Quick guide and practical context

CS2 HUD color map

This tool maps cl_hud_color values to friendly names: default, white, light blue, blue, purple, red, orange, yellow, green, aqua, and pink.

If value behavior changes after updates, we flag it for validation before you lock it into autoexec.

Color choice for competitive readability

Best color depends on map contrast and monitor brightness. Test on bright and dark maps before locking your setup.

HUD color commands are client-side and generally safe for competitive play, with no gameplay automation.
