I like to play Counter-Strike, but I've seen in the videos of other players that they have a more detailed inspection of weapons in the game. Maybe someone on the forum knows how to do this in the game, maybe there are some hotkeys?

What videos did you watch, can you send me a link to them? Maybe there were special builds that have this feature? I downloaded the CS 1.6 CS2 Mod and CS 1.6 Standoff 2 builds from https://all-cs.ru/ and when you press the F button, you can examine the weapons in more detail, and the textures are improved, there are different models of knives. If you find these assemblies on the site, the description also includes YouTube channels with reviews of this assembly and streams, so you can see if you like it before installing it, and another big plus is that you can install any additional mods from the site.
U4GM - Elden Ring: 12 Things to Do Before Entering New Game Plus
Before diving into New Game Plus in Elden Ring, it’s worth taking a moment to tie up loose ends. NG+ ramps up enemy difficulty while letting you keep much of your progress, but once you make the jump, there’s no going back. Here are 12 essential things to do before stepping into your next cycle—ensuring you're properly prepared and not missing out on key Elden Ring items, runes, or story content.
1. Collect Every Legendary Armament
Tracking down all the legendary weapons is not only satisfying but also contributes toward achievement progress. Some of these weapons are easily missable and become locked out once certain bosses are defeated or areas are inaccessible in NG+.
2. Finish NPC Questlines
Many NPCs in Elden Ring have multi-step quests with huge payoffs—be it powerful gear, unique spells, or deep lore. Make sure you've seen through key arcs like Ranni, Fia, and Millicent before moving forward. NG+ resets quest progress.
3. Spend Your Elden Ring Runes Wisely
Before moving on, dump your leftover Elden Ring Runes into stat upgrades or stockpile items like Smithing Stones. Runes are much harder to farm early in NG+, so don’t let them go to waste.
4. Max Out Flask Upgrades
Sacred Tears and Golden Seeds are limited in each playthrough, so now’s the time to make sure your Flask of Crimson Tears and Flask of Cerulean Tears are fully upgraded for the challenges ahead.
5. Upgrade and Organize Your Arsenal
Take a pass through your inventory and upgrade weapons you’ve neglected but might want to experiment with in NG+. Many Elden Ring items shine in different builds—don’t overlook tools like the Pulley Bow or Night-and-Flame Sword.
6. Grab All Map Fragments
Even though map progress resets in NG+, collecting every fragment now will give you a mental roadmap and make navigating the Lands Between easier on your next run.
7. Visit Every Evergaol
These one-on-one duels not only sharpen your PvE skills but often reward rare Ashes of War and weapons. If you’ve been skipping them, now’s the time to take them on while the world is still open.
8. Unlock All Sites of Grace
Having a fully unlocked fast travel network makes item hunting, co-op summoning, or PvP dueling much smoother. It’s especially useful if you plan to farm specific bosses or regions for rare Elden Ring items.
9. Beat Optional Bosses
From Dragonlord Placidusax to Mohg, Lord of Blood, several optional bosses provide both challenge and some of the most potent loot in the game. Plus, it’s great practice for what NG+ will throw at you.
10. Try Out Different Builds
Use Larval Tears to respec and experiment with different playstyles—faith, dexterity, strength, or even arcane. This is a great time to test builds before NG+ locks you into long-term decisions.
11. Stock Up on Consumables
Buy out merchants and vendors who carry rare consumables or crafting materials. In NG+, you'll face stronger enemies from the start, and having a full stockpile of items like Preserving Boluses or Throwing Daggers can make a huge difference.
12. Backup Your Save
If you’re on PC or playing offline, consider making a backup of your save file. It’s a great way to preserve your current progress in case you want to revisit a specific point without starting from scratch again.
Before you begin again, take a moment to prepare properly. With all your Elden Ring items upgraded, runes spent wisely, and world events wrapped up, New Game Plus becomes less of a grind and more of a playground for experimentation. Whether you’re chasing trophies or simply want to test your mettle against tougher foes, this checklist will help you hit the ground running.
