As I understand it OFP red dot sight, like on the XM-177E2 is simply a transparent texture with a non-transparent dot on it (inside the scope), which would make it the same as a non-parallax compensating generic red dot sight. Which is kind of the whole point of this discussion.

Or have I missed something???

I guess so, I was discussing the real life thing, probably a misunderstanding about what I meant by "not centered".

Then someone tags along, probably not knowing about parallax compensation, suddenly the next kicks in, talking about the sighting system already in OFP (or so I guess?)

And all the time, I was talking about a real life Aimpoint, with parallax compensation.

Hmm...

You haven't missed anything... I was just wondering if he thought he made the OFP engine project the dot from infinity for his particular scope. Otherwise there would be an aiming problem.

(this reminds me of that Supressor argument... vacuum, suction, pressure... lol)

Girth? I'm not English, can someone tell me what girth is? Is it some sort of bug? Or some itchy irritation?
