Many commands are circulating on the Internet that are no longer current. The following work and must be entered in Steam without quotes.

• "- console" activates the console with which you can enter commands in the game.
• "-noborder" deactivates the edge of the program window.
• "-nointro" suppresses the video at the start.
• "cl_righthand 1" changes the weapon hand from left (standard) to right. The developer of Counter-Strike, Goose, is left-handed and that's why all CS titles have this special feature.

• If you want to change more than the commands listed above, you have to go directly to the game configuration file.
