cvar-unhide-s2

A Source 2 plugin to reveal all console variables and commands that are marked as hidden or development-only in Counter-Strike 2.

Important

You must add -insecure to Counter-Strike's launch options for this plugin to load.

Supported games

• Counter-Strike 2

Installation

1. Download the latest release of the plugin:
   https://github.com/saul/cvar-unhide-s2/releases/latest

2. Extract the contents of the ZIP to the game's mod folder.

   • 📂 $STEAM\steamapps\common\Counter-Strike Global Offensive\game\csgo

   After extraction there should be an addons folder in the game folder, e.g. Counter-Strike Global Offensive\game\csgo\addons\...

3. Update the game\csgo\gameinfo.gi file:
   Around line 22, add the Game csgo/addons search path. This tells the engine to load the plugin before loading Counter-Strike.

   FileSystem
   {
   	SearchPaths
   	{
   		Game_LowViolence	csgo_lv // Perfect World content override
   
   +		Game	csgo/addons
   		Game	csgo
   		Game	csgo_imported
   		Game	csgo_core
   		Game	core

4. Start the game from Steam.

   [!WARNING] Counter-Strike must be launched with -insecure in the launch options. If you don't know how to do this, take a look this Steam Community guide.

If you want to disable cvar-unhide-s2:

• Remove the Game csgo/addons line from the gameinfo.gi file.
• Remove -insecure from the game's launch options.

Available commands

If you installed the plugin correctly, you should now be able to use the following commands in the console:

• cvar_unhide: Reveal all hidden/development-only convars/concommands.
• cvarlist_md: Write all concmds/cvars to a cvarlist.md file in the csgo game directory. See cvarlist.md for example output.
