It's no secret that Contra has long been a leader among online shooters. It has long become a game sport. A variety of competitions are held in the game of counter, including world championships. And every professional player knows for sure that to achieve real success, you need to adapt the game to your own style. This helps simplify some aspects of the game and make actions more efficient.

This does not mean that you should thoughtlessly resort to using cheats, because they are prohibited and considered a violation of the rules. There are “legal” ways to make the gaming experience easier for yourself. For example, such methods include optimizing the size of the sight for a specific player. And it is about the personalization of the sight that we are talking about next.

Instructions on how to make a small crosshair in CSS

To configure the aiming icon, you need to enter codes in the window of the called console. To open it, use the “е” key for the Russian keyboard layout and “~” for the English one. Codes are entered into a special line. Below is an example of commands that will allow you to configure the sight in the old version and in the updated one.

But first you need:

1. enter the game;
2. open the command console by pressing the appropriate key;
3. enter the code.

The following codes exist to adjust the sight size:

• cl_crosshairscale 5000– output of a small sharp aiming icon
• cl_crosshairscale 2000– medium-sized sight
• cl_crosshairscale 20000- the smallest sight. It is difficult to control, but it allows for more accurate aiming
• cl_crosshaircolor– color change

For the updated "Contra" the codes are as follows:

• cl_crosshairsize– reduction of sight. After entering the main command, you can specify a number that will specify the order of reduction. This way you can choose any size
• cl_legacy_crosshair_scale 1– color change
• cl_crosshairthickness– change width

Now that the sight is configured, you can safely go into battle!

Shooting from various weapons is an integral part of any shooter or FPS. And an integral part of shooting is always aiming. Aim in CS it’s not just a dot or crosshair pointing to the center of the screen. The game developers have implemented a fairly realistic shooting system. When fired, bullets do not fly exactly into the crosshairs, but with a slight spread. The “recoil” effect is simulated, when after the first shot the next one will be fired with less accuracy. The spread also increases when moving both at a pace and on foot, as well as when jumping. At the same time, crouching can significantly reduce the radius of bullet spread. For clarity aim made not static, but dynamic - it expands and contracts depending on the player’s actions. How more sight at a certain point, the greater the spread of bullets when fired from a weapon.

Aim, how much in the game you can customize for yourself. Some people want to change its color, others want to make it static. This article is dedicated to describing the changes sight parameters.

Setting up the CS 1.6 sight from the game menu

The easiest thing you can do is go to the game menu and go to the “Multiplayer” tab. There you can change (and immediately see the changes in the picture) the following parameters:

scope size(large, medium, small and automatically adjusts to screen resolution);

sight color;

transparency (whether the world around you will be visible through the sight).

Not much. But that's not all. The console gives us much more scope for customizing the sight.

Setting up the CS 1.6 sight from the console

In the console you can configure the same parameters as in the menu:

• cl_crosshair_size ; - scope size
• cl_crosshair_color“R G B” is the color of the sight, where instead of R, G and B you need to write a number from 0 to 255. Each number is responsible for its own color: red, green and blue, respectively. By mixing these colors you can paint the sight in any color. For example: the parameters “255 255 255” will make the sight white, “255 255 0” yellow, “255 0 0” red and so on. You can find out a set of rgb parameters for the color of interest on the corresponding resources by searching “rgb online” in a search engine;
• cl_crosshair_translucent- transparency (0 - disable transparency, 1 - enable).

But that's not all. It is possible to disable the narrowing and widening of the sight using the command cl_dynamiccrosshair (0 - disable dynamic sight change, 1 - enable).

Finally, it’s worth mentioning one interesting trick. You need to go to the console and run the following sequence of commands:

cl_dynamiccrosshair 1

Each of those who spend their evenings playing Counter-Strike 1.6 wants to make the game as convenient and customized as possible. Fortunately, the counter is highly customizable, and we want to tell you how to change the crosshair in CS 1.6.

There are two ways How to make color came in Counter-Strike1.6 - using the console or internal game settings. Let's look at both options step by step.

