FAQ lol US
R BASIC FAQ COVERS STANDARD QUESHUNS AN ANZWERS DAT U CUD HAS. 4 LES COMMON MATTERS, PLZ VISIT R EXTENDD FAQ INSTEAD.
BEFORE TRYIN 2 UNDERSTAND WUT ASF IZ, U SHUD MAK SURE DAT U UNDERSTAND WUT STEAM CARDZ R, AN HOW 2 OBTAIN THEM, WHICH IZ NICELY DESCRIBD IN OFFISHUL FAQ HER.
IN SHORT, STEAM CARDZ R COLLECTIBLE ITEMS DAT URE ELIGIBLE 4 WHEN OWNIN PARTICULAR GAME, AN CAN BE USD 4 CRAFTIN BADGEZ, SELLIN ON STEAM MARKIT OR ANY OTHR PURPOSE OV UR CHOICE.
CORE POINTS R STATD ONCE AGAIN HER, CUZ PEEPS IN GENERAL DOAN WANTS 2 AGREE WIF THEM AN PREFR 2 PRETEND DAT DOSE DO NOT EXIST:
- U NED 2 OWN TEH GAME ON UR STEAM AKOWNT IN ORDR 2 BE ELIGIBLE 4 ANY CARD DROPS FRUM IT. PPLZ SHARIN DOESNT COUNT.
- UR GAME CANT BE MARKD AS PRIVATE, ASF WILL AUTOMATICALLY SKIP SUCH GAMEZ DURIN FARMIN.
- U CANT FARM TEH GAME INFINITELY, EVRY GAME HAS FIXD NUMBR OV CARD DROPS. ONCE U DROP ALL OV THEM (AROUND HALF OV TEH FULL SET), TEH GAME IZ NOT CANDIDATE 4 FARMIN NOMORE. IT DOESNT MATTR WHETHR UVE SOLD, TRADD, CRAFTD OR FORGOT WUT HAPPEND 2 DOSE CARDZ UVE OBTAIND, ONCE U RUN OUT OV CARD DROPS, TEH GAME IZ FINISHD.
- U CANT DROP CARDZ FRUM F2P GAMEZ WITHOUT SPENDIN ANY MONEY IN THEM. DIS MEANZ PERMANENTLY F2P GAMEZ LIEK TEAM FORTRES 2 OR DOTA 2. OWNIN F2P GAMEZ DOEZ NOT GRANT U CARD DROPS.
- U CANT DROP CARDZ ON LIMITD ACCOUNTS, REGARDLES OV OWND GAMEZ. IT WUZ POSIBLE IN DA PAST, BUT IZ NO LONGR TEH CASE.
- PAID GAMEZ DAT UVE OBTAIND 4 FREE DURIN PROMOSHUN CANT BE FARMD 4 CARD DROPS, REGARDLES OV WUT IZ DISPLAYD ON TEH STORE PAEG. IT WUZ POSIBLE IN DA PAST, BUT IZ NO LONGR TEH CASE.
SO AS U CAN C, STEAM CARDZ R AWARDD 2 U 4 PLAYIN GAME DAT U BUYD, OR F2P GAME DAT UVE PUT MONEY INTO. IF U PULAY SUCH GAME LONG ENOUGH, ALL CARDZ 4 DAT GAME WILL EVENTUALLY DROP 2 UR INVENTORY, MAKIN IT POSIBLE 4 U 2 COMPLETE BADGE (AFTR OBTAININ TEH REMAININ HALF OV TEH SET), SELL THEM, OR DO WHATEVR ELSE U WANTS.
NAO DAT WEVE EXPLAIND TEH BASICS OV STEAM, WE CAN EXPLAIN ASF. TEH PROGRAM ITSELF IZ QUITE COMPLEX 2 UNDERSTAND FULLY, SO INSTEAD OV DIGGIN INTO ALL TEH TECHNICAL DETAILS, WELL OFFR VRY SIMPLIFID EXPLANASHUN BELOW.
