's a hardcore "old-school" Counter-Strike static crosshair fan out there, until svg support is here:

1.3-1.6-green high-res

It's not by any means perfect or fancy, but at only 250x250 pixels it works great (64x64 is the default I think), I set the size in CrossOver to 50 for a non-blurry good size for me (you do you). Uneven numbers = higher risk of blur? (correct me if I'm wrong).

edit: removed svg suggestion wall of text, SVG support (vector) is being worked on/in the pipe, see reply below

(PS I bound my ahk script to "Home" instead of "space", since it's actually a toggle (might be my version of AHK, á the latest(?)), since space=jump natively, it would toggle it on and off a lot. To change it, just replace the word 'space' with 'Home' in the script. Google for other keys to use, they may have specific names in AHK; I just happen to not have anything else set to Home for now)

PPS. If started as administrator, drag-n-dropping your own crosshair does not work. Found this out the slow way ^^ Also sorry for the overkill comment that became somewhat off-topic

@rknDA1337 Working on it, tracking in #121

Escape from Tarkov

No Longer Works anymore, game detects it and ejects you from the game.
Can reconnect with CrossOver disabled.

Wooow, really?? @Killer-931 do you know if you had any Crosshair actions enabled? (hide-on-ads, tilting, follow-mouse)

Yes; did the same for me! started throwing me out of the game about three days back, with crossover enabled; once disabled, it allowed me back in to the game. When it kicks you, the screen says that the game has detected crosshair application.

It's a sad day :(
This is officially the first game to actively block CrossOver so I can only expect that more games will follow.

Thanks for flagging @Killer-931, @Deiecee

Left 4 Dead 2.

  • Works in Windowed and Windowed Fullscreen.
  • Doesn't work in Fullscreen.

Fullscreen may not actually work on the most up-to-date Source Engine (such as CS:GO, L4D2 and TF2), this is only my theory.

Crossover doesn't work with fullscreen apps, see #64.

Thanks for posting these results!

Banned for using Crossover? I think that's a first one, right?

@crisedfx Can you tell us more about your ban?

Congratulations! 🥇
You are officially the first person to be banned from any game for using CrossOver
I'm sorry you were banned, thank you for reporting it here. Maybe email them and send them to this thread?

Hey, I got in contact with them via a ticket to ask why I got banned from Sea of Thieves, to which they replied that I got banned for using third party software to gain an advantage. They did not specify anything in particular nor give me any other info as it was just a support agent responding, and closed the ticket afterwards. I am 100% certain they referred to CrossOver as it’s the only third party program I have installed (fresh PC). The ban is temporary though as I didn’t get banned for cheating/exploiting. That’s about all the info I have.
