ErScripts.exefrom the release above and place it in a writable folder. -
In Steam, open Counter-Strike 2 > Properties > General and add these launch options:
-conclearlog -condebug +bind scancode104 exec erscripts1 -
For the first run, start ErScripts before CS2 so it can create its config and GSI files. If CS2 is already open when those files are created, restart the game.

Edit dimensions, colors and outlines, then choose Apply to CS2 or Copy commands. Reload reads your saved CS2 crosshair. Dimensions use CS2's limits and resolution scaling; controls unused by the selected style are disabled.
Sniper animation uses only your active, living player's GSI data. Spectator data is ignored. Magazine decreases confirm shots; reloads, weapon changes and session changes reset the tracker. GSI does not expose exact shot timing, movement or aim punch, so dynamic behavior can differ from CS2. No game memory is read.
Export saved files backs up the active Steam account. Capture from CS2 also reads exposed console variables, binds and aliases. Capture hides the menu; return to CS2 and wait for completion. Open export folder shows the result under exports/.
Exports include a generated erscripts-export.cfg, settings.json, original settings files, and detected local scripts. Video and machine settings are preserved as original files. To restore the generated CFG, copy it into game/csgo/cfg and run exec erscripts-export in CS2. Export does not apply settings automatically. Saved files can lag behind unsaved changes, and hidden engine state cannot be exported.

Auto Stop, Pixel Trigger, Angle Bind and Auto Pistol require an explicit risk acknowledgement each time you enable them. Loading a profile leaves them disabled. Automation can violate game, server or platform rules and lead to restrictions or bans. External operation does not guarantee safety or permission. ErScripts is not affiliated with Valve.
Requires Windows 10/11, Visual Studio with the C++ desktop workload, Windows SDK and the v143 toolset. The application uses C++20.
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/emp0ry/cs2-ErScripts.git
cd cs2-ErScriptsOpen ErScripts.sln, select Release | x64 and build. If you cloned without submodules, run git submodule update --init --recursive first.
Alternatively, use CMake 3.24 or newer from a Visual Studio Developer PowerShell with Ninja:
cmake -S . -B build -G Ninja -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release
cmake --build build--preview opens the menu without CS2. --no-update keeps a local build from replacing itself with a published release.
