Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, or simply just CS:GO, is a game that can be customized in many ways. One way is the developer console, which gives users access to heavy customization of everything from radar to the crosshair. However, to be able to tweak your in-game settings and commands, you need to know what commands to use. For a more in-depth guide on configs, check out our CS:GO config and autoexec guide.
In this guide, we will be going over a special type of console commands in CS:GO – the sv_cheats 1 commands. These are often referred to as CS:GO cheat commands, or CS:GO hacks or hack commands. The reason is what these commands do, as they can often archive the same thing as some CS:GO hacks.
Before we start, you will need to enable these commands, and also we will go over some common questions about the commands.
How to enable SV cheats commands in CS:GO
Before you can use any of the following commands we will go over, you need to activate sv_cheats in the server you are playing.
This can ONLY be done by the server moderator/admin or in the server configuration itself. This means that you will NOT be able to use these commands in public CS:GO games or in competitive matches. If you join a server through the server browser, you will be able to use the commands IF the mod/admin has activated sv_cheats, you cannot activate it yourself without getting permission.
Now, with that in place, how do you actually go about activating these “CS:GO cheats”?
If you create your own server, for example by starting a game with bots, or settings up a server where you are admin, you can activate sv_cheats with a simple console command.
Open up the developer console, and type the following:
sv_cheats 1
The default value is 0, when sv_cheats is set to 1, it means that it has been activated. Please note, that it is not only activated for you, but for everyone in the server. So everyone else will be able to use the same commands, except bots.
Will I get VAC banned for using these commands?
Absolutely not! Since these console commands and cvars only works in a server where sv_cheats is activated, you will not be VAC banned for trying out the commands in your own server, and the commands will simply not work in competitive games or public CS:GO games.
So do not worry, you can safely try out these commands in your own server – they are “VAC proof”.
Sv_cheats commands
Now that you know how to activate the commands and you feel confident that it will not get banned, let’s hop into the commands.
Most of these commands are made for testing purposes for the developers, but people often refer to them as cheats and give them names related to cheats and hacks. We will use the same terminology here, as it gives a good indication of what the commands do.
If you are interested in more console cheat commands that mimic CS:GO hacks, we have made a CS:GO hacks with sv_cheats 1 guide.
Cheats and hacks commands
These commands imitate what can sometimes be achieved by using real hacks and cheats (which will get you banned). This includes being invincible, see through walls, and many other fun features.
Aimbot command
A lot of people are looking for an in-game aimbot command or auto-aim command. It is actually possible but requires you to hold your crosshair on your targets player model when you are activating the command.
How to: Point your crosshair to the enemy player you want to have “aimbot” on. Type the following in the console and hit enter:
!picker addoutput “ModelScale 0”
Now every time you shoot anywhere near the target, you will instead hit their head with a headshot.
Wallhacks
Wallhacks mean that you can see other players and objects through the walls. There are a few commands that will you get a feeling of a wallhack, and we have listed them from the best to worst below.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| r_drawothermodels 2 | Will render the player models as wireframe, which will make you able to see teammates and enemies through the walls. You will not be able to distinguish friendly teammates from enemies, but you can use your radar for this instead. The default value is 1 (no wireframe wallhack). It can be 0, 1, or 2. |
| enable_skeleton_draw 1 | This will render the “skeleton” of all players, giving you the ability to see the “skeletons” through the walls. The default value is 0. It can be 0 or 1. |
| mat_wireframe 2 | Mat_wireframe works a lot like the r_drawothermodels 2 command. The difference is that mat_wireframe will also render other things than the player as wireframe, making it a bit more confusing to look at. The default value is 0. Can be 0, 1, 2, 3 or 4 (various wireframe renderings). |
| mat_proxy 2 | This is more like a traditional wallhack. You will be able to see players through some walls and objects, but your screen will also turn very bright at times, so it is not really that useful. The default value is 0. It can be 0, 1, 2, or 3. |
No Recoil and No Spread
Get 100% accuracy, even when running and completely remove randomness from shooting.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| weapon_accuracy_nospread 1 | This command will enable no-spread / disable weapon inaccuracy. The default value is 0 (spread enabled). |
| weapon_recoil_scale 0 | This command will enable no recoil. This means that your bullets will always hit where your crosshair is. The default value is 2. It can be any value, also negative. Negative values will invert the recoil pattern. |
