• Fire up UEd.
• Open the crosshairs.utx (not sure about real filename! @work, so I can't take a look)
• Export the crosshair you want
• Open the DDS file you just exported in PhotoShop (you need to have the DDS plugin, can d/l it @ nVidia's HP) or any other app that can read DDS files
• (optional) tweak the graphic as you wish
• Save as .bmp (or as .ico if your gfx-app supports it
• if you saved as .bmp convert it with an icon-editor to .ico
• set the .ico file as mousepointer

Done

just create a 32x32 image gif or bmp and draw the triad like crosshair.
then use microangelo to convert it to a cursor.

the images from the crosshair.utx get too distorted when you resize em

fanx alot bro .

only one prob,i dont know how to use photoshop

i dont wanna resize.

want the exact same thing.

but this is a bit of a custom crosshair.

there is no default triad 2 in flak color.

u have to change the colors in weapos to get it.

will it still be there?

Nope.
The x-hair is there in b/w only.
Have to re-color it manually.

OR:
hold it against a (very) dark corner in a map, hit "screenshot" and cut it out

exactly what i did

unfortunately,its not easy to cut it out in proper shape,ill cut extra/less by mistake.
