# Valorant Crosshair Generator

> A Valorant crosshair generator lets you shape a crosshair outside the game and copy it in as a profile code. The settings that matter are colour, outlines, centre dot, and the length, thickness and offset of the inner lines. Most competitive players run a short, thin inner cross with outlines on and outer lines disabled, because anything larger covers the head at range.

## How to use it

1. Start from a preset, or build from the default.
2. Adjust colour, centre dot and the inner line length, thickness and offset.
3. Copy the code, then in game open Settings, Crosshair, Import Profile Code.

## What each setting does

Values are in Valorant's own units, which are roughly two screen pixels each at 1080p.

| Setting | Effect | Common value |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Inner line length | How long each of the four arms is | 4 to 6 |
| Inner line thickness | How heavy each arm is | 1 to 2 |
| Inner line offset | Gap between the centre and each arm | 0 to 3 |
| Centre dot | A square pip at the exact centre | Off, or size 1 to 2 |
| Outlines | Black border around every element | On |
| Outer lines | A second, further-out set of arms | Off for most players |
| Colour | Cyan and green read best on most maps | Cyan or green |

## Questions

### How do I import a crosshair code in Valorant?

Open Settings, go to the Crosshair tab, choose Import Profile Code, and paste. The game applies it to the profile you currently have selected, so switch profile first if you want to keep your existing one.

### What is the best crosshair in Valorant?

There is no single best one, but the pattern most professionals share is a short thin inner cross, outlines on, outer lines off, and no centre dot. It covers the least head area at range while still being visible against bright walls.

### Should I use a centre dot?

It helps with precise placement on flick-heavy agents and gets in the way when spraying. Try size 1 with a short cross - a large dot hides exactly the pixels you are trying to hit.

### What colour crosshair should I use?

Cyan and green are the common picks because almost nothing on Valorant's maps is those colours. White disappears against bright walls and red disappears against several agent abilities.

### Do outlines slow you down?

No. They cost nothing in performance and make the crosshair readable against light backgrounds, which is why nearly everyone leaves them on.

### What are outer lines for?

They show recoil and movement error as they expand. Most players disable them because the extra motion is distracting and the information is available from the spray pattern anyway.

### Does the crosshair affect my accuracy?

Only through visibility. Valorant does not change hit registration based on the crosshair - a smaller one simply lets you see the target you are aiming at.

### Can I use this for other games?

The preview is useful for judging any crosshair shape, but the profile code format is specific to Valorant and will not import anywhere else.
