Community creator eltorga rebuilt the pixelated green pointer from the old Counter Strike 1.6 menus as an animated skin, and it looks just like you remember. If you spent years in de_dust lobbies, gliding this thing across your desktop hits a very specific nostalgia. It runs as a live desktop cursor via Mouse X on Steam, a one-time $2.99 app with a free demo, and every Workshop skin like this one is included.
How do I install the Counter Strike 1.6 Cursor cursor?
Install Mouse X from Steam, then subscribe to the skin on its Workshop page (or inside the app). Mouse X downloads it and you can apply it with one click. No .cur files, no Control Panel digging.
Does it work on Windows 11?
Yes. Mouse X supports Windows 10 and 11, uses very little memory and CPU, and doesn’t hook or inject into games or other apps, so it runs quietly alongside everything else.
Is this cursor free?
The skin itself is free, like everything on the Mouse X Workshop. Mouse X is $2.99 on Steam, and the free demo lets you try custom cursors before buying.
This cursor skin was created and shared by a member of the Mouse X community on the Steam Workshop.