ASF LOGS INTO UR STEAM AKOWNT THRU R BUILT-IN, CUSTOM STEAM CLIENT IMPLEMENTASHUN USIN UR PROVIDD CREDENTIALS. AFTR SUCCESFULLY LOGGIN IN, IT PARSEZ UR BADGEZ IN ORDR 2 FIND GAMEZ DAT R AVAILABLE 4 FARMIN (X CARD DROPS REMAININ). AFTR PARSIN ALL PAGEZ AN CONSTRUCTIN FINAL LIST OV GAMEZ DAT R AVAILABLE, ASF CHOOSEZ MOST EFFICIENT FARMIN ALGORITHM AN STARTS TEH PROCES. TEH PROCES DEPENDZ UPON CHOSEN CARDZ FARMIN ALGORITHM BUT USUALLY IT CONSISTS OV PLAYIN ELIGIBLE GAME AN PERIODICALLY (PLUS ON EACH ITEM DROP) CHECKIN IF GAME IZ FULLY FARMD ALREADY - IF YEZ, ASF CAN PROCED WIF TEH NEXT TITLE, USIN TEH SAME PROCEDURE, TIL ALL GAMEZ R FULLY FARMD.
KEEP IN MIND DAT EXPLANASHUN ABOOV IZ SIMPLIFID AN DOESNT DESCRIBE DOZEN OV EXTRA FEATUREZ AN FUNCSHUNS DAT ASF OFFERS. VISIT TEH REST OV R WIKI IF U WANTS 2 KNOE EVRY ASF DETAIL. I TRID 2 MAK IT SIMPLE ENOUGH 2 UNDERSTAND 4 EVRYBODY, WITHOUT BRINGIN IN TECHNICAL DETAILS - ADVANCD USERS R ENCOURAGD 2 DIG DEEPR.
NAO AS PROGRAM - ASF OFFERS SUM MAGIC. FIRSTY, IT DOESNT HAS 2 DOWNLOAD ANY OV UR GAME FILEZ, IT CAN PULAY GAMEZ RITE AWAY. SECONDLY, IZ ENTIRELY INDEPENDENT OV UR NORMAL STEAM CLIENT - U DOAN NED 2 HAS STEAM CLIENT RUNNIN OR EVEN INSTALLD AT ALL. THIRDLY, IZ AUTOMATD SOLUSHUN - WHICH MEANZ DAT ASF AUTOMATICALLY DOEZ EVRYTHIN BEHIND UR BAK, WITHOUT NED OV TELLIN IT WUT 2 DO - WHICH SAVEZ U HASLE AN TIEM. LASTLY, IT DOESNT HAS 2 TRICK STEAM NETWORK BY PROCES EMULASHUN (WHICH E.G. IDLE MASTAH IZ USIN), AS IT CAN SPEEK WIF IT DIRECTLY. IZ ALSO SUPR FAST AN LIGHTWEIGHT, BEAN AN AMAZIN SOLUSHUN 4 EVRYBODY HOO WANTS 2 GIT CARDZ EASILY WITHOUT MUTCH HASLE - IT COMEZ ESPECIALLY USEFUL BY LEAVIN IT RUNNIN IN DA BAKGROUND WHILE DOIN SOMETHIN ELSE, OR EVEN PLAYIN IN OFFLINE MODE.
ALL OV TEH ABOOV IZ NICE, BUT ASF ALSO HAS SUM TECHNICAL LIMITASHUNS DAT R ENFORCD BY STEAM - WE CANT FARM GAMEZ DAT U DOAN OWN, WE CANT FARM GAMEZ FOREVR IN ORDR 2 GIT EXTRA DROPS PAST TEH ENFORCD LIMIT, AN WE CANT FARM GAMEZ WHILE URE PLAYIN. ALL OV DAT SHUD BE "LOGICAL", CONSIDERIN TEH WAI HOW ASF WERKZ, BUT IZ NICE 2 NOWT DAT ASF DOESNT HAS SUPR-POWERS AN WONT DO SOMETHIN DAT IZ FYSICALLY IMPOSIBLE, SO KEEP DAT IN MIND - IZ BASICALLY TEH SAME AS IF U TOLD SOMEONE 2 LOG IN ON UR AKOWNT FRUM ANOTHR PC AN FARM DOSE GAMEZ 4 U.
