TF2 HUD Exploit - Use 'sv_cheats 1' in Casual! (PATCHED!!!)

A new game-breaking TF2 exploit has emerged that allows you to modify your HUD to gain access to cheat commands. In my opinion, this is the most overpowered exploit in the history of Team Fortress 2, as it is undetectable by VAC and gives players access to a whole plethora of console commands that can be abused in public, community, and official Valve casual servers.

This video is for EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY! I do not endorse using this exploit for advantageous purposes unless you are messing around with friends in a PRIVATE server.

UPDATE 6/21/22:
VALVE ACTUALLY FIXED THIS! Maybe there is hope after all!

The funniest part about the exploit in my opinion is how instead of needing to make a big list of sliders/checkboxes in the hud for each command you can just put sv_cheats into a single checkbox and it'll let you just use the console freely

Very informative video. It scares me to think about how long this has been a thing in the game and people are only now starting to realize it exists. Thank you for bringing awareness to this.

"So, imma tell you how to use this cheat, but don't use it to cheat!"

Fun fact, Cl_pitchup and down could be changed in TFC without sv_cheats enabled. And it made your player model look all sorts on wonky. Snipers were never pleased with that one.

this would be a awesome gun viewmodel without the wallhacks, see-through while also looking cool with the sort of stringed together style

I think it's absolutely ridiculous that they haven't patched this yet. Makes me think that the cause of it is super deep down inside the code of the game, which means they'd need to put in a ton of effort to fix it.

this is game breaking, valve have to do something NOW, this is ridiculous, holy cheats

I can’t wait to set the 2fort cap limit to 999

well it isn't *all* commands, just client commands but it can still be harmful to a clueless player

Imagine booting up a match for casual and the first thing you see is a t-pose heavy flying around the map

[mrchoochooguy]

Imagine using this to spawn Halloween bosses and confuse everyone

Honestly, as much as thanks to your video, now I know how to win all the games is something that I'm not interested in doing. Being able to have this overwhelming advantage over other players takes the fun out of not only them but whoever is using this exploit. The effort put into improving to prevent that Main Spy from making you backstab or learning to position yourself and predict the movements of others, no longer matters with this type of exploits that I hope that Valve will solve it soon, although I think they already sees TF2 as a lost cause.

This exploit is very old, maybe there are other interesant command to abuse

[man-child]

"I'm going to walk you guys through how to perform this exploit, as the more people who not only know about it but who know how to do it, the more likely it is for Valve to step in and fix the issue" YEAH BRO TOTALLY I can already see Valve rushing to fix this and all the other known exploits that people abuse. It's like giving a cupcake to a kid and telling them "I'm going to leave the room now, please do not eat the cupcake :( ". Sure anyone can find how to pull this off somewhere else but why are you making it so damn easy by literally putting a tutorial in the video. This is contributing to the problem.

Its upsetting to think about every time ive been killed by anyone that they could have been cheating like this.

[jackthatistheripper]

So, for 2 months straight everyone could use sv_cheats and do absolutely everything? I'm deeply surprised that i didn't knew that

[WYCKingNothing]

Is it bad that I have so little faith in Valve that the fix I see them doing is disabling all custom huds in casual?
