Why do you need to install config in csgo? What does this give? And how to use configs? We will try to tell you as much as possible.

Config is a list of console commands saved in a text file with the extension “.cfg”.

Why do you need to install config in csgo?

Such files are used to save game settings (sight, radar, binds, etc.), so that if the parameters change (for example, you decide to change the sight), you can return everything back with one command.

What does this give?

This makes it possible to change any game settings without fear, with full confidence that you can instantly return everything back. Plus, loading game parameters through such files greatly reduces the time required to enter commands. You may have hundreds of such config files. And you can switch between them with just one command, rather than registering each one separately.

Most professional csgo players post their configs. By downloading and installing this file, you can play with the same settings (sight, radar, binds) as Zeus or Scream (for example).

How to automatically download the config?

Option #1 (better because you can easily change startup files):

1. Steam -> Library -> Games
2. Right click on Counter-Strike Global Offensive -> Properties
3. Set launch parameters -> enter commands – console +exec "config name".cfg
4. Save, close

Option #2:

1. Rename the downloaded config file to cfg
2. Copy it to the game folder -> csgo -> cfg
3. If such a file already exists, replace it with a new one.

Config- this is a file in which your game settings are stored, such as: the size of the sight, its color, the scale of the radar and interface elements, hand model parameters, mouse sensitivity, binds for various buttons, aliases and much more.

Introduction

In this topic you can find answers to the following questions:

• Where is the config;
• How to save config in cs go;
• How to download the config;
• How to install the config;
• How to delete a config;
• Standard cs go config.

Where is the cs go config located?

First you need to know the location where CS:GO is installed.

By default, the game installation folder is located here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive

The surest way to find out where cs go was installed is:

1. Open STEAM library;
2. Right-click on Counter Strike: Global Offensive and select " Properties";
3. In the window that opens, go to the "tab" Local files";
4. Click on the " View local files.."

All configs (files with extension .cfg) are in the folder csgo/cfg .

Attention!

In the latest versions of STEAM, the storage location for settings (including configs) has changed. Now they can be found along the path:

Steam\userdata\your steamid\730\local\cfg\name of your config.cfg

For example, mine is stored here:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\69671579\730\local\cfg

If only one Steam account has always been used on your computer, then in the folder Steam\userdata\ there will be only one folder with numbers ( numbers = your steam_id). If you used some smurfs (fake accounts), or friends came to you and played using their accounts, there will be more folders.

To find out which one belongs to your account, use the site https://steamid.uk to determine your STEAM_ID. To do this, simply paste your nickname into the search box and click Enter.

And in the window that appears in the field Steam3: You will find familiar numbers.

The numbers highlighted in the screenshot above will be your steam_id. All that remains for you is to find a folder with a name made up of numbers that match your steam_id.

How to save config in cs go

If you created a config from scratch (or used someone else’s ready-made one), and during the game you made changes to it (for example, changed the size of the sight), and wanted to save these settings, then you need to open the console ~ and write a special console command there host_writeconfig and press Enter

For example:

host_writeconfig mycfg

Where mycfg this is the name of your config. Important, the name can only be in English and without spaces. And try not to make it long to make loading easier. After saving the config, it will be available in the folder steam\userdata\your steamid\730\local\cfg\name of your config.cfg

How to download the config

In order to load the config into CS:GO, open the console and write

exec name of your config.cfg

For example:

exec maxville.cfg

If you name the config config.cfg and put it in the folder, it will load automatically when you start the game.

How to install the config

If you want to play with someone else's config, move it to the folder at the address below:

Steam\userdata\your steamid\730\local\cfg\

Important! The cfg folder should contain files with the extension .cfg- and not archives, for example s1mple.zip or scream.rar

You decided to store your configs separately from the configs of PRO players:

1. Go to the config folder steam\userdata\your steamid\730\local\cfg\
2. Create a folder in it, for example, pro;
3. Transfer the config or configs (for example, s1mple.cfg) to a new folder steam\userdata\your steamid\730\local\cfg\pro
4. In the game, open the console and load the config from the new folder using the command: exec pro\s1mple.cfg

How to delete a config in cs go

To delete the config, just go to the folder steam\userdata\your steamid\730\local\cfg\ select the desired config with the left mouse button and delete it like any other file on the computer.

