Solutions & Anomalies

Solution

Native.

To change the size of the crosshairs, perform the following:

Open the console. ( ` tilde)
Type cg_crosshairscale 2500

Where 2500 is you can choose what you want. I find 2500 is good for me, you may want it smaller with TH.
Note that if you save anything in the options menu after this, it will revert the size, so do this once all your other options are settled.

Eyefinity / Surround Specific Solution

Mobster007 HUD fix:
I've created a custom HudLayout.res file that centers the HUD for Counter-Strike: Source!

I've uploaded my HUD to HL2Files! You can get it here: http://halflife2.filefront.com/file/CS_Source_TripleHead_HUD;85786

Who its for: This mod file is intended for TripleHead2Go users running a 3840x1024 resolution only! I say again, unless you are running 3840x1024 resolution, this is NOT FOR YOU.

What it does: I have modified the default hud at TripleHead resolutions to stay on the center screen; where the default HUD had almost everything pushed to the sides. This file only changes the positions of certain HUD elements, these elements are:
Health stat
Armor stat
Ammo
Money
Death notices
Radar
Hostage rescue zone icon
Buy zone icon
Bomb possesion icon
C4 defusal kit icon
Voicechat notifications
Scenario specific icon (hostage and planted bomb icons)

What it doesn't do:
The chat doesn't move. I haven't yet figured out how to move that yet. When I do I'll update.
After your dead, the text that tells you which team your on and how much money you have stays were it is. I haven't figured out how to move this yet. When I do I'll update.

Bugs: Doesn't work well with the lower Triplehead resolutions. Sorry : (
