How to enable console in CS2

First things first, let's get that console window up and running:

  1. Fire up CS2 and hit the settings button.
  2. Look for the "Game" tab and click it.
  3. Find the option for "Developer Console" and turn it on.
  4. All set? Now press the (~) or (`) key on your keyboard to open the console.

This key is right between the TAB and ESC keys, so it’s easy to find.

How to create an autoexec config file

For those who like to get technical, an autoexec config file can make your life a lot easier. It automatically runs your favorite console commands every time you start CS2. Here’s how you do it:

  1. Right-click on CS2 in your Steam Library and pick "Manage" > "Browse Local Files."
  2. Head over to "Game" > "CSGO" > "CFG."
  3. Right-click in an empty space, select "New" > "Text Document," and name it "autoexec.cfg."
  4. Open this new file with Notepad and drop in the console commands you love.
  5. Go back to CS2 in your Steam Library, click "Properties" > "General" tab, and type "+exec autoexec.cfg" in the "Launch Options."

Now, every time you start CS2, it’ll remember your settings.

What is the console command for CS2 wallhack?

Ever wondered how to see your enemies through walls in CS2, like some kind of superpower? Well, there's a trick for that, but keep in mind it's only for practice. The magic spell is r_drawOtherModels 2. However, you can't use this in regular matches because it needs cheats to be on, which only works on training servers or when you're playing against bots.

Here's the lowdown:

  1. Activate Console: Hit the ~ key to open up the console. If it doesn't pop up, make sure it's enabled in your CS2 settings.
  2. Enable Cheats: Type in sv_cheats 1 to let the game know you're about to bend some rules.
  3. See Through Walls: Enter r_drawOtherModels 2 and suddenly, you can see everyone, everywhere. Remember, this is just for practice or fun games with bots, not for competitive play.

How do you add money on CS2?

Want to feel like the richest player in CS2 without actually breaking the bank? Here’s how you can give yourself all the money you could ever want in the game. First up, you'll need to open the console by hitting the ~ key.

Here's how to make that dream a reality, at least for your practice sessions:

  1. Open the Console: Press the ~ key to bring up the console window.
  2. Turn on Cheat Mode: Type sv_cheats 1 and hit enter. This is your key to unlocking all sorts of game tweaks.
  3. Infinite Cash: Input mp_maxmoney 99999 followed by mp_startmoney 99999 to max out your funds. The highest you can go is 99999, which is more than enough for all your in-game needs.
  4. Shop Anywhere: Don't forget mp_buytime 60000 and mp_buy_anywhere 1. Now you can buy weapons and gear wherever you fancy on the map, anytime you want.

It's important to remember that these commands are intended for personal improvement and exploration within the game's practice mode. They are tools designed to assist in learning and refining game strategies, not for use in competitive settings where fairness and integrity are paramount.
