1. There's something called XHAIRS, a ZDoom lump. More info here:
http://zdoom.org/wiki/Crosshair#Creating_your_own_crosshairs
http://zdoom.org/wiki/XHAIRS
2. There's a site called Realm667 to get those. You can also get custom weapons on /idgames as well.
3. What I use and most modders is something called SLADE 3.

Make sure to get the latest Microsoft C++ otherwise it won't run.

Still kinda confused about the XHAIRS thing


It's easy kinda.

Example:

1. SCOPE1
2. SCOPE2
And so on...

That's not enough. You also need to make a crosshair graphic for the lump. Once made, right click and click on "text" on the "view as" option.
Graphic name:
XHAIRB1-99 (Big)
XHAIRS1-99 (Small)

Graphic:


I think you do need to leave the black background for the transparency. The white, It may be for the color based off of how much health you have.