Godmode, Fly, Noclip, Infinite Ammo, and Other Fun Commands
These commands work a lot like classic cheats you would find in a computer game. Giving you invincibility, infinite ammo, and the ability to move through objects.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| god | The classic god-mode command. Will make you invincible. Type again to turn it off. |
| sv_infinite_ammo 1 | Will give you infinite ammunition for all your guns. The default value is 0. It can be 0, 1, or 2 which will net different degrees of infinite ammo. 0: no infinite ammo |
| noclip | Noclip mode aka. “no clipping” command. Will give you the ability to fly around and move through objects. Type again to turn off. |
| thirdperson | Typing “thirdperson” in the console menu will change the view from first-person to third-person. To go back to the first-person view, type “firstperson” in the console. |
| firstperson | Change perspective to first-person. |
| r_drawparticles 0 | The “no smoke” cheat/command. Using this command will hide particles, which include smoke from smoke grenades unless you are standing directly inside the smoke. The default value is 1. It can be 0 or 1. |
| fog_override 1 | The “no fog” command. When you zoom in with a sniper rifle, the image will be kind of foggy. With this command active, you will have a clear image even while zoomed in. After using fog_override 1, you should use fog_enable 0 to disable fog completely. |
| fog_enable 0 | Disable fog – see the previous command. The default value is 1. It can be 0 or 1. |
| fogui | This will open an interactive user interface (UI) where you can play with fog settings. You can decrease and increase fog and even change the color of the fog. |
| host_timescale [value] | The “speed hack” command, replace [value] with any value. This will not only speed you up but will change the speed/timescale of the whole server, making everyone appear super quick or slow. The default value is 0. Higher values will make you move faster, while lower values will make you move slower. Example values Speed up: host_timescale 5 Slow-motion: host_timescale 0.5 |
| host_framerate [value] | Another speedhack command, replace [value] with any value. This works by locking the framerate, which will, in turn, make the game faster/flower. The default value is 0 (off). If you set host_framerate to 500, you will see your in-game FPS counter being locked at 500 FPS, while you are not really getting 500 FPS, your in-game movements will be slower. Higher values = slower. Lower values = faster. Example values Speedhack: host_framerate 50 Slow-motion: host_framerate 500 |
| sv_consistency 0 | Consistency bypass. This command will enable/disable whether the server enforces file consistency for critical files. The default value is 0. |
| sv_showimpacts 1 | When enabled, you will see an impact marker every time you shoot. The default value is 0. It can be 0 or 1. |
| cl_pitchup 900 | Unlock max up sight. 900 can be replaced with any value. It is the amount you can move up. If set to 900, you can move all the way up you want, until you turn around and are upside down. The default value is 89. |
| cl_pitchdown 900 | Unlock max down sight. Opposite of cl_pitchup. The default value is 89. |
| snd_show 1 snd_visualize 1 | Sound ESP command. Will display various information about in-game sounds. The default value is 0. |
| cl_leveloverview 2 | This command will show you the whole map from above. However, this command can sometimes be buggy and will only work sometimes. The default value is 0. Values can be 0, 1, or 2. |
CS:GO Render Commands
These commands will change like the game renders, much like the “wallhack” commands from earlier in this article.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| mat_fullbright 3 | Fullbright command. At the highest value, the walls and models will appear smooth and bright. The default value is 0. Can be 0, 1, 2 or 3. |
| mat_fillrate 1 | This is the “no flash” command, sometimes called “Asus wallhack”. When this is enabled, your screen will not become bright when being flashed by a flashbang grenade. The default value is 0 (off). Can be 0 or 1. |
| r_showenvcubemap 1 | When this command is enabled, all models and weapons will look like the have a chrome finish. The default value is 0. Can be 0 or 1. |
| mat_showlowresimage 1 | Minecraft mode. This command will enable extra low resolution, making the walls and environment look like Minecraft. The default value is 0. Can be 0 or 1. |
Other sv_cheats commands
These commands are not as useful, but nonetheless they require that sv cheats are enabled in order to function.
| Command | Description |
|---|---|
| perfui | A built-in level performance tool |
| cl_particles_show_bbox 1 | Grenade/particle “ESP”. The default value is 0. It can be 0 or 1. |

Final Word
All the commands in this article can be combined, so it is not up to you to try out various combinations. Taking a few friends into a server and enabling some of the commands can be quite some fun, and I recommend you to play around with the “speedhacks” and infinite ammo commands.
This guide has been written with inspiration from this SV_Cheats console commands guide. So if you are interested in deeper insights then go check out that guide. They have also made a complete list of sv_cheats 1 commands.
