#8 in HLTV Top 20 Players of 2015 (Team EnVyUs). These are Happy's CS:GO settings from 2015-02-01, the year of the ranking, with the viewmodel and zoom sensitivity from 2013 and the sensitivity from 2015-05-06 and the resolution from 2016-12-13. Source confidence: medium.

His game-written config from 2013, the source of the viewmodel here and of the 2014 entry, has the same crosshair with thickness 1 instead of 0.9.

  • 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.
  • Odd-width bars sit on a different centre pixel in the new game, so the crosshair may appear 1 px off.

These are Happy's CS:GO settings from 2015-02-01, the year of the ranking (see where these settings come from). Converted to CS2's crosshair system since the Sept 22, 2026 update, authored at 768p, Happy's resolution; 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 3 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 happy-2015 in the console.

CS2 doesn't allow these via console commands — set them in Settings → Video. For stretched scaling also configure your GPU driver panel.

Where these settings come from

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.
