In this guide, we will go through the most common and useful commands for practicing Counter-Strike: Global Offensive. You can also just skip to the end of the tutorial, where you can download or copy the config and apply it to your local server. The most common thing people request is the commands for grenade trajectory, show impacts and bots. This config has it all plus additional commands. All you have to do is execute the script and start practicing! Use it to practice flashes, smoke throws, nades, molotovs, positions, angles, search for boosts, spray control, etc. We have also included some useful binds.
If there is something in the config you don’t want, you can just erase it.
We made a similar guide before, the only difference is that the old one was just a grenade practice config.
First, we will start off by explaining, what the different console commands in the config do.
Server config
- sv_cheats 1
Enables “cheats”. - mp_limitteams 0
No team limit (e.g. you can have 10 people/bots on CT and 1 guy on T). - mp_autoteambalance 0
Turns auto team balances off. - mp_roundtime 60
Maximum roundtime set to 60 minutes. - mp_roundtime_defuse 60
Same… - mp_maxmoney 60000
Enables your maximum money to be 60.000 instead of 16.000. - mp_startmoney 60000
You will start with 60.000 money. - mp_freezetime 0
No freezetime at the beginning of each round. - mp_buytime 9999
Almost unlimited buy time. - mp_buy_anywhere 1
You can open the buy menu and buy from anywhere on the map. - sv_infinite_ammo 1
Give you infinite ammo and no reload. When practicing recoil patterns, you might want to set this to sv_infinite_ammo 2. This way you will have to reload but still have infinite ammo. - ammo_grenade_limit_total 5
You can now have all 5 grenade types. - bot_kick
Kicks all the bots. If you want to add bots, check the bot commands below. - mp_warmup_end

After the config is loaded, the server will restart the game after 1 second.

How to install the config
- Download the config, filename: practicecfg.zip.
- Unzip/extract the config file, you should have a file called practicecfg.cfg.
You will need a program to unzip, we recommend WinRar or 7Zip. - Remember to change KEY in the file to the key you wish to assign each bind to.
- Move the cfg file to your CS:GO cfg folder.
Normally located in:
C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\csgo\cfg - When you have started a local game server, open the console and type:
exec practicecfg - The game will restart and all the settings are now enabled.
You can also copy the full config below and put it in whatever cfg you like.
