WeaponSights Zoom
by
Gunter Severloh
Description:
When you look down the Iron sights of any infantry weapon in vanilla Arma 3 some
of the sites are very small, making it challenging to hit anything, so ingame you have to press your zoom button (if you want) which brings the sites closer.
Just to note this is an old addon i put together with some help a few yrs ago, i just decided to make it available for my favorite community as i thought i should share something i wont play without!
What does this addon do?
What this addon does is it will automatically zoom your iron sights & attachments sights which eliminate the need for you to have to press your zoom button freeing up the button for other things.
What games/mods does this works for?
- Vanilla Arma 3
- Marksman DLC
- Apex
- CUP_Weapons - (there are a few that wont zoom)
- May work for some added/modded weapons but they need to be tested.
The weapons this works for includes the following:
- Rifles
- Semi-Rifles
- Assault Rifles
- Submachine guns
- Machine guns
- Pistols
- Arma 3/Apex/Marksman DLC's weapon attachments

In some cases, such feature may not be desirable, I would not use it
BI's free-to-play Project Argo has automatic max-zoom on most of the sights (other than variable zoom scopes). Being used to having to zoom, I found it a smidge awkward at first, but it really is a kinda nice feature.
As for me in Arma, I use a big boatload of weapon addons, some of which may or may not work with this. For campaigns though, I stick with vanilla and official DLC, so I could certainly see the benefit in using this then.
this will reduce my awareness in combat...
