#3 in HLTV Top 20 Players of 2011 (Natus Vincere). markeloff played CS 1.6 in 2011, so these are their CS:GO settings from 2015-03-12, the closest to 2011 we found that can be converted, with the sensitivity and resolution from 2016-12-13. Source confidence: low.

Crosshair new system

720p pixels, enlarged

cl_crosshairstyle 5; cl_crosshair_length 8; cl_crosshair_thickness 1; cl_crosshair_gap 2; cl_crosshairdot 0; cl_crosshair_t 0; cl_crosshair_drawoutline 0; cl_crosshair_recoil 0; cl_crosshaircolor_r 50; cl_crosshaircolor_g 250; cl_crosshaircolor_b 250; cl_crosshaircolor_a 255; cl_ironsight_usecrosshaircolor 0; cl_ironsight_dot_scale 1; cl_crosshair_screen_height 720

Not in this config because the setting didn't exist yet, so off: cl_crosshair_t, cl_crosshair_recoil.
Not in this config, so off, as CS:GO had it by default: cl_crosshairgap_useweaponvalue.
Old style 5 (Legacy) placed its bars at round(4 × height / 1200 + gap) at rest instead of Static Cross's trunc(4 + gap); at 720 that is 1 instead of 3 pixels, a reading of the old source that is unverified in the pre-update game.
Odd-width bars sit on a different centre pixel in the new game, so the crosshair may appear 1 px off.
Old thickness 0 still drew a thin line, so the export uses a positive thickness.
Exported as style 5, Dynamic Cross (Legacy/Shot Feedback), which like the old style 5 rests at this gap and widens when you fire; how far it widens is not checked in game.

markeloff played CS 1.6 in 2011, so these are their CS:GO settings from 2015-03-12, the closest to 2011 we found that can be converted (see where these settings come from). Converted to CS2's crosshair system since the Sept 22, 2026 update, authored at 720p, the resolution the crosshair's source lists; CS2 rescales it to your resolution.

Valve published no conversion formula. This uses a community reconstruction (small-indie-crosshair-company v0.19.1, model community-static-v11, CS2 build 2000922); for Static Cross at 1080p and 960p it agrees with the rule crosshairrestore.com measured from in-game screenshots (CS2 builds before Sept 30), and nothing else has been checked against captures.

The paste sets every setting that shapes this crosshair, including the iron-sight dot (CS2's defaults where their config has no value), so nothing from your current crosshair carries over.

Full config 2 parts

Download .cfg

The CS2 console can reject a pasted line longer than 510 characters, so the full config comes in parts: press ~ in CS2, paste part 1, press Enter, then do the same with the next part. Or download the .cfg, save it in Counter-Strike Global Offensive/game/csgo/cfg/ and run exec markeloff-2011 in the console.

Crosshair · 2015-03-12 · confidence low · liquipedia.net 1, 2, 3
How the date is known
Liquipedia's markeloff page has had this Crosshair table since revision 123770 of 12 Mar 2015 (an edit on the KnifeRound.net wiki, whose history Liquipedia imported in May 2015), and it is unchanged in revision 213428 of 28 Sep 2015. The table cites no source, so the date is when it was added to the page, not when he set it. That first revision lists his resolution as 1280x720, so the crosshair is converted at 720p; from 12 Jun 2015 (revision 153908) the page lists the same crosshair with 1024x768 black bars, the resolution shown here. Its outline thickness 0 is read as the outline off, and cl_crosshairusealpha 1 is assumed for its alpha 255, as the table gives no usealpha.

DPI is only taken from a source that lists the same sensitivity, so the eDPI matches the sensitivity shown. The other parts can come from configs of different dates, as listed.