• Let's start the game, go to the settings, we are interested in the “Crosshairappearance” column, there we can select the size and color of the CS 1.6 sight, but the settings are very meager, since we are offered only 5 color options and 4 size options. The sights are standard, each of them is good in a certain situation: a small one will allow you to aim at a head on the other end of the map, a medium one will be convenient in clutches, and a large one will improve your shooting skills with shotguns and pistols. There is also an automatic aim that adjusts to your screen resolution.
• The second more flexible configuration method requires console use. To do this, in the game you need to press the tilde key “`”, which is located in the same place as the letter “е”. After which a dialog box will appear in which you need to enter certain commands. Let's look at the functionality of each of them.

Changing crosshair in the game client

• cl_crosshair_color number– a command that changes the color of the sight in accordance with a given number. For convenience, a table was created that displays the entire spectrum of colors visible to humans in numerical equivalent. You can find it using any search engine, entering the phrase “RGB ColorWheel”. By selecting desired color, you will get 3 numbers to add to the command, each separated by a space. For example, if you want to make the crosshair purple, you would enter "cl_crosshair_color 255 0 230"
• cl_crosshair_size– changes the size, just add the desired size to English to the team. Big – lagre, small – small and so on
• cl_crosshair_translucent– affects the transparency of the sight and has only two options, where 0 means transparency is turned off, and 1 means it’s on.

I hope that our article helped you make the game more comfortable for you, and if you have any questions regarding console commands, you can clearly see how it works in the video.

Everyone probably knows the ready-made servers from the site c-s.ua, and everyone also knows their unpleasant inscription “*** CepBep Cka4eH C c-s.ua ***”. Well, I wrote a plugin that does exactly the same thing, only the message wakes you up;]
I made 2 types of plugins with 1 in 1 actions, like on c-s.ua. Type 1 - the message wakes you up as usual (under the radar). Type 2 - the message awakens in a new way, over time.

CVAR's:
reklamko_time "180" - interval between displaying HUD messages (in seconds)
reklamko "TEXT" - a message that is displayed in the game

[+]
reklamko_time_msg "5" - time in seconds for how long the inscription will hang.

Additionally:
- Let's open the source code (.sma)
- We are looking for the line set_hudmessage(0, 255, 255, 0.02, 0.18, 0, 6.0, 5.0)
- In the line, 0, 255, 255, these are the colors of the R G B format (you can change them)
- 0.02, 0.18, are the X Y coordinates where the inscription wakes up (you can change it)

Shooting in CS 1.6 has a number of nuances. Shooting in the famous shooter is planned to the smallest detail. The sight is also subject to wide settings. It can be of various parameters and colors. Some will ask: “What is this for?” Some change the sight purely for beauty, while others change its size to make it easier to aim. After all, when firing, the lead sometimes expands, sometimes contracts, i.e. is dynamic. And for some it is more convenient if, for example, it is smaller in size. In this article it will be dangerous how to change the size and color of the led in CS 1.6.

Two ways to adjust the sight

Method 1

The first method is the simplest. To make adjustments to the size of the sight, you need to go to the "Multiplayer" menu. There you can make changes and immediately see them on the screen. You can adjust the scope size: small, medium, large. You can also choose the color of the sight, incl. making it transparent.

Method 2

The essence this method consists of entering a special command into the console. To do this, you must first open the console itself. This can be done by pressing the “E” key. After this, you need to enter the following list of tasks:

cl_lw 1
cl_lc 1
cl_dynamiccrosshair 1
+duck
cl_lw 0
cl_lc 0
-duck

To prevent the sight from expanding, you will need the following command:

Additional sight settings

Sight transparency

To make the sight transparent, you need to enter the following command: cl_crosshair_translucent 0. It is worth noting that the number “0” at the end turns off transparency, and the number “1” turns it on.

Sight dynamics

To disable screen dynamics, use the following command: cl_dynamiccrosshair 0. The situation with “0” and “1” is similar.

The numbers at the end in the screenshot below determine how transparent the sight will be. To change its transparency, you just need to enter the command “cl_crosshair_color 0”, and replace zero with the optimal parameter.

When you exit CS, these settings are lost. To avoid this, you need to register them in config CS so that you don’t have to enter settings every time you start the game or switch between servers.
