Optimising csgo radar

[TheMightyBewsh]

Can anyone help me by giving me the commands to optimise my csgo radar to make it better please?

[ZynXao]

check out http://simpleradar.com/ I've been using it since I started playing and it's great

[Mr. Sir]

Please put some information

[azertyy]

cl_radar_scale "0.3"
cl_radar_rotate "1"
cl_radar_always_centered "0"
cl_radar_scale "0.3"
cl_radar_icon_scale_min "0.5"
cl_hud_radar_scale "1"
bind "kp_enter" "incrementvar cl_radar_scale 0.32 0.52 0.05" // this lets you adjust radar scale on numpad enter

Something like this? Or what is it you want?

Yeah that’s great are they the perfect radar settings

[azertyy]

I would not say they are perfect, it is all user preference. Here is a guide someone made for optimizing your radar settings in cs:go. He posted all the commands you need + pictures what every command exactly does when you change the value.

Thanks I will go have a play around. When you hear foot steps can u change the distance of being able to hear the footsteps or is it linked to radar

Sound settings and radar settings are not combined in cs:go.

For better sound in cs:go i use these settings.. like i said before it is all personal preference.

When you launch cs:go, go to options and i use the following ;
Audio output configuration : Stereo headphones
And I myself disable the advanced 3D audio processing, i feel this makes everything to boomy (for me)

For sound settings i use these ones ;

volume "0.3" (change the value of this number to whatever is comfortable for you, the other settings below i would not change)
snd_mixahead "0.05"
snd_musicvolume ".10"
snd_headphone_pan_exponent "2"
snd_headphone_pan_radial_weight "2
snd_legacy_surround "0"
snd_pitchquality "1"
dsp_enhance_stereo "0"
suitvolume "0"


I see that you have 14hours in cs:go, do you actually know how to enable the console and make an autoexec config for your personal settings? So you don't have to type them everytime again and again.

snd_mixahead isnt in the game anymore, and i think legacy surround too(at least i get error when loading autoexec)

Yeah thanks have enabled it think I have figured out the radar how I like it for now thanks. Is there away to change the colour of my icon on the radar so it’s different to everyone else?

// Radar Settings
cl_radar_always_centered 0
cl_radar_scale 0.3
cl_hud_radar_scale 1.15
cl_radar_icon_scale_min 1
cl_radar_rotate "1"
cl_radar_square_with_scoreboard "1"

// radar zoom in-out script
bind "KP_plus" "incrementvar cl_radar_scale 0.25 1.0 0.05";
bind "KP_minus" "incrementvar cl_radar_scale 0.25 1.0 -0.05";

i suppose you mean in casual: no way
in matchmaking every player get his own specific colours(green, blue, purple, and so on) if you activate it. you can also enable it to have the color AND the first letter of this colour (example: blue icon with a "B" in it)
you cant choose the color except if you have a full-lobby. then every player can choose his colour

Oh so if I make changes to my radar in the console it won’t save them so when I next play they are wat I set?

you need a autoexec for it

- make changes
type in console: host-writeconfig

should make it permanent.
