Product overview
Everything needed to build a clear aim point.
AimX combines a transparent always-on-top overlay with a focused desktop control panel for shaping, positioning, saving, and managing crosshairs.
Live Preview
Adjust the reticle and see the overlay update while you work, with a built-in preview in the settings window.
Saved Presets
Save named crosshairs locally, restore bundled styles, and move builds between machines with JSON import and export.
Play Controls
Use configurable hotkeys to toggle the overlay or open settings without breaking focus.
ADS Hold-to-Hide
Optionally hold a selected key or mouse button to hide the reticle, with adjustable hide and restore timing.
Local First
AimX keeps settings on your PC, uses locally bundled UI assets, and does not send telemetry to AimX servers.
Customization
Shape every visible detail.
Start with six built-in styles and refine the result with independent controls. Changes are validated before they reach the overlay and saved locally for the next launch.
- Cross, X, dot, circle, T-shape, and ring-X styles
- Color, opacity, size, thickness, gap, and rotation
- Optional center dot with its own size and color
- Optional outline with independent color and thickness
Saved presets
Keep the setups you trust.
Name and save custom crosshairs, switch between saved options, and restore bundled style presets when you want a clean starting point.
JSON import and export makes it practical to back up a reticle or share a configuration without creating an account.
Hotkeys and ADS
Keep control close.
Rebind the overlay toggle and settings shortcuts. AimX checks whether Windows accepted each shortcut and restores the previous valid binding if registration fails.
Optional ADS hold-to-hide clears the reticle while a selected key or mouse button is held. Independent hide and restore delays can be adjusted from 0 to 500 ms.
- Default toggle: Ctrl + Shift + X
- Default settings shortcut: Ctrl + Shift + S
- Default ADS input: Mouse2 / right mouse button
Precision positioning
Center it for your display.
X and Y offsets support fine adjustments for setups where the useful aim point is not exactly at the geometric center of the selected display.
- Separate horizontal and vertical offsets
- 0.1-pixel editor steps
- Rotation remains centered on the configured position
Displays and startup
Put AIMX where you play.
Select the monitor that should host the overlay. If it is disconnected, AimX temporarily falls back to the primary display and returns when the selected display is available again.
AimX lives in the system tray. Closing the settings window does not quit the app, and optional Windows startup launches it silently in the background after login.
Local-first operation
Your settings stay on your machine.
AimX does not send telemetry, analytics, crosshair settings, or ADS input events to AimX servers. Settings and onboarding state are stored locally under the application data directory.
The Steam build uses Steam to confirm launch and ownership. Website analytics and marketing cookies are not used.
