How to Import Crosshair Codes in CS2

If you still don’t know how to import these codes into your game, don’t worry, it’s pretty simple. Just follow these steps:

2. Go to ‘Game’ and then ‘Crosshair’
3. On the crosshair preview image, click ‘Share and Import’
4. Paste the code into the pop-up and click ‘Import’

While this will change your crosshair to the exact settings used by the professional player, you may also want to check the resolution they play at as well. Most pros play on a 4:3 stretched res, which will make the crosshair larger than on default, 16:9 res. Of course, feel free to play around with these settings and adjust them to your personal liking.
