Hey,
Counter-Strike:Source did work out of the box, but I have an annoying problem. The aim is way too big. I've tried to set it to "small" but still, it's too big.
Is there anyway I can scale the aim down even more?

Open the console. ( ` tilde)
Type.

Code: Select all

cg_crosshairscale 2500


Where 2500 is you can choose what you want. I find 2500 is good for me, you may want it smaller with TH.
Note that if you save anything in the options menu after this, it will revert the size, so do this once all your other options are settled.

This should do the trick.
Enter this into the console.

Code: Select all

cl_crosshairscale 3500
The higher the number the smaller the crosshair gets.
Keep in mind that if you ever change settings in the options menu you will have to reset this in the console.

Hey,
It there a way to move the radar back to the middle screen? The top left is way to far for me.
