Copying someone's crosshair in CS:GO is a straightforward process that I'll break down into simple steps. There are multiple methods you can use, and I'll cover the most reliable ones.

Method 1: Using Share Code This is the easiest and most accurate way to copy another player's crosshair:

1. Ask the player for their crosshair share code
2. Open CS:GO console (press ~ key)
3. Type: cl_crosshaircode "PASTE-CODE-HERE"
4. Press Enter
5. The crosshair will be instantly applied

Method 2: Using Console Commands During Game If you're playing with someone and want to copy their crosshair:

1. Open console
2. Type: cl_crosshaircopy
3. Look at the player whose crosshair you want
4. Press the key you bound the command to
5. Their crosshair settings will be applied to yours

Method 3: Manual Settings Copy If someone shares their crosshair settings manually:

1. Open console
2. Enter each command they provide
3. Common commands include:
    - cl_crosshairsize
    - cl_crosshairthickness
    - cl_crosshaircolor
    - cl_crosshairgap
    - cl_crosshairstyle

Pro Tips:

  • Always save your original crosshair settings before copying someone else's
  • You can create multiple crosshair configs and switch between them
  • Test the crosshair in practice mode before using it in competitive matches

Troubleshooting: If the crosshair doesn't copy correctly:

  • Make sure you've entered the share code exactly as provided
  • Check that your console is enabled in game settings
  • Verify that you're using the correct commands
  • Restart the game if changes don't apply

The crosshair system in CS:GO is highly customizable, so once you've copied someone's settings, you can make minor adjustments to better suit your preferences while maintaining the basic style you liked from the original.

Remember that what works for one player might not work for you, so don't be afraid to make adjustments after copying someone's crosshair settings.
