Additional CS:GO beginner queries about FOV and crosshair settings.
To adjust your FOV and crosshair to the link provided, you’d need to follow specific steps depending on your platform. The text at the top likely explains the process, while the paste data below shows the raw details. Changing FOV affects both the gun’s visible size and its overall field of view, not just its width or distance perception.
FOV is limited to 68 degrees. You must create an autoexec file or input values manually in the console. In CS:GO, FOV can't be adjusted directly—it's fixed at 90 degrees for 16:9. You can only modify the viewmodel FOV, which affects the gun's appearance size. The actual FOV remains capped at 68 degrees.

Run in 4:3 stretched for a lower field of view—though I’m not sure it genuinely reduces it, it definitely looks like it does.
The field width cannot be adjusted in CS:GO; only the weapon size and placement can be modified. To alter the FOV from its default setting, you must adjust the resolution. Using a 4:3 format yields a reduced FOV and lower resolution, whereas 16:10 offers a slightly wider FOV than 16:9 but less than 4:3, stretching the smaller resolution while maintaining a narrower field of view. If you're new to CS:GO, consider playing on the native version unless the lower FOV or stretched view feels more comfortable. The standard resolution for CS:GO is 16:9. Crosshair appearance can be customized through the console using different cl_crosshair commands. For guidance, you can find many tutorials online on creating an autoexec file in your game folder and adding those commands. This method won't result in a ban, so you can proceed without concern. When launching the game, open the console, type 'exec autoexec' (or the name of your executable) and press enter to load it. To ensure the file runs each time, open game settings, select 'Launch Options', type '-autoexec' in the input field, and close the window.
Elapo's statement needs clarification. FOV refers to the viewmodel's field of view, which is typically capped at 68 degrees. The actual visible angle depends on your screen resolution and settings, not a fixed 90 degrees.
