List

Here is a list of useful launch options for CSPromod. You may find a complete list on Valve's wiki.

• -autoconfig - Restores video and performance settings to default for the current hardware detected. Ignores settings inside any .cfg files until this parameter is removed.
• -console - Starts the game with the developer console enabled.
• -refresh <rate> - Sets the rate at which your monitor refreshes. Ex: -refresh 75 NOTE: Do not set the refresh rate higher than your monitor's max refresh rate.
• -dxlevel <level> - Forces a specific DirectX version when launching the game. For people who encounter issues with flashes (often with ATI cards), try changing this value to see if it makes a difference.

Possible values are:

  -dxlevel 80 - DirectX 8.0
  -dxlevel 81 - DirectX 8.1
  -dxlevel 90 - DirectX 9.0b
  -dxlevel 95 - DirectX 9.0c
  -dxlevel 98 - DirectX 9.0c on DX10 hardware (Shader Model 4.0) and higher

• -fullscreen or -full - Forces the game to run in fullscreen mode.
• -window or -sw or -startwindowed or -windowed - Forces the game to start in windowed mode.
• -noborder - When used with the game set to windowed mode, will make the game act as if in fullscreen mode (no window border). It should make ALT+TABbing faster.
• -w <width> or -width <width> - Forces the game to start with resolution set to <width>. Ex: -w 1024
• -h <height> or -height <height>- Forces the game to start with resolution set to <height>. Ex: -h 768
