What each setting does
- Style — 4 (static) is the pro default; the crosshair shape doesn't change with movement or fire spread.
- Size — line length in pixels. Pros run small (1–3) for visibility.
- Gap — distance between lines and centre. Negative values pull lines closer; -2 to -3 is typical.
- Thickness — line weight. 0.5–1 is the standard band.
- Outline — black outline around lines for contrast against bright textures (sand, sky).
- Alpha — opacity. 200–255 is the readable range; below 150 fades against light backgrounds.
- Dot — adds a single centre pixel. Some prefer it for precise long-range tap shooting.
- T-style — removes the top line. Less clutter at the cost of a vertical reference.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I use the crosshair?
Click 'Copy console commands' to copy a one-line command bundle. Paste it into the in-game console (~) and press Enter. The crosshair updates instantly. To make it permanent, paste the same line into autoexec.cfg in your CS2 cfg folder.
What's the difference between style 4 and style 5?
Style 4 is a fully static crosshair — no movement spread, no firing dispersion. Style 5 (Classic Static) is the same shape but the size auto-scales with your weapon's accuracy. Most pros use style 4 because what you see is exactly where the next bullet goes.
Why do pros use such small crosshairs?
A small crosshair (size 1–3, gap -3 to -2) maximises target visibility — your enemy's head isn't covered by your own crosshair. The trade-off is harder spray-control reads at distance, but pros compensate with practiced spray patterns.
What is the 'T-style' crosshair?
T-style removes the top vertical line, leaving only left, right, and bottom. The reasoning: the top line obscures targets at long range, while the bottom line still gives a precise alignment reference. Used by some pros who like a less cluttered HUD.
