How to Use Custom Crosshairs in Roblox (2026 Guide)

10 min read Updated: December 2026

Many popular Roblox games like Da Hood, Counter Blox, Arsenal, and Phantom Forces allow you to customize your crosshair using Decal IDs. In this comprehensive guide, you'll learn how to find, apply, and optimize custom crosshairs for better aim in Roblox shooter games.

What are Decal IDs?

Decal IDs are unique numeric codes that identify images uploaded to the Roblox platform. When you enter a Decal ID in a game's settings, the game downloads that image and displays it as your crosshair or cursor.

Example: The Decal ID 240080506 is a simple green dot crosshair. You copy this number and paste it into your game's crosshair settings.

How Decal IDs Work

  • Each image on Roblox has a unique numeric ID
  • Games can load images using these IDs
  • The crosshair appears at your screen center
  • IDs are permanent unless the image is deleted

Da Hood Crosshair Setup

Da Hood is one of the most popular Roblox games that supports custom crosshairs. Changing your crosshair can significantly improve your aim in shootouts.

1

Find a Crosshair Decal ID

Browse our Roblox crosshair library or use a Decal ID from the list below. Copy the numeric code.

2

Open Da Hood Settings

Launch Da Hood and tap the Settings (gear) icon at the bottom left of your screen.

3

Find Cursor ID Option

Scroll down until you see the text box that says "Enter a valid Image-ID" or "Cursor ID".

4

Paste and Apply

Paste your Decal ID into the box and hit Change. Your new crosshair will appear immediately!

Pro Tip: Choose crosshairs with high contrast colors like cyan or green that stand out on Da Hood's dark environments.

Counter Blox Crosshair Setup

Counter Blox offers advanced crosshair customization similar to CS2, with both built-in settings and custom Decal ID support.

Using the Built-in Crosshair Editor

1

Open Crosshair Menu

Press the apostrophe key (') on your keyboard to open the crosshair customization menu.

2

Customize Settings

Adjust these settings to match your preferences:

  • Thickness (0-10): Width of crosshair lines
  • Transparency (0-10): How see-through the crosshair is
  • Spread (0-10): Gap between crosshair lines
  • Color: RGB values or preset colors
  • Dot: Enable center dot for precision
3

Use Custom Decal (Optional)

To use a custom image, enter a Decal ID in the "Decal" input field within the crosshair menu.

Recommended Settings: Enable the Dot option for a steady and accurate aim. Set Thickness to 1-2 and Spread to 2-3 for a clean, minimal crosshair.

Arsenal Crosshair Settings

Arsenal lets you customize crosshair color and thickness through its in-game settings.

1

Open Settings

Look for the crosshair icon in the menu at the top right corner of your screen.

2

Choose Display Settings

At the main screen, select Display and then Settings.

3

Select Crosshair Color

Choose a color that doesn't frequently appear on maps. Good choices include:

  • Bright Green: Stands out on most maps
  • Pink/Magenta: High visibility
  • Black: Best for most situations (except Halloween/Christmas events)
  • Cyan: Great all-around choice
Note: During October-December events, maps often have black skies. Switch to a lighter color during these seasonal events.

Arsenal Sensitivity Tips

For optimal aim in Arsenal:

  • Start with 0.1-0.3 Roblox sensitivity for medium DPI (800-1200)
  • Keep your DPI consistent between sessions
  • Use a mousepad with enough space for arm movements

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Decal ID Not Working

If your Decal ID doesn't work:

  • Make sure you're entering only the numeric ID without extra characters
  • The image may have been deleted from Roblox - try a different ID
  • Some games only accept specific image formats or sizes
  • Try refreshing the game or rejoining the server

Crosshair Appears Off-Center

If your crosshair isn't centered:

  • The original image may not be properly centered
  • Try a different Decal ID from our library
  • Check if the game has a position adjustment option

Crosshair Too Large or Small

If the size isn't right:

  • Each game scales crosshairs differently
  • Look for size/scale settings in the game menu
  • Try crosshairs designed specifically for that game
