Copy the code. In the game open Settings → Game → Crosshair and press Share or Import.
Paste the code and confirm the import: the crosshair changes at once, no restart needed.
The console is even faster: apply_crosshair_code CSGO-s5Qbj-nvF89-cJjDd-mRdSG-5Yt4N. Put it on a key with bind to switch between two crosshairs mid-match.
Frequently asked
What crosshair does s1mple use?
A classic static cross: size 1, thickness 1, gap -4, no dot, no outline, cyan (preset 4). The code from 14 August 2026 is at the top of this page.
How do I apply s1mple's crosshair in CS2?
Copy the code CSGO-s5Qbj-nvF89-cJjDd-mRdSG-5Yt4N, open Settings → Game → Crosshair → Share or Import and paste it. Or type in the console: apply_crosshair_code CSGO-s5Qbj-nvF89-cJjDd-mRdSG-5Yt4N.
What colour is s1mple's crosshair?
Cyan (preset 4) — a standard cl_crosshaircolor preset. The preview above uses exactly the colour the code import will give you.
Does s1mple's crosshair have a dot?
No, cl_crosshairdot 0 — a plain cross without a dot. You can add one in the generator while keeping the other parameters.
Is s1mple's crosshair good for AWP?
s1mple is an AWPer, so this is an AWP crosshair by definition: when scoped it is replaced by the reticle, and the small cross is for no-scopes and the pistol.
How often does s1mple change the crosshair?
Rarely: a single code in the last 30 days. The history below is by day and map.
Where does the code come from?
Entered by hand, 14 August 2026; the source is named in the code history. Codes from our own demos appear after the first parsed matches — then each one carries the opponent and the event.
Which console commands match the code?
In one line: cl_crosshairstyle 4; cl_crosshairsize 1; cl_crosshairthickness 1; cl_crosshairgap -4; cl_crosshairdot 0; cl_crosshair_drawoutline 0; cl_crosshair_outlinethickness 1; cl_crosshaircolor 4; cl_crosshaircolor_r 0; cl_crosshaircolor_g 255; cl_crosshaircolor_b 0; cl_crosshairusealpha 1; cl_crosshairalpha 200; cl_crosshair_t 0; cl_crosshair_recoil 0; cl_crosshairgap_useweaponvalue 0; cl_fixedcrosshairgap 3; cl_crosshair_dynamic_splitdist 3; cl_crosshair_dynamic_splitalpha_innermod 0; cl_crosshair_dynamic_splitalpha_outermod 1; cl_crosshair_dynamic_maxdist_splitratio 1. The line with a copy button is in the console commands section above.
How do I change the colour but keep the shape?
Open the code in the generator: change only the colour, keep size, thickness and gap, and get a new code.
