Wallhack console command
Any CS2 player can see enemies through walls/turn on wallhack using one simple console command: r_drawOtherModels 2. This command cannot be used during matches because it requires enabled cheats on the servers. Therefore, you can use it only on a training server or during games with bots.
Still, you can turn WH on in CS2 by console this way. First, open the console. By default, it opens with ~. If the console won’t open, check if it’s enabled in the CS2 Game Settings. So, when you open the console, type sv_cheats 1, and then r_drawOtherModels 2. After this, a mesh will be applied to all models which will let you see through walls. This is a very useful command when practicing wallbangs and rounds overall.
CS2 Smoke Bug
You can see through smoke, not through walls, by activating AutoHDR in Windows. CS2 currently has a bug in this setting. Because of it, smoke disappears for a short time, which allows you to see through it. This is not the first time that smoke malfunctions in Counter-Strike. For example, in CS:GO it was possible to completely remove smoke for a short time by minimizing and expanding the game. However, that bug was quickly fixed.
CS.MONEY Blog strictly condemns the use of bugs. It’s unethical and ruins the fun for everyone involved in the match. Fortunately, Valve is now actively working on the game and regularly releasing patches. One of the recent patches fixed Splitscreen_mode 2, another buggy console command, which made it possible to hide wall textures for a short time. Most likely, the smoke bug will also be fixed soon.
Download and install cheats in CS2
Another obvious way to get a wallhack in CS2 is to download and install cheats. Pros: you’ll get a wallhack. Cons: not for long. Waves of VAC bans regularly cover CS2, each taking tens of thousands of accounts of bad players to hell. Along with a VAC ban comes not only a CS2 ban, but also a ban of some other Steam functions. For example, you won’t be able to exchange skins with a VAC ban.
Besides the obvious risk of getting banned, there is another aspect. Cheats can contain deep software. Installing cheats for CS2 can result in a computer lock, a keylogger, hidden mining soft, and literally any other problem that a cheat developer decided to create. We are against cheating in any form. It’s dangerous, unethical and just plain stupid.
How to see through walls in CS2?
All CS2 players have the ability to see through walls. No console commands or cheats are needed for this. Just use what the game already provides. For example, by setting the in-game sounds correctly, you can track the enemy’s position by the noise of footsteps and gunshots. CS2 has a very good audio engine, which helps to know where the sound is coming from a lot.
Another option is to communicate with your teammates. Exchaning info will help to create a comprehensive image of what is happening on the map thus realizing where the opponents are. After all, it’s obvious that if there are only two defenders at Plant B, then there should be three of them at Plant A. By developing your sense of the game, gaining more knowledge of how to play on different maps, using the right audio settings and communicating with the team you can almost see through walls.