SO 2 SUM UP - ASF IZ PROGRAM DAT HELPS U DROP DOSE CARDZ URE ELIGIBLE 4, WITHOUT MUTCH HASLE. IT ALSO OFFERS SEVERAL OTHR FUNCSHUNS, BUT LETS STICK 2 DIS WAN 4 NAO.
YEZ. ASF REQUIREZ UR AKOWNT CREDENTIALS IN DA SAME WAI AS OFFISHUL STEAM CLIENT DOEZ, AS IZ USIN TEH SAME METHOD 4 STEAM NETWORK INTERACSHUN. DIS HOWEVR DOESNT MEEN DAT U HAS 2 PUT UR AKOWNT CREDENTIALS IN ASF CONFIGS, U CAN KEEP USIN ASF WIF null/EMPTY SteamLogin AN/OR SteamPassword, AN INPUT DAT DATA ON EACH ASF RUN, WHEN REQUIRD (AS WELL AS SEVERAL OTHR LOGIN CREDENTIALS, REFR 2 CONFIGURASHUN). DIS WAI UR DETAILS R NOT SAVD ANYWHERE, BUT OV COURSE ASF CANT AUTOSTART WITHOUT UR HALP. ASF ALSO OFFERS SEVERAL OTHR WAYS OV INCREASIN UR SECURITY, SO FEELZ FREE 2 READ DAT PART OV TEH WIKI IF URE ADVANCD USR. IF URE NOT, AN U DOAN WANTS 2 PUT UR AKOWNT CREDENTIALS IN ASF CONFIGS, DEN SIMPLY DOAN DO DAT, AN INSTEAD INPUT THEM AS-NEEDD WHEN ASF ASKZ 4 THEM.
KEEP IN MIND DAT ASF TOOL IZ 4 UR PERSONAL USE AN UR CREDENTIALS R NEVR LEAVIN UR COMPUTR. URE ALSO NOT SHARIN THEM WIF ANYBODY, WHICH FULFILLS STEAM TOS - VRY IMPORTANT TING DAT LOTZ DA PEEPS FORGET BOUT. URE NOT SENDIN UR DETAILS 2 R SERVERS OR SUM THIRD-PARTY, ONLY DIRECTLY 2 STEAM SERVERS OPERATD BY VALVE. WE DOAN KNOE UR CREDENTIALS AN WERE ALSO UNABLE 2 RECOVR THEM 4 U, REGARDLES IF U PUT THEM IN UR CONFIGS OR NOT.
AS LONG AS IT TAKEZ - SRSLY. EVRY GAME HAS DIFFERENT FARMIN DIFFICULTY SET BY DEVELOPR/PUBLISHR, AN IZ TOTALLY UP 2 THEM HOW FAST CARDZ R BEAN DROPPD. MAJORITY OV TEH GAMEZ FOLLOW 1 DROP PER 30 MINUTEZ OV PLAYIN, BUT THAR R ALSO GAMEZ REQUIRIN FRUM U 2 PULAY EVEN SEVERAL HOURS BEFORE DROPPIN CARD. IN ADDISHUN 2 DAT, UR AKOWNT CUD BE RESTRICTD FRUM RECEIVIN CARD DROPS FRUM GAMEZ U DIDNT PULAY 4 ENOUGH TIEM YET, AS STATD IN PERFORMANCE SECSHUN. DO NOT ATTEMPT 2 MAK GUESEZ HOW LONG ASF SHUD FARM GIVEN TITLE - IZ NOT UP 2 U, NEITHR ASF 2 DECIDE. THAR IZ NOTHIN U CAN DO 2 MAK IT FASTR, AN THAR IZ NO "BUG" RELATD 2 CARDZ NOT BEAN DROPPD IN TIEMLY FASHION - U DO NOT CONTROL CARDZ DROPPIN PROCES, NEITHR DOEZ ASF. IN DA BEST CASE, ULL RECEIV AVERAGE OV 1 DROP PER 30 MINUTEZ. IN DA WURST CASE, U WONT RECEIV ANY CARD EVEN 4 4 HOURS SINCE STARTIN ASF. BOTH OV DOSE SITUASHUNS R NORMAL AN COVERD IN R PERFORMANCE SECSHUN.
