Counter-Strike 2 Workshop Tools

The Counter-Strike 2 Workshop Tools is a set of software utilities available as a free download for Counter-Strike 2 that allow you to create items for inclusion in the Steam Workshop and your own custom game addons, such as new maps.

Note:Looking for Maps Workshop? See this page.

Note:The Animgraph Editor is not in CS:2 and it is unknown if they will be added. Map scripting currently exists in a limited form called source_ts, which Valve uses to implement game modes such as gun game.

Note:A small amount of the pages here are placeholders taken from Half-Life: Alyx Workshop Tools for now.
