A dot with custom position on screen

So if you know about 3rd-person shooters, some of them don't have a cross and you have to predict where you shoot. Some people use a transparent tape with a marker dot to aim and I do that too, its funny I know.

So I was looking possible for some code or program that I could run to adjust the dot automatically when the program is run and it would over-ride in the game.

You can build a small Lego construction to hold a laser pointer and position it such that it marks the "aiming point" on your screen.

With a slightly more complex set-up you can also make a Blutooth-controllable one, so you can even adjust the position directly with your computer.

I remember i did one a long time ago as a cheat to counterstrike for sniper weapons that did not display cross when not in scope mode.

Heres how i did:

Download free version of game maker, set the room to be very few pixels, set stayontop to true, disable windows border and set background to some strong color. Make a object and in creation code set window x position to half screen width and y to half height.

If you are on Linux, try something like:

echo -e "+" |osd_cat -p middle -A center -d 0 -f '-*-helvetica-*-r-*-*-26-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' -O 1 -c '#f00' -o -70 -i 1

or

echo -e "+" |osd_cat -p middle -A center -d 0 -f '-*-helvetica-*-r-*-*-11-*-*-*-*-*-*-*' -O 1 -c '#0f0' -o -32 -i 1

Type osd_cat --help for a list of options.
