This is now released by Stewie as beta and is a first, indirect, result of the TT-patch development! It allows you to choose a different reticle depending on the weapon you use. READ THE README-file for installing!
I don't know if it would actually help anyone but it sure looks cool  .
Edit: update -> new version
Quote Stewie: I added a specific reticle for when you aim at a Purchase Terminal or Vehicle. Customizable in the INI of course. Also, the weapon chart (that appears at the top of the screen when you select a weapon) has customizable colors. Additionally, you can now select specific reticles for each vehicle. And finally, I have optimized the system into only four hooks, instead of about twelve, so there's much less conflicting between their actions.

Yes, it allows you to choose a different reticle per group of tanks and even per tank if you know how to choose the .ini - file.

I've had 2 people (out of my 20 or so beta testers) unable to load up the game when binkw32.dll is replaced. I'm not sure why, some kind of conflict with versions or other mods I'd guess.
Guess you make #3. 
PS: You actually cannot change the reticle per Vehicle in the INI file. I plan to change that when I make the full release. For now it's restricted to the Small/Medium/Large Tanks.
Small Tanks include: Humm-vee, MRLS, Buggy, Artillery, Sedan, Pickup, SSML, Recon Bike.
Medium Tanks include: GDI/Nod APC, Light Tank, Chameleon.
Heavy Tanks include: GDI Medium Tank, Mammoth Tank, Flame Tank, Stealth Tank.

Dude, that is insane!
There should definitely be a set standard for defaults for each weapon. Like make a list of all the recitals and have people vote on which weapons they think they would be best suited for.
But I think it would be better that instead of having a retical for each individual weapon, there should be a reticle for each weapon group (1-0). Like one retical for the machine gun group, one for the emission group, one for the laser group, one for the explosives group, ect. However, if not, it doesn't matter. This is still really cool.

We had more than 10 people from our clan test it and it works perfectly for everyone of them.

can you make it to where you can still use the original reticle for all your infrantry and tanks aswell?
your skills in your aim, not your crosshair.
plus the original reiticle is by FAR the best

Open the .ini - file. You can customize it and choose to use the original one for some weapons.

I get to the rectangle red renegade box then a windows error message pops up =(.
The Weapon Presets are pretty easy to figure out. For example: Weapon_Pistol_Player.. obviously the Pistol.