Standard cs go config

If it happens that you need to clear CS:GO to default settings so that there is a default config - just delete the cfg folder, in the folder steam\userdata\your steamid\730\local

Set up config for cs 1.6

Dear friends, in this long article I will tell you how to create and configure a config for cs 1.6. You will not need to think and look for where to download the config for cs 1.6, in which you can catch viruses. You can easily set up the config for yourself, because for each different server you will need to carefully configure the cfg for an accurate hit to the head, for less recoil, for accurate shooting. You need to approach the config competently and technically, and then your game with the new cfg will be smooth, clean, and fast.

First, let's look at what config(cfg) is. in Russian - config? This is a file with the extension (.cfg), located in the cstrike folder or if you have steam, then in the cstrike_russian folder, by default, when you start cs, a file is created there config.cfg it contains the settings necessary for the game.
Autoexec.cfg - this config is loaded when the game starts, and only after it the file is loaded config.cfg
Cofigs with a different name will have to be loaded with the exec command in the game console, for example, exec nick.cfg
exec- this means that the file needs to be launched
nick- name of the config
.cfg- this is a permission that must be specified

How to create a config for CS 1.6

You can edit configs with any text editor, for example, the standard Windows program - Notepad.

You can create your config in one of 3 ways:
1. Manually create a cfg file or copy the standard config.cfg and name the copy, for example, my.cfg - fill it with your values.

2. Set the necessary settings through the game menu and save them to a file by entering the following command into the console:
writecfg my

After this command, a my.cfg file with the settings you have installed will appear in the folder and you can later edit it via Notepad.

3. Using special programs.

In all 3 methods, a new cfg file with the specified name is created, and you can load such a file and apply your settings in the game by entering a simple command into the console:
exec my.cfg

You don't have to create a new config, just work with the standard cfg and customize it.

The most important config settings that should be changed in the config:

• hud_fastswitch - set the value to "1" so that switching weapons is instantaneous.
• cl_weather - set to "0" to disable the weather, which on some maps lowers your FPS.
• _cl_autowepswitch - set to your liking: “1” - the selected weapon immediately appears in your hands, “0” - it falls into the inventory and can be selected later.
• setinfo "_vgui_menus" - again, set it to your liking: "1" - when purchasing, a menu with pictures of weapons and ammunition will be displayed, with the ability to select with the mouse. If the value is “0”, we disable the graphical menu and in this case the purchasing and team selection menu will be displayed in the form of text, navigation through the menu is carried out by pressing the numbers on the keyboard (this type of menu is convenient for professionals who care about the speed of purchasing, and not the pictures in the menu ).
• _cl_minmodels - to increase FPS, it is recommended to set the value to "1", disabling detailed rendering of all player models.
• cl_dynamiccrosshair - It is recommended to immediately get used to the dynamic sight in order to control your shooting. Set the value to "1" and then when squatting and jumping your sight will expand, making it clear that the spread when shooting will be much greater.
• fps_max - set "101" as the maximum possible FPS value.
• cl_cmdrate is the rate at which packets per second are sent from your client to the server. The setting can take a value from 10 to 101. With a good Internet connection, it is recommended to set the maximum value to “101”.
• cl_updaterate - this is at what speed per second the server will request packets from the client. Accepted values ​​are from 10 to 102, so feel free to set “102”.
• cl_cmdbackup - if packet loss occurs (unstable connection to the server), then we need to resend commands from the client and it is this setting that is responsible for the number of commands that it constantly stores. For a smoother and more comfortable game, it is recommended to set the value to "4".
• cl_rate - the number of bytes per second that the client transmits to the server (value from 1000 to 20000). It is recommended to set the value to "20000". In view of the fact that when starting a new map this value is constantly lost, it will be useful to bind the command to some button and do not forget to press it when starting the map: bind "j" "cl_rate 20000"
• cl_lc - if the server has a setting sv_unlag "1", then she allows clients lag compensation. Set the value to "1" to enable lag compensation on your game client.
• cl_lw - the setting is responsible for calculating all kinds of effects, from animation to bullet holes. It is better to enable it by setting the value to "1". If you disable this setting, then lag compensation cl_lc can also be turned off.
• ex_interp is the number of seconds between each update between the client and server. The setting is responsible for the position of players during updates. The setting can take values ​​from 0.009 to 0.1, but it is recommended to set the value to "0" so that the game automatically sets the optimal value, which is 1 / cl_updaterate. Although you can strictly set the minimum value to “0.009”.

