How to Load Custom Workshop Maps in Counter Strike 2 Server
Welcome to your guide on loading custom workshop maps to your Counter Strike 2 server! This simple step-by-step process will help you enhance your gaming experience with unique maps created by the community. Before you begin, please note that loading custom maps requires Rcon access. You can refer to our detailed Rcon guide here.
Step-by-Step
Find the workshop map page on the Steam Workshop:
Search for the custom map you want to play on the Steam Workshop. You can browse or use the search function to find your desired map.

Take note of the item ID in the URL:
When you are on the map's page, look at the URL. The item ID is the number at the end of the URL. For example, in
https://steamcommunity.com/workshop/filedetails/?id=3435389750
, the item ID is3435389750
.Connect to the server through Remote Console (Rcon):
Use the Rcon commands to connect to your server. For detailed guidance on this process, please consult our Rcon guide here.
Use the command to load the map:
Once you are connected, use the Rcon command
host_workshop_map ID
, replacingID
with the workshop ID you found earlier. For example, to play the Fall Guys map, you would type:host_workshop_map 3435389750
.

Join the game:
After executing the command, join the game as you normally would. You should be greeted by the exciting custom map!

Troubleshooting:
- If the game is not running when you try to connect to Rcon, the console will not work. Make sure the game server is running before attempting to input commands.
- Some custom maps might require additional files or adjustments. In case the map does not load correctly, check the workshop page for any additional requirements or instructions.
