Is there a better targeting addon than RVMOD_Targets?

I'm hoping for something better looking than the 5 options it comes with at least. Maybe there are more Templates out there? I've seen some people with some really nicely set up UIs on here and some seem to have some more targeter options available.

You could try Target Ring. Puts a colored ring around each of your targets.

I do like the look of TargetRing more, but after playing with it for a little bit, it doesn't seem to handle the math of the player moving around very well. It zooms in and out on the target with distance and slides up and down.

Default red for hostile, green for friendly. Ofcourse may need adjsutments of scale, x/y attachement etc.
/targetring

If you got friend good with graphics, you can exchange targetring.dds with anything better that suits your needs.

Bottom part is Effigy unit frame (HUD).

This looks a lot better, thanks. At some point I'm going to have to dive into Effigy, but it seems fairly complicated and there don't appear to be any good introductions to it anywhere.

Lot thx for this. I started to use it+rvmods and find easier to check targets position in crowded zones.