All commands for CONSOLE

Sound

In CS 1.6, as in other games, all settings are stored in a configuration file (config). With the help of this article you will know almost everything about the player’s configs, their correct settings in the CS:

Types of configs

The config is a regular text file, but it is customary to use the ".cfg" extension for it.

First of all, let's answer a simple question: " Where is the game config or where should I put the created config? ". Config files in Counter-Strike 1.6 are located in the folder:

• For Steam (English version): \game_folder\Steam\steamapps\account_name\counter-strike\cstrike
• For Steam (Russian version): \game_folder\Steam\steamapps\account_name\counter-strike\cstrike_russian
• For NoSteam: \game_folder\cstrike

In the screenshot on the right you can see the standard list of config files that are present in the game folder. We are only interested in 3 files highlighted in the red frame on the screen, and these are:

All other config files in the folder (joystick.cfg, listenserver.cfg, server.cfg, listip.cfg, etc.) either do not need editing or are responsible for setting up the creation of your own server, which is not the topic of this article.

How to create a config

You can edit configs with any text editor, for example, the standard Windows program - Notepad.

You can create your config in one of 3 ways:

1. Manually create a cfg file or copy the standard config.cfg and name the copy, for example, my.cfg - fill it with your values.
2. Set the necessary settings through the game menu and save them to a file by entering the following command into the console:
   writecfg my
   After this command, a my.cfg file with the settings you have installed will appear in the folder and you can later edit it via Notepad.
3. Using special programs.

In all 3 methods, a new cfg file with the specified name is created, and you can load such a file and apply your settings in the game by entering a simple command into the console:

Exec my.cfg

Fine-tuning the config

Attention! All config settings are applicable for any version of CS 1.6 - be it Steam or NoSteam.

Below are all the settings that can be used in the game config. The settings are well commented in Russian, so you can copy them completely into your config so that when editing a file you always know what each option does.

General description of the config.cfg settings

// This file is overwritten every time you change your in-game settings. // Add your settings to the "userconfig.cfg" file. // clear all previously specified button settings unbindall // show the game score table (list of players with frags and ping) bind "TAB" "+showscores" // attack (shooting a weapon, hitting with a knife, throwing grenades) bind "ENTER" " +attack" // cancel selection (also brings up the game menu) bind "ESCAPE" "cancelselect" // jump bind "SPACE" "+jump" // lean up bind """ "+moveup" // increase the resolution in the game ( increasing the screen size, but with a decrease in FPS) bind "+" "sizeup" // purchasing 1 clip for the main weapon (machine gun, shotgun or rifle) bind "," "buyammo1" // purchasing 1 clip for the pistol bind "." buyammo2" // bend down bind "/" "+movedown" // switch to SLOT 0 bind "0" "slot10" // switch to SLOT 1 bind "1" "slot1" // switch to SLOT 2 bind "2" "slot2" // switch to SLOT 3 bind "3" "slot3" // switch to SLOT 4 bind "4" "slot4" // switch to SLOT 5 bind "5" "slot5" // switch to SLOT 6 bind " 6" "slot6" // switch to SLOT 7 bind "7" "slot7" // switch to SLOT 8 bind "8" "slot8" // switch to SLOT 9 bind "9" "slot9" // up view control/ down with the mouse bind ";" "+mlook" // increase the resolution in the game (increase the screen size, but with a decrease in FPS) bind "=" "sizeup" // switch to the previous weapon bind "[" "invprev" // switch to the next weapon bind "]" "invnext" // show the game console bind "`" "toggleconsole" // move left bind "a" "+moveleft" // show the weapon purchase menu bind "b" "buy" // show menu of type 3 radio commands bind "c" "radio3" // move to the right bind "d" "+moveright" // action/use button // used to open doors, defuse bombs, press buttons, etc. bind "e" "+use" // turn the flashlight on/off bind "f" "impulse 100" // throw the current weapon to the ground bind "g" "drop" // show the player's command menu bind "h" "+commandmenu" // show the "brief" of the map -

