Workshop Maps

Install and play custom community maps on your CKRAS CS2 server.
Quick Start: Find a Workshop ID → use !wadd [id] → switch with !wmap [mapname]

Workshop Maps let you install and play community-made maps on your CS2 Gameserver. With CKRAS, you can install custom maps directly via commands or from the webpanel workflow.

Recommended: Use CKRAS BOT and MatchZy for the easiest Workshop workflow on CS2.

Quick Start

  1. Find the Workshop map ID on Steam
  2. Install the map with !wadd [id]
  3. List installed maps with !wlist
  4. Change to the map with !wmap [mapname]
  5. Join and play

You can also use !workshop to display the available Workshop commands in-game.

Install Maps

To install a Workshop map, first find its Workshop ID on Steam.

Then use one of these commands:

!wadd [id] or !rcon host_workshop_map [id]

If you use CSS, you can also use:

css_rcon host_workshop_map [id]

Recommended: Use the CKRAS BOT command !wadd [id] whenever possible.

Examples

!rcon host_workshop_map 3437809122 de_cache

Workshop Commands

These commands are available for all customers together with the CKRAS BOT.

Command Description
!workshop Lists all available Workshop commands
!wadd [id] Installs a new Workshop map to your server

Accept Map Downloads

In CS2, players may need to confirm the map download if they do not already have the Workshop map installed locally.

Download Map Allow (Workshop) - CS2

If the map is not yet installed on the client, CS2 may ask for confirmation before downloading it.

Switch Maps

Once installed, you can switch to a Workshop map with:

!wmap [mapname]

Example:

!wmap de_cache

Use !wlist first if you want to see all Workshop maps currently installed on your server.

Webpanel

You can also manage Workshop-related server settings through the webpanel.
