All Wallhack Commands in CS2 (CSGO) Listed & Explained

Anyone who has played Counter-Strike (especially non-Prime players) has heard of something called Wallhack (WH). Wallhack is a type of cheat that allows you to see your opponents through walls. Along with aimbot, it is the most popular cheat used in CS2 (CSGO). However, did you know that you can enable it with a single command in the Counter Strike's Developer Console? 

How to Activate Wallhack With the Developer Console?

Not everyone knows that the Developer Console in CS2 (CSGO) gives you the ability to enable legal Wallhack on custom servers. You can do it by using one of the sv_cheats commands — r_drawothermodels 2. The entire process looks as follows:

1. Check your Game Settings to make sure that you can open your Developer Console
2. Join the server where you want to enable Wallhack
3. Open a Developer Console by pressing the tilde button on your keyboard (~)
4. Type sv_cheats 1 in your Developer Console and press Enter. This will enable the option to turn all kinds of legal cheats in CS2 (CSGO).
5. Type r_drawothermodels 2 in your Developer Console and press Enter
6. Done! Your legal Wallhack is now on. If you want to disable Wallhack mode, type r_drawothermodels 0

Again, you can’t use the Wallhack command (as well as the other sv_cheats commands) in the official matchmaking games. You can only use it on your custom servers, single-player mode, and some community servers with permissions for sv_cheats commands.

Other Wallhack Commands in CS2 (CSGO)

Alternative Wallhack command — mat_wireframe 1-4

Your alternative Wallhack command can also be mat_wireframe (1/2/3/4) — when enabled, you will display all game elements in the wireframe form. This is not a classic Wallhack, but it is an interesting command that allows you to see objects through walls. The mat_wireframe command offers 4 display options; here's what each of them looks like:

• mat_wireframe 1
• mat_wireframe 2
• mat_wireframe 3
• mat_wireframe 4

Skeleton Wallhack command - enable_skeleton_draw 1

There is one more sv_cheats command that allows you to see more than you should — It’s enable_skeleton_draw 1.

With this command enabled, the enemy's skeleton lights up blue and is visible through any obstacles.

Can You Get Banned for Using the Wallhack Command?

There is no such option to get banned for using any sv_cheats commands, which means that all legal Wallhack commands are also save to use. Valve's Anti Cheat (VAC) system accurately checks all the server settings, if the server you are playing on allows using sv_cheats commands, you can rest assured that you will not be banned.

The case is different when you use third-party software to achieve the Wallhack effect. Software programs that allow wallhacking usually cost about $20, and you can buy them from independent developers on various internet forums. Even if you think you have high-quality software that protects you from being banned, remember that Valve's Anti-Cheat system gets constant updates.

That said, you may be punished for using any cheats much later (e.g., a year) after using them. VAC bans are permanent and restrict access to your Steam account on many levels by banning you from playing on official Valve servers or banning you from trading CS2 (CSGO) skins and not having any access to your inventory. So yeah, there are much more fun ways of enhancing your gameplay, such as spinning with our random Counter Strike weapon generator as well as the CS skins randomizer.
