CrosshairY draws a persistent, click-through crosshair over any game or app. No injection. No drivers. Just a window.
Most overlay tools want an installer, an account, and a corner of your taskbar. CrosshairY wants none of it. It's a single transparent window that sits above everything, ignores your clicks, and disappears from view the moment you ask it to.
Built with C# WPF on .NET 8 and released under MIT - the entire source is public. Read it, fork it, build it yourself with one build.bat.
It's free, it stays free, and it ships with one promise: a perfect user experience. No ads, no upsells, no "pro version" hiding behind a paywall.
Dot, Ring, Sniper, X Cross, Chevrons, T-Shape and more. Try every one of them in the Lab below.
8 swatches with instant preview, plus a free hex input for any color your monitor can produce.
Outline toggle with 1-5 thickness and a center-gap slider from 0 to 20 so your aim point stays clean.
Scale from 50% to 200%, fade from 10% to 100%. Big and bold or barely there - your call.
One keypress hides the overlay from OBS, Discord screenshare and clips. Your screen keeps it; the capture doesn't.
Save, load and overwrite configs as plain .json. Drop a friend's file in the folder, hit reload, done.
Your last config applies itself on launch. Open the .exe and you're already dialed in.
Global keys for proof mode and profile cycling. Switch setups mid-match without ever opening the UI.
No taskbar icon, borderless, fully click-through. It runs silently and never gets in the way.
A working replica of the app's customizer - same templates, same controls, same look. What you build here is what you get in-game.
Same controls ship in the app, where profiles save as plain .json under %APPDATA%\CrosshairY. Get the real thing ↗
A single keypress flags the overlay window with WDA_EXCLUDEFROMCAPTURE, so capture software simply can't see it. Press again to bring it back. The hotkey is yours to configure.
Grab the .exe, run it, aim. No installer, no account, no nags - and if you ever delete the file, it's gone like it was never there.
Download CrosshairY.exe from the latest GitHub release. It's a single self-contained file.
No install wizard. If Windows asks, you may need the free .NET 8 Desktop Runtime from Microsoft.
Pick a template, dial your color and gap, save it as a profile. It auto-loads next launch.
No. CrosshairY draws on your screen the way a sticky note on your monitor would - it never reads, writes or injects into any game process. No drivers, no hooks into games, just a transparent window.
Because it's open source under MIT. The full code is on GitHub for anyone to audit, fork or build themselves with one build.bat.
As plain .json files in %APPDATA%\CrosshairY\Configs. Share a file with a friend, they drop it in their folder, hit reload, and they're running your exact setup.
