When I watch some CS:GO videos, I see they have fully static crosshair. For example, in this video, NiP vs eXtensive from ESL Major Series Winter 2012. I'm not talking about a recoil control thing. I mean that guys in the video can smoothly pull their aim down. However, when I shoot there is a little vibration on my crosshair. I mean very small, left and right. How do they do that?

edit: I painted : https://i.sstatic.net/ljryk.png compare this videos first:

(sorry 4 the quality, fraps gives me too big file when I choose better resol) second one:

  • Having not have watched the video, just generally speaking for any FPS. The best way to manage your crosshair and recoil is to shoot in bursts.

    My guess is a stable mouse. TRy a better surface for your existing mouse (a good mousepad) or a good high resolution gaming mouse. Seems like what you are experiencing is mouse tremors.

You can't get rid of these little shakes when you shoot and aim down to compensate the recoil. It's only possible, when you're using "sv_cheats 1", so it won't be possible in any server. The NiP aim is not smooth as you think. It just looks like it's smooth, because you're a GOTV spectator. On GOTV they turned off this visual shakes, to make it more watchable for a general public. Try, instead, to get used to that. The shakes appears to annoy a little less when you play at 128 tick rate servers. Try that too. Good luck and keep practicing.

Everything you ever wanted to know about CS:GO crosshairs: http://www.pro-hl.com/columns/csgo_crosshairs.php

The part in particular you are looking for is at the bottom of the page.

These crosshairs may not indicate friendly & enemy targets but does allow you to change your crosshair colour and restore that CS look as seen in CS:S & CS1.6. You can also change the thickness of the crosshair by using cl_crosshairthickness "1", add a centre dot (as seen above) by using cl_crosshairdot "1", change the crosshairs to red by cl_crosshaircolor_r "250", make them static by cl_crosshairstyle "2"& cl_observercrosshair "1"

    I dont think this is about crosshair settings, and btw it is already cl_crosshairstyle "2"& cl_observercrosshair "1"

  • You might try rephrasing the question, it's a bit confusing.

  • I suggest reading over this mouse optimization guide. Some things in the document no longer apply, but there is plenty of relevant configuration information. overclock.net/t/173255/cs-s-mouse-optimization-guide Also check out fatal1ty's guide: fatal1ty.com/fatal1ty-mouse-sensitivity

If you make a dot crosshair it's completely static. Like this:

cl_crosshairalpha "200";
cl_crosshaircolor "5";
cl_crosshaircolor_b "0";
cl_crosshaircolor_r "0";
cl_crosshaircolor_g "255";
cl_crosshairdot "1";
cl_crosshairgap "0";
cl_crosshairsize "0";
cl_crosshairstyle "2";
cl_crosshairusealpha "1";
cl_crosshairthickness "1.5";
cl_fixedcrosshairgap "0";
cl_crosshair_outline "0";
cl_crosshair_outline_draw "0";
