Well, not every single pole would have them. Most would, especially in a neighborhood or other populated areas light downtown, but not all. A second version with the transformers added would be sufficient.

As for the model, it does look pretty nice. Although those cylinders on the top should be using a less sides. Six sides would be good enough, heck, there're small enough that you could probably get away with cubes.

In order from left to right: Meh(too large and solid), Nope(too ovaly), Great(Simple, and feels natural), Stock, Great(minimalistic and effective, I like this one a lot), Decent(too large/thick but still nice), Very Meh(doesn't feel like a reticule).

Nice job overall.

Third from the left and third from the right. Maybe I'm a little biased though because those two are very similar to my main reticules I used in my Unreal Tournament days :)

I like the systle of the Secoond from the right, one. but its a bbit blocky and could do with being made thinnner. But I love the shape.

I dont know much about editing the HUD are you limited to one reticule, an can you have different ones for different weapons?

Thanks for the comments guys, more reticules coming. :)
@Slime: I have found a possible work around to make that happen. If I get it working, I'll fill you guys in.

I'm guessing it's the same workaround I thought of. Fake reticules used as weapon icons. If that's the idea, no reason why it shouldn't work.

Looks like 3 and 5 were the most liked. :) Thank you all for the comments!
I made some more since then. Three and five are still in the same places. :wink:
Note that 1 and 2, from the left, were inspired from SWRC and Halo CE, respectively.

the two to the right the stock look great! The X shape is nice, and I like the plus. The last one w/ the X inside circles is a bit strange, especially since they wont move out with the guns recoil (sigh, SWBF2 limitations.)

My favorite is the second from the left. It is simple yet elegant.
