How to make a circle crosshair in VALORANT

Build or edit a circle crosshair with compact line layers, then compare your settings with ready-to-copy circle codes.

Quick answer

This guide is for changing the settings yourself. A circle is an approximation built from short, closed line layers: keep the horizontal and vertical values balanced, close the offset, and preview at normal scale because a ring that looks perfect when enlarged may look square in game.

Build the ring from balanced lines

Use equal horizontal and vertical lengths so the shape remains symmetrical. Short lines with a closed offset create the most convincing small ring.

  • Match horizontal and vertical length.
  • Keep the center offset low.
  • Use moderate thickness.

Decide whether to keep a center dot

A dot makes the exact middle obvious but fills the hollow center. Turn it off when you want the target to remain visible through the ring.

  • Dot on: stronger center reference.
  • Dot off: cleaner hollow center.
  • Avoid oversized outlines.

Compare with a verified code

Circle shapes are sensitive to resolution and scale. Paste a working code into the AimCodes preview and compare it with your generated version on the same map.

  • Preview at normal scale.
  • Check a distant target.
  • Copy only after the ring stays recognizable.

Common questions

Can VALORANT make a perfect circle crosshair?

The settings create a pixel-style approximation rather than a mathematically smooth circle.

Should a circle crosshair use a dot?

Use a dot for a stronger center or turn it off to keep the ring hollow.
