Crosshairs from a demo

Every player’s crosshair from a match, as they were really using it. A demo records each player’s crosshair code; this reads it out, draws it and gives you the code to paste in the game.

Where to get a demo

FACEIT: open the match room and press Watch demo; it downloads as a .dem.gz, which works as it is. Premier and matchmaking: in the game, Watch → Your matches, download one, and it is a .dem in your Counter-Strike folder under game/csgo/replays. Pro matches have demos on the tournament’s page.

The reader stops three rounds in, once all ten players are known, so it never has to go through the whole file. A crosshair changed later in the match is not seen.
