Features like Radeon™ ReLive, Radeon™ Chill, Radeon™ WattMan, and Radeon™ Game Advisor can easily be adjusted from within this overlay panel. This non-intrusive panel that appears on the right of the screen provides gamers with one-click access to a multitude of settings for their Radeon graphics card. Radeon™ Overlay can easily be opened inside their game by using the hotkey, Alt-R, to bring up the overlay panel. Radeon™ Overlay provides gamers the choice to rapidly make graphics changes on-the-fly without leaving the game, so they can quickly get back to playing their favorite title. I know the people that believe in its use can argue passionately in its defense, so I’d love to hear your opinions on crosshair overlays via external methods.Users know how frustrating it can be to play a game, see something they want to adjust, and be forced to alt-tab or exit out to change their settings in the control panel. But I don’t think the lack of looming consequences lessens the fact that this is, no matter how miniscule or irrelevant (and it is, to be sure, such a barely-over-the-line cheat), still an attempt to play unfairly. There is not an anti-cheat system on the planet that will catch that. Now obviously, if you stick a piece of tape on your monitor, no one is going to know. However if you can always track your center point, and you’re now able to hip fire with greater accuracy without the scope/ADS, that feels like you are operating at an advantage beyond how other people may be playing. For instance, sometimes only the scope of a weapon provides that much pinpoint accuracy, meaning you’re balancing precision for the smaller field of view of a zoomed-in scope. But most games also have a brightness/contrast or mouse sensitivity slider in their settings, so I’d argue that adjusting those elements to personal preference falls within the game designer’s scope of what they wanted possible in their game (even if upping the contrast to see enemies in shadows is outside the spirit of the intention).īut if a game doesn’t provide you with a persistent “here is exactly where your bullet is aiming” reticle, it would be because the game designers chose not to include one for gameplay reasons. I can almost see it from that point of view. None of these methods are actually altering any game files, which leads people to argue that it isn’t cheating its no different from upping the contrast of your monitor to see in darker games, or using a fancy mouse with better precision to get an edge, they say.Īnd I understand that side of the argument. Or you can even just go super old-school, and stick a bit of tape or blue-tac on your monitor as an aiming device. Now, you can add a crosshair overlay to games with a third party app, or you can get some monitors with it as a built-in setting. On the cheating scale, it’s definitely one of the most benign cheats, (I’d argue it doesn’t even provide much of an advantage), but it still constitutes using an outside method to gain an upper hand over other players. Personally, I’d put this one in the cheating column.
