Don't bother trying to change skin files in CS:GO. Valve doesn't like it, and you'll risk getting your account banned if you mess with game files. Just earn or buy skins the legit way!

Changing skin files in CS:GO isn't as straightforward as you might hope, since Valve has strict policies to prevent cheating and maintain fairness. However, you can use custom skins in offline games or on servers that allow it. First, make sure to download skins from a reputable source. Then, place the skin files into the 'csgo' directory within your game installation folder. Remember, this only works for servers that have sv_pure set to 0, allowing custom content. Always double-check server rules and never attempt this on official competitive servers to avoid bans.

I managed to change my skins for local play and it was awesome! Make sure to only do it for fun in offline games or on servers that allow modding. Got some cool screenshots out of it!
