CS2 Viewmodel Guide

Your viewmodel is how your weapon sits on screen. Here's what every command does and where to set it.

The commands

• viewmodel_fov — field of view of the weapon (54–68). Higher pulls the gun lower and out of the way; 68 is the most common pro value.
• viewmodel_offset_x — left/right position (−2 to 2.5). Positive moves the gun right.
• viewmodel_offset_y — forward/back (−2 to 2). Positive pushes it forward.
• viewmodel_offset_z — up/down (−2 to 2). Negative lowers the gun.
• viewmodel_presetpos — quick presets: 1 (desktop), 2 (couch), 3 (classic).
• cl_righthand — 1 for right hand, 0 for left.
