Crosshair new system
Full config 3 parts
Download .cfgThe 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 hunter- in the console.

The autoexec.cfg exactly as settings.gg serves it, in the format from before the Sept 22, 2026 update: its crosshair settings no longer work in CS2, so don't exec it — use the converted commands or .cfg above.
