How to Remove Blood in CS:GO?

It is a very frequent question that players face with. Let’s dive into details and find out why it is necessary.

At first we should understand “Why do we need to turn off some default settings”?

It is pretty simple:

• removal of blood on the walls does not distract a person from looking for the opponent, you do not need to focus on such little things every time.
• also having no blood on the walls does not steal the "precious FPS” which is very important for players with low-end PCs (you can learn more about increasing FPS here.)

How to remove blood in CS:GO?

It turns out to be a win-win situation and it means that we have to solve the problem. The solution of the problem seems to be very easy – console command r_cleardecals.

At any moment of the game, when you need it, put in the console command and the map gets cleared of the players’ activity: blood stains and bullet holes disappear.

But this console command has one disadvantage: it only removes the consequences, it does not prevent them. It means that in a couple of minutes the map will be “dirty” again. Entering this command all the time during a match is not very convenient and it becomes a problem. Even this kind of problem has a solution - binding this console command!

How to bind a console command for blood removal forever?

To bind the console command for clearing walls from blood and bullets, you should do the following steps:

• put in: bind "any free key of the keyboard" "r_cleardecals"

Now while pressing any convenient button you may clear the map from blood at any moment of the game.

However, this solution is not perfect. If you have to press the button and get distracted for this action, you may lose concentration during the game.

It means that you have to make this bind linked to the very button in the game that will give us a chance to use it with every press of the button without wasting time on extra pressing.

• put in bind "mouse1" "+attack;r_cleardecals"

In this option, one of the most common buttons is chosen: the left button on a mouse - a button of shooting, but there are a couple of buttons suitable for the bind: “W” - running “Shift” - walking.

Therefore, with each shooting or stabbing attack on the opponent blood stains will be removed. To increase the chance of blood disappearance, you can bind all frequently used buttons.

How to remove violence in the game?

Lots of countries prohibit display of violence in similar games. The developers of CS:GO could not ignore this moment, otherwise they would lose an immense segment of players (for example, China).

To make blood stains stop displaying on the screen, you can use a command that can block all violence in the game and make an opponent give up if dead.

• +violence_hblood 0 - this team should be input in the running settings of CS:GO. After entering the command, every time when you run the game the parameter will be applied and change the settings.

The result of this manipulation lies in the fact that blood will not appear if you shoot the opponent and after death, they will give up and lie down on the ground.

Turning off the function is as simple as it is to turn it on. You just should remove the command from the parameters and restart the game.

Takeaway

So, there are two options of how you can remove blood in CS:GO. It is up to you to decide which of them you like more, but both of them have their own advantages:

• you don’t need to get distracted by blood stain that may match with players’ silhouettes in the distance;
• FPS increases due to lack of blood and bullet holes depiction;
• and from aesthetics perspective.