The most important config settings:

• hud_fastswitch - set the value to "1" so that switching weapons is instantaneous.
• cl_weather - set to "0" to disable the weather, which on some maps lowers your FPS.
• _cl_autowepswitch - set to your liking: “1” - the selected weapon immediately appears in your hands, “0” - it falls into the inventory and can be selected later.
• setinfo "_vgui_menus" - again, set it to your liking: "1" - when purchasing, a menu with pictures of weapons and ammunition will be displayed, with the ability to select with the mouse. If the value is “0”, we disable the graphical menu and in this case the purchasing and team selection menu will be displayed in the form of text, navigation through the menu is carried out by pressing the numbers on the keyboard (this type of menu is convenient for professionals who care about the speed of purchasing, and not the pictures in the menu ).
• _cl_minmodels - to increase FPS, it is recommended to set the value to "1", disabling detailed rendering of all player models.
• cl_dynamiccrosshair - It is recommended to immediately get used to the dynamic sight in order to control your shooting. Set the value to "1" and then when squatting and jumping your sight will expand, making it clear that the spread when shooting will be much greater.
• fps_max - set "101" as the maximum possible FPS value.
• cl_cmdrate is the rate at which packets per second are sent from your client to the server. The setting can take a value from 10 to 101. With a good Internet connection, it is recommended to set the maximum value to “101”.
• cl_updaterate - this is at what speed per second the server will request packets from the client. Accepted values ​​are from 10 to 102, so feel free to set “102”.
• cl_cmdbackup - if packet loss occurs (unstable connection to the server), then we need to resend commands from the client and it is this setting that is responsible for the number of commands that it constantly stores. For a smoother and more comfortable game, it is recommended to set the value to "4".
• cl_rate - the number of bytes per second that the client transmits to the server (value from 1000 to 20000). It is recommended to set the value to "20000". In view of the fact that when starting a new map this value is constantly lost, it will be useful to bind the command to some button and when starting the map do not forget to press it: bind "j" "cl_rate 20000"
• cl_lc - if the server has a setting sv_unlag "1", then she allows clients lag compensation. Set the value to "1" to enable lag compensation on your game client.
• cl_lw - the setting is responsible for calculating all kinds of effects, from animation to bullet holes. It is better to enable it by setting the value to "1". If you disable this setting, then lag compensation cl_lc can also be turned off.
• ex_interp is the number of seconds between each update between the client and server. The setting is responsible for the position of players during updates. The setting can take values ​​from 0.009 to 0.1, but it is recommended to set the value to "0" so that the game automatically sets the optimal value, which is 1 / cl_updaterate. Although you can strictly set the minimum value to “0.009”.

Having played Counter-Strike 1.6 for many years, any player eventually comes to the understanding that a considerable share of the success of his game depends on the correct settings of numerous game parameters. Of course, at first glance this is such a small thing that at first it doesn’t really matter. But only amateurs can think so. But the real ones - professional Counter-Strike 1.6 players - have long realized the importance and value of fine-tuning game parameters individually for each player. Therefore, I propose to understand all the intricacies of this process in order to take another step towards professionalism in Counter-Strike 1.6.
So,config (from the English word " config") is a configuration file or configuration file that is used to store settings for computer programs, including settings in computer games.
IN Counter-Strike 1.6 is considered a config file, which is located in the subfolder "cstrike" or " cstrike_russian " - inside the main folder with your game, and having the extension ".cfg", and " .rc ».

A game CS 1.6 It has six basic configs, each of which performs one or another action. What are these configs? Let's find out.

1. autoexec.cfg – the very first config that automatically starts when the game starts.By default, it contains several settings for the server. This config may not be present in the “cstrike” or “cstrike_russian” folder for some players, but there is nothing to worry about. You can create it yourself, the main thing is to adhere to the correct file naming - only “ autoexec.cfg "and nothing else! Otherwise, your file will not fulfill its main purpose, namely, to run automatically.

