This Project was made to recreate aiming down sights in third person and make gunplay more immersive. The dynamic crosshair simulate recoil, gun sway and bounce while walking. It includes seven "sight styles" to fit your gun or you can easily add your own textures.

Please Note:
Engine Version 4.27 required
This project is centered around the dynamic crosshairs. Do not expect a full-grown third person shooter template. However you could use this as a base to build one. Everything is commented in Detail but some experience in blueprint scripting / Unreal Engine is required if you want to make changes or implement this into another project.
