CS2 Crosshair Generator: Create your own crosshair

The fastest way is through the console: enable the developer console under Settings → Game, open it with the key below Esc, paste the copied command block with Ctrl+V and press Enter. Each line is a separate short command, so it stays within CS2’s character limit per input—one paste is enough. Alternatively, use “Share” to copy the CS2 share code and paste it into the in-game settings. “Open in game” launches CS2 through Steam with your crosshair as a launch command. This works reliably if CS2 isn’t already running; whether it takes effect immediately during a match depends on your Steam version.

Click “Import config” in the generator, paste the share code and click “Apply”. The generator recognizes the code automatically, displays the crosshair in the preview and adds the matching commands to the “Console commands” block. Click “Copy” to put them on your clipboard. It works the other way too: paste a command block and use “Share” to copy it as a share code.

Old-format share codes (CSGO-xxxxx-…) and commands like cl_crosshairsize and cl_crosshairthickness have no longer worked since the update. Length, gap and thickness are now measured in actual pixels, and codes start with CS. Paste your old code or command block under “Import config”: the generator converts it to the new values (assuming 1080p) and shows a note below the preview so you can check the result. New commands such as cl_crosshair_length, cl_crosshair_gap and cl_crosshaircolor_r/g/b/a only work in the current version of CS2, not in CS:GO.

Under “Popular crosshair types”, click “Apply” on the “Dot” preset, or select the “Dot Only (6)” style in the generator. Adjust the dot’s size using thickness, then set its color, alpha and outline. After that, copy the commands or share code as usual.

Click “Share” to copy either a link containing your complete settings in the URL or a real CS2 share code you can paste directly into the game. When you reopen the link or send it to friends, the generator automatically loads that exact configuration. The “.cfg” button also saves the command block as a file.

Choose Dust II, Mirage, Inferno, Nuke, Overpass, Ancient, Anubis or Vertigo as the background, and set your resolution to 16:9, 4:3 or a custom width and height. Zoom ranges from 1× to 8×; at 1×, you see the crosshair at its actual size relative to the screen. Use sniper view to check the scope. The preview shows the crosshair at rest, not how dynamic styles spread while moving or firing.

A small, static crosshair with a narrow gap barely obstructs your view and is popular with many experienced players. If you prefer to see exactly where your crosshair is at a glance, a slightly larger size and a bold outline may work better.

The generator runs right in your browser. You don’t need an account, a Mod or a program running in the background—just a console command, a share code or a .cfg file at the end.
