How to Use the Command cl_show_team_equipment

Here is how you can use this command to turn off the feature that permanently displays the names and equipment of your teammates:

  1. Press the key “~” to launch the console
  2. Type in the command -cl_show_team_equipment
  3. Press enter
  4. Enjoy a decluttered screen and view for a better gaming experience

The effect of the command will be instantly, and because it’s not cheat-protected, you do not need to enter the sv_cheats commands before it.

Furthermore, you can use this command on competitive matches, offline matches and private servers without restrictions.

Now, if you are wondering how to show team equipment in CSGO again, simply insert the command like this:

  1. Press the key “~” to launch the console
  2. Type in the command +cl_show_team_equipment
  3. Press enter

As you can see, the “-” symbol disables the display of names and equipment, whereas the symbol “+” enables it.

How to Bind the Command cl_show_team_equipment

If you want to enable and disable this feature at will, then you should bind the command to a key. All you need to do is to launch the console and then type in this:

alias disablethisnow disablethisnow 1

alias disablethisnow 1 “+cl_show_team_equipment; alias disablethisnow  disablethisnow 2”

alias disablethisnow 2 “-cl_show_team_equipment; alias disablethisnow  disablethisnow 1”

bind “key” “disablethisnow” 

Therefore, if you want to bind it to the key “Z”, then all you need to do is to replace the “key” for Z, and the last portion of the code would look like this: bind Z “disablethisnow”. 

Finally, the code would look like this:

alias disablethisnow disablethisnow 1

alias disablethisnow 1 “+cl_show_team_equipment; alias disablethisnow  disablethisnow 2”

alias disablethisnow 2 “-cl_show_team_equipment; alias disablethisnow  disablethisnow 1”

bind Z “disablethisnow” 

Just press enter and the bind will be finished, ready for you to use it at will on your matches.