TEH ONLY TING WHICH HEAVILY AFFECTS SPED OV FARMIN IZ SELECTD CARDZ FARMIN ALGORITHM 4 UR BOT INSTANCE. EVRYTHIN ELSE HAS NEGLIGIBLE EFFECT AN WILL NOT MAK FARMIN FASTR, WHILE SUM ACSHUNS SUCH AS LAUNCHIN ASF PROCES SEVERAL TIEMS WILL EVEN MAK IT WORSE. IF U RLY HAS AN URGE OV MAKIN EVRY SINGLE SECOND FRUM FARMIN PROCES, DEN ASF ALLOWS U 2 FINE-TUNE SUM CORE FARMIN VARIABLEZ SUCH AS FarmingDelay - ALL OV THEM R EXPLAIND IN CONFIGURASHUN. HOWEVR, AS I SED, TEH EFFECT IZ NEGLIGIBLE, AN CHOOSIN PROPR CARDZ FARMIN ALGORITHM 4 GIVEN AKOWNT IZ WAN AN TEH ONLY CRUSHUL CHOICE DAT CAN HEAVILY AFFECT SPED OV FARMIN, EVRYTHIN ELSE IZ PURE COSMETIC. INSTEAD OV WORRYIN BOUT FARMIN SPED, JUS LAUNCH ASF AN LET IT DO ITZ JOB - I CAN ASSURE U DAT IZ DOIN IT IN DA MOST EFFECTIV WAI I CUD COME UP WIF. TEH LES U CARE, TEH MOAR U WILL BE SATISFID.
ASF GIVEZ U ROUGH APPROXIMASHUN BASD ON NUMBR OV CARDZ U NED 2 DROP, AN UR CHOSEN ALGORITHM - DIS AR TEH NOWHERE CLOSE 2 TEH AKSHUL TIEM DAT U WILL SPEND ON FARMIN, WHICH IZ USUALLY LONGR THAN DIS, AS ASF ASSUMEZ BEST CASE ONLY, AN IGNOREZ ALL STEAM NETWORK QUIRKZ, INTERNET DISCONNECSHUNS, OVERLOAD OV STEAM SERVERS AN LIKEWIZE. IT SHUD BE SEEN ONLY AS GENERAL INDICATOR HOW LONG U CAN EXPECT ASF 2 BE FARMIN, VRY OFTEN IN BEST CASE, AS AKSHUL TIEM WILL DIFFR, EVEN SIGNIFICANTLY IN SUM CASEZ. LIEK POINTD OUT ABOOV, DO NOT TRY 2 GUES HOW LONG GIVEN GAME WILL BE FARMD, IZ NOT UP 2 U, NEITHR ASF 2 DECIDE.
ASF IZ C# PROGRAM DAT REQUIREZ WERKIN IMPLEMENTASHUN OV .NET. ANDROID BECAME VALID PLATFORM STARTIN WIF .NET 6.0, HOWEVR, THAR IZ CURRENTLY MAJOR BLOCKR IN MAKIN ASF HAPPEN ON ANDROID DUE 2 LACK OV ASP.NET RUNTIME AVAILABLE ON IT. EVEN THOUGH THAR ISNT NATIV OPSHUN AVAILABLE, THAR R PROPR AN WERKIN BUILDZ 4 GNU/LINUX ON ARM ARCHITECCHUR, SO IZ TOTALLY POSIBLE 2 USE SOMETHIN LIEK LINUX DEPLOY 4 INSTALLIN LINUX, DEN USIN ASF IN SUCH LINUX CHROOT AS USUAL.
