The skin pattern in CS:GO is determined by a combination of the skin's seed and the float value.

The float value affects the appearance of a skin in CS:GO by changing the amount of wear and tear on the skin. A lower float value will make the skin look newer and more pristine, while a higher float value will make it look more worn and battle scarred.

Q: What are souvenir skins in CS:GO?

Souvenir skins in CS:GO are special edition skins that are dropped during professional tournaments and events. They have unique designs and are highly sought after by collectors and fans.


Why are the colors not matching exactly in-game?

All the skins are rendered in a custom rendering implementation which does not apply lighting like the game does. This allows the pattern to be viewed without any reflections.


Why are all the knifes "upside down"?

The knifes are rendered in the orientation you would see them in game. Most websites show the knife in the opposite direction, but I thought it would be better if they are in the exact orientation you would see them on your screen while playing the game. It allows you to view the pattern how it would be in game.