2. config.cfg – standard player config, which is automatically launched by the CS 1.6 game immediately after “autoexec.cfg”.By default, it contains all the standard control settings in the game (keys are assigned certain functions), as well as settings responsible for graphics, sound and connection quality for playing online.

3. userconfig.cfg – individual player config, which contains the settings of a specific user.This configuration file, as in the case of the previously mentioned “autoexec.cfg”, may not be in your “/cstrike " or " /cstrike_russian " The solution to the problem is obvious - create the file yourself (read more about how to do this in the subsection " ") , and there is no need to adhere to a single file name (you can call it whatever you want).
One way or another, its performance is possible only after performing one of the two actions below:
a) at the very end of the config " config.cfg"(after all the entries contained in it) you need to add the following command "exec userconfig.cfg ", where instead of userconfig the file name that you gave it should be indicated;
b) you can also run this file from the console directly in the game by entering the command “exec userconfig.cfg ", where instead of userconfig the file name that you gave it should be indicated.
It should be noted that the second option (b) is very inconvenient, since in this case your config will only work at this particular launch of the game, and after the next entry into the game this procedure will need to be repeated over and over again, so it is better to focus on the first option (A).

4. listenserver.cfg – a config that contains some settings necessary and used when starting a regular server that you created on your computer(not a dedicated server).

5. server.cfg – a config that contains all the settings necessary and used when launching a dedicated server.This file is not used in most cases, so there is no need to edit it.

6. valve.rc – a configuration file that specifies parameters for all Valve games that are installed in the main folder (such as Half-Life, Counter-Strike, Team Fortress and others).This file is a kind of analogous to autoexec.cfg, because it is also automatically loaded before each game and is just as easy to edit.

Now that we have all the necessary knowledge about the structure of configuration files and their purpose, it’s time to put this knowledge into practice. To do this, you need to go into the game and create a server with any map. We recommend that you edit the config while you are directly in the game in order to personally observe all the changes that you make to your configuration file. We also recommend that you first read the article “List of console commands and their meanings” - so that the understanding of the changes you make is completely complete and transparent.
For that, to change certain parameters , you need to press [~ ] (or [ Yo ] Russian keyboard) call the console, in which enter the name of the command to be changed. In our opinion, most teams should not be subject to change, and some are completely prohibited at many major Counter-Strike 1.6 tournaments, so we do not recommend that you abuse this. Change only what is really inconvenient for you or interferes with the game, but don't try to change everything - this is just as wrong as downloading the configs of professional players in the hope that it will help change your own game.

Once you've made some settings changes, it's time to save their.This is done very simply thanks to the command “writecfg userconfig ", where instead of userconfig the file name that you want to give it should be indicated (a common option for naming such a file is your own nickname in Game).
note that when saving the configuration file no need to specify its extension, that is, do not use the construction “ .cfg»!
After these simple manipulations, you will be notified that your config has been successfully created, which means that all your settings are now stored in one single file.

Extract ( launch) your his config it will also not be difficult thanks to the use of the command “ exec userconfig.cfg ». Here, as you probably already noticed, needs to be added expansion design " .cfg» to the end of the post. Just like that, with just one simple executing the command, you can easily and simply restore all your settings, which will be convenient for you, at any time convenient for you.

Function conservation And extracting configs very useful, because the allows you to save in one single file those settings, to be convenient only for you , while you can periodically edit config file, for more fine-tuning parameters. This is also very useful if your computer periodically« fly off» all settingsor do you often exercisereinstalling your operating system.

Editing a config in text editing programs

Another important point: how to edit config, if you do not remember the exact name of the command that needs to be changed, but at the same time it is extremely important for you to change its parameter. Nothing could be easier! Go to the game folder " cstrike" or "cstrike_russian "and find your configuration file there with the extension " cfg". Right-click on it and select the menu item " To open with…" (in some cases simply " Open"), in the proposed menu, select the program " Notebook" and press " Ok" As you can see, your settings are arranged in a column, and their variables can be easily changed by selecting the values ​​you need.

That's how easy and simple we learned to create, save and edit configuration files. Well, the main thing is, of course, we understand the essence of their work. Go for it!