WHEN/IF ALL ASF REQUIREMENTS R SATISFID, WELL CONSIDR RELEASIN AN OFFISHUL ANDROID BUILD.
NO, DIS AR TEH AGAINST STEAM TOS AN VALVE CLEARLY STATD DAT WIF LAST WAVE OV COMMUNITY BANZ 4 FARMIN TF2 ITEMS. ASF IZ STEAM CARDZ FARMIN PROGRAM, NOT GAME ITEMS FARMR - IT DOESNT HAS ANY CAPABILITY OV FARMIN GAME ITEMS, AN IZ NOT PLANND 2 ADD SUCH FEACHUR IN DA FUCHUR, EVR, MAINLY CUZ OV VIOLATIN STEAM TERMS OV USE. PLZ DO NOT ASK BOUT DIS - TEH BEST U CAN GIT IZ REPORT FRUM SUM SALTY USR AN U HAVIN PROBLEMS. TEH SAME GOEZ 4 ALL OTHR TYPEZ OV FARMIN, SUCH AS FARMIN DROPS FRUM CS:GO BROADCASTS. ASF IZ FOCUSIN ON STEAM TRADIN CARDZ EXCLUSIVELY.
YEZ, THRU SEVERAL DIFFERENT WAYS. IF U WANTS 2 ALTR TEH DEFAULT ORDR OV FARMIN KEW, DEN THAZ WUT FarmingOrders BOT CONFIGURASHUN PROPERTY CAN BE USD 4. IF U WANTS 2 MANUALLY BLACKLIST GIVEN GAMEZ FRUM BEAN FARMD AUTOMATICALLY, U CAN USE IDLE BLACKLIST WHICH IZ AVAILABLE WIF fb COMMAND. IF UD LIEK 2 FARM EVRYTHIN BUT GIV SUM APPS PRIORITY OVAR EVRYTHIN ELSE, DAT IZ WUT IDLE PRIORITY KEW AVAILABLE WIF fq COMMAND CAN BE USD 4. AN FINALLY, IF U WANTS 2 FARM SPECIFIC GAMEZ OV UR CHOICE ONLY, DEN U CAN DECLARE FarmPriorityQueueOnly IN BOTS FarmingPreferences IN ORDR 2 ACHIEVE DIS, TOGETHR WIF ADDIN UR SELECTD APPS 2 IDLE PRIORITY KEW.
IN ADDISHUN 2 MANAGIN AUTOMATIC CARDZ FARMIN MODULE WHICH WUZ DESCRIBD ABOOV, U CAN ALSO SWITCH ASF 2 MANUAL FARMIN MODE WIF play COMMAND, OR USE SUM OTHR MISC EXTERNAL SETTINGS SUCH AS GamesPlayedWhileIdle BOT CONFIGURASHUN PROPERTY.
YEZ, ASF ALLOWS U 2 DO DAT THRU AT LEAST SEVERAL WAYS.
TEH BEST WAI 2 ACHIEVE DAT IZ 2 MAK USE OV GamesPlayedWhileIdle CONFIGURASHUN PROPERTY, WHICH WILL PULAY UR CHOSEN APPIDZ WHEN ASF HAS NO CARDZ 2 FARM. IF UD LIEK 2 PULAY UR GAMEZ ALL TEH TIEM, EVEN IF U DO HAS CARD DROPS FRUM OTHR GAMEZ, DEN U CAN COMBINE IT WIF FarmPriorityQueueOnly, SO ASF WILL FARM ONLY DOSE GAMEZ 4 CARD DROPS DAT U EXPLICITLY SET, OR FarmingPausedByDefault, WHICH WILL CAUSE CARDZ FARMIN MODULE 2 BE PAUSD TIL U UNPAUSE IT YOURSELF.
