In the new window explorer folder, open “csgo” and then the “cfg” folder.Open Steam, right-click on Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, and click "Manage".To find and access your custom CSGO configurations, here is the process step by step for either location. Additionally, if your CSGO practice config or autoexec file doesn’t work, you’ll know it is in the right place at the very least. If you do not want to share files between accounts, as well as keep it saved without risk of being deleted, place it in the userdata folder. This placement, if you uninstall, will delete your config file so make sure you save it elsewhere in case something happens. It will override any config settings placed in the userdata folder so, if you have multiple accounts you want to share config settings with on the same PC, keep your config file here. If you stick with the original default location, this config file will essentially be the master source. It's pretty simple but can be confusing for inexperienced players so, read further if you need some help. C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\STEAMID\730\local\cfg.You can still use this, as it is still present, however with the change your csgo config location is now here as well: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\csfg.This tool is published under the MIT licence.Valve changed the default location for player’s configs sometime back.

For example, you could use the Fast Aiming test and repeat it at close and far distances for both settings. The difficulty and length of testing depends on what you want, but it's important to test both sensitivity settings in the same way. I recommend using the training_aim_csgo_fixed map for testing because it gives you results as numbers, so they're easy to compare, and the tests are closer to actual gameplay. The tool will calculate two new sensitivity settings and give you the console command to set them in game.ĭo this until you've found the sensitivity setting that you think works the best. Go to the tool and select the sensitivity that had better results You can unbind the key after the test by entering unbind " " in the console. The switch key can be customized in tool options. Press the switch key ( ) and test the other sensitivity setting Test the first sensitivity setting and remember the results Setting the game to Windowed Fullscreen might be a good idea because it makes using Alt+Tab easier.

Go to the game and paste the commands in console The default settings should work in most cases. Mouse over the tool options to see a detailed description of each option. If Flash is supported and the Auto copy option is checked, it will automatically copy the console commands for changing the sensitivity in-game to the clipboard, otherwise you will need to Ctrl+C the commands manually. The tool then gives you a new command to enter into the console and you repeat the process until you've found the sensitivity that is the most accurate. You test and compare both settings in-game and then return to the tool and select which setting worked better. The tool gives you a command to paste in the game console ( ~) that allows switching between a pair of mouse sensitivity settings by pressing a key ( ).
The point of the method is to try to be more objective in comparing different sensitivities. It simplifies and improves the steps used in this method (video). This is a tool to help finding the best individual mouse sensitivity setting for CS players.
