Quick Install

Download the latest build from the GitHub Releases page.

Installer

Use the installer for the normal Start Menu experience:

  • LightCrosshair-Setup-1.7.1.exe SHA256: 90DAFF7D58E69FB06BD2E1BF347CE2FFC5E2B9C467049C24432E5CCC8C2E73D8

Portable ZIP

Use the portable ZIP if you want to extract and run the app from a folder you control:

  • LightCrosshair-v1.7.1-x64.zip SHA256: A7F835260A472B66AFDB970A0406ABCC998BDBC79879BFD082FD2212CE8242EC
  • LightCrosshair-v1.7.1-ARM64.zip SHA256: 23AA5A6222FB58335121ADF863E547568610A1DFEC0F17ADFF27B5AEAAF6A165

Package Managers

WinGet package updates may lag behind GitHub Releases. When available, this may install the latest approved package version, not necessarily v1.7.1:

winget install --id PrimeBuild.LightCrosshair --exact

The Chocolatey package update for 1.7.1 is prepared and will be available after Chocolatey Community moderation.

Quick Start

  1. Launch LightCrosshair from the Start Menu or run LightCrosshair.exe from the portable folder.
  2. Open Settings with Alt + L or the tray icon.
  3. Customize the crosshair shape, size, gap, color, opacity, and outline.
  4. Save profiles for different games or visibility needs.
  5. Enable the performance overlay only when you need it.

Default Hotkeys

HotkeyAction
Alt + XToggle crosshair visibility
Alt + CNext profile
Alt + VPrevious profile
Alt + LToggle Settings window

Features

  • Custom crosshair builder with shape, size, thickness, gap, color, opacity, and outline controls.
  • Profile workflow for switching quickly between games or setups.
  • Visibility presets for high-contrast crosshairs.
  • Optional performance overlay with Off, Minimal, and Detailed modes.
  • Frame Cap Assistant for target-FPS guidance.
  • Supported NVIDIA per-app profile controls and AMD-related display/color paths.
  • Multi-monitor and DPI-aware overlay behavior.
  • Non-injected design with no game hooks.

What's New in v1.7.1

  • Fixed NVIDIA FPS cap profile binding so supported per-app cap controls target the selected application profile.
  • Added NVIDIA profile audit information before applying supported per-app settings.
  • Added NVIDIA Low Latency Off/On and VSync per-app controls.
  • Added read-only NVIDIA G-SYNC and Low Latency CPL state display.
  • Kept safety boundaries: no global NVIDIA profile writes, no raw setting editor, no DLSS writes, no G-SYNC writes, and the app remains asInvoker.

Requirements

  • Windows 10 or Windows 11.
  • .NET 8 Windows Desktop Runtime for framework-dependent builds.
  • Borderless windowed or windowed game mode is recommended for overlay visibility.

Limitations & Safety

  • LightCrosshair does not inject into games and does not use game hooks.
  • Exclusive fullscreen can hide normal overlays; use borderless windowed or windowed mode when possible.
  • Frame Cap Assistant provides guidance only and does not enforce a real FPS cap.
  • Frame pacing diagnostics use conservative heuristics, ETW-style present telemetry analysis, and optional RTSS fallback paths; PresentMon integration remains a future target and is not implemented as a live runtime backend.
  • Frame-generation and DLSS runtime control are not implemented.
  • NVIDIA profile writes are per-app only where supported; LightCrosshair does not write global NVIDIA profiles.
  • Some games or anti-cheat systems may block overlays or behave differently.