ALTERNATIVELY, U CAN MAK USE OV TEH play COMMAND, WHICH WILL CAUSE ASF 2 PULAY UR SELECTD GAMEZ. HOWEVR, KEEP IN MIND DAT play SHUD BE USD ONLY 4 GAMEZ U WANTS 2 PULAY TEMPORARILY, AS IZ NOT PERSISTENT STATE, CAUSIN ASF 2 REVERT BAK 2 DEFAULT STATE E.G. UPON DISCONNECSHUN FRUM STEAM NETWORK. THEREFORE, WE RECOMMEND U 2 USE GamesPlayedWhileIdle, UNLES U INDED WANTS 2 START UR SELECTD GAMEZ JUS 4 SHORT TIEM PERIOD, AN DEN REVERT BAK 2 GENERAL FLOW.
IM LINUX / MACOS USR, WILL ASF FARM GAMEZ DAT R NOT AVAILABLE 4 MAH OS? WILL ASF FARM 64-BIT GAMEZ WHEN IM RUNNIN IT ON 32-BIT OS?
YEZ, ASF IZ NOT EVEN BOTHERIN WIF DOWNLOADIN AKSHUL GAME FILEZ, SO IT WILL WERK WIF ALL UR LICENSEZ TID 2 UR STEAM AKOWNT, REGARDLES OV ANY PLATFORM OR TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS. IT SHUD ALSO WERK 4 GAMEZ TID 2 SPECIFIC REGION (REGION-LOCKD GAMEZ) EVEN WHEN URE NOT IN DA MATCHIN REGION, ALTHOUGH WE DOAN GUARANTEE DAT (IT WERKD LAST TIEM WE TRID).
TEH ONLY SIMILARITY IZ TEH GENERAL PURPOSE OV BOTH PROGRAMS, WHICH IZ FARMIN STEAM GAMEZ IN ORDR 2 RECEIV CARD DROPS. EVRYTHIN ELSE, INCLUDIN TEH AKSHUL FARMIN METHOD, PROGRAM STRUCCHUR, FUNCSHUNALITY, COMPATIBILITY, USD ALGORITHMS, ESPECIALLY TEH SOURCE CODE ITSELF, IZ ENTIRELY DIFFERENT AN DOSE 2 PROGRAMS HAS NOTHIN COMMON WIF EACH OTHR, EVEN TEH CORE FOUNDASHUN - IM IZ RUNNIN ON .NET FRAMEWORK, ASF ON .NET (CORE). ASF WUZ CREATD 2 SOLVE IM ISSUEZ DAT WUZ NOT POSIBLE 2 SOLVE WIF SIMPLE CODE EDIT - DIS AR TEH Y ASF WUZ WRITTEN FRUM SCRATCH, WITHOUT USIN SINGLE CODE LINE OR EVEN GENERAL IDEA FRUM IM, CUZ DAT CODE AN DOSE IDEAS WUZ ENTIRELY FLAWD 2 BEGIN WIF. IM AN ASF R LIEK WINDOWS AN LINUX - BOTH R OPERATIN SISTEMS AN BOTH CAN BE INSTALLD ON UR PC, BUT THEY SHARE ALMOST NOTHIN WIF EACH OTHR, APART FRUM SERVIN TEH SIMILAR PURPOSE.
DIS AR TEH ALSO Y U SHOULDNT COMPARE ASF 2 IM BASD ON IM EXPECTASHUNS. U SHUD TREAT ASF AN IM AS ENTIRELY INDEPENDENT PROGRAMS WIF THEIR OWN EXCLUSIV SETS OV FEATUREZ. SUM OV THEM INDED OVERLAP AN U CAN FIND PARTICULAR FEACHUR IN BOTH OV THEM, BUT VRY RARELY, AS ASF IZ SERVIN ITZ PURPOSE WIF ENTIRELY DIFFERENT APPROACH COMPARD 2 IM.
YEZ. ASF IZ MUTCH MOAR RELIABLE AN INCLUDEZ LOTZ DA BUILT-IN FUNCSHUNS DAT R CRUSHUL REGARDLES OV TEH WAI HOW U FARM, DAT IM SIMPLY DOESNT OFFR.
