Oh, boy.

Screenshot cz_hr060006.jpg: That bit of architecture I'm aiming the Scout at is 16 Half-Life map units wide. My position is 800 HLMUs away and centered on the axis. Math says it's 20 mrads wide from that point. Having established that dimension, I redrew the entire reticle to scale to within a pixel of perfect.

Screenshot cz_hr060007.jpg: That bit next to the ladder is 8 HLMUs wide, it's 800 HLMUs away, so that's a confirmable 10 mrads. I had to fudge the dots a tiny bit, but not too much.

Screenshot cz_hr060008.jpg: The inner diameter of the Vortex reticle is 62 moa. Aiming at the 16 HLMU bit from 887 HLMUs away is the best I can math up, and it fits.

Screenshot cz_hr060009.jpg: I found a graphic saying the inner diameter of the outer ring of the reticle for the AUG is 150 mils. I took that to mean mrads, and what you see here is a 48 HLMU wide crate 320 HLMUs away. Having that dimension established, the only other thing that graphic said is the outer diameter of the inner ring (donut of death) is 12 mrads wide, so I mathed that up, and I drew the inner diameter of the inner ring that it should match the height of an average human 300m away, but there isn't a 300m sightline anywhere in any Half-Life map that I know of, so I'll settle for 'close enough' there.

I have a Schmidt & Bender P4LF on the G3SG-1 that's twice the correct scale, but I'm leaving it like that 'cause I like the detail. The CMR2 I have on the SG-550 is about three and a half times too large, but I also think it's too pretty to squish.

And that's me having a blast modding reticles in Counter-Strike: Condition Zero!

Edit: FINE! STOP YELLING AT ME! I took a crack at a correctly scaled CMR2. I don't hate it.
