Gfycat of the cursor in action

An AHK script that adds an overlay cursor for the game Helldivers.

There is a "Crosshair Always Visible" setting, but all it adds is a blurry grey blob that is still very difficult to see.

With this AHK script, it will render the crosshair.png image file on your cursor when the Helldivers window is active, allowing you to aim better.

How To Use

1. If you do not have AHK installed,
   1. You can choose to trust me and download the compiled binaries in Releases.
   2. Or you can install AHK today!
2. If you have AHK installed,
   1. Download the code base as a ZIP file.
   2. Unzip the archive to where you want it to be.
3. Edit the crosshair.png as you see fit.
   1. Protip, the white color (#fff) will be rendered as transparent!
   2. Please keep the image size as 64 pixels square.
4. Double click on helldivers_cursor.ahk (or helldivers_cursor.exe, if you download the compiled binaries).
5. Enjoy!

Additional Info

• The cursor overlay updates itself every 10 milliseconds. It might appear laggy at times, but thats the best AHK could do.
• If something else is putting a heavy load on the CPU, the cursor might be even more laggy.
• The cursor hides itself when you Alt+Tab to another window. It will only show itself on Helldivers window.