ASF HAS PROPR LOGIC 4 UNRELEASD GAMEZ - IM WILL ATTEMPT 2 FARM GAMEZ DAT HAS CARDZ ADDD ALREADY, EVEN IF THEY WUZ NOT RELEASD YET. OV COURSE, IZ NOT POSIBLE 2 FARM DOSE GAMEZ TIL RELEASE DATE, SO UR FARMIN PROCES WILL BE STUCK. DIS WILL REQUIRE U 2 EITHR ADD IT 2 TEH BLACKLIST, WAIT 4 RELEASE, OR SKIP MANUALLY. NEITHR OV DOSE SOLUSHUNS IZ GUD, AN ALL OV THEM REQUIRE UR ATTENSHUN - ASF AUTOMATICALLY SKIPS FARMIN OV UNRELEASD GAMEZ (TEMPORARILY), AN RETURNS BAK 2 THEM LATR WHEN THEY R, COMPLETELY AVOIDIN TEH PROBLEM AN DEALIN WIF IT EFFICIENTLY.
ASF ALSO HAS PROPR LOGIC OV SERIEZ VIDEOS. THAR R LOTZ DA VIDEOS ON STEAM DAT HAS CARDZ, YET R ANNOUNCD WIF WRONG appID ON TEH BADGEZ PAEG, SUCH AS DOUBLE FINE ADVENCHUR - IM WILL FALSELY FARM WRONG appID, WHICH WILL YIELD NO DROPS AN PROCES BEAN STUCK. ONCE AGAIN, ULL NED 2 EITHR BLACKLIST IT OR SKIP MANUALLY, BOTH REQUIRIN UR ATTENSHUN. ASF AUTOMATICALLY DISCOVERS PROPR appID 4 FARMIN WHICH DOEZ RESULT IN CARD DROPS.
IN ADDISHUN 2 DAT, ASF IZ MUTCH MOAR STABLE AN RELIABLE WHEN IT COMEZ 2 NETWORK PROBLEMS AN STEAM QUIRKZ - IT WERKZ MOST OV TEH TIEM AN DOESNT REQUIRE UR ATTENSHUN AT ALL ONCE CONFIGURD, WHILE IM OFTEN BREAKZ 4 LOTZ DA PEEPS, REQUIREZ EXTRA FIXEZ OR SIMPLY DOESNT WERK REGARDLES. IZ ALSO FULLY DEPENDENT ON UR STEAM CLIENT, WHICH MEANZ DAT IT CANT WERK WHEN UR STEAM CLIENT IZ EXPERIENCIN ANY SERIOUS ISSUEZ. ASF IZ WERKIN PROPERLY AS LONG AS IT CAN CONNECT 2 STEAM NETWORK, AN DOESNT REQUIRE STEAM CLIENT RUNNIN OR EVEN BEAN INSTALLD.
DOSE R 3 VRY IMPORTANT POINTS Y U SHUD CONSIDR USIN ASF, AS THEY DIRECTLY AFFECT EVRYBODY FARMIN STEAM CARDZ AN THAR IZ NOWAI 2 SAY "DIS DOESNT CONSIDR ME", SINCE STEAM MAINTENANCEZ AN QUIRKZ R HAPPENIN 2 EVRYBODY. THAR R DOZEN OV EXTRA LES AN MOAR IMPORTANT REASONS WHICH U CUD LERN BOUT IN DA REST OV TEH FAQ. SO SHORTLY SPEAKIN, YEZ, U SHUD USE ASF EVEN WHEN U DOAN NED ANY EXTRA ASF FEACHUR DAT IZ AVAILABLE WHEN COMPARD 2 IM.
IN ADDISHUN 2 DAT, IM IZ OFFICIALLY DISCONTINUD AN CAN BREAK COMPLETELY IN DA FUCHUR, WITHOUT ANYBODY BOTHERIN 2 FIX IT, CONSIDERIN EXISTENCE OV MUTCH MOAR POWERFUL SOLUSHUNS (NOT ONLY ASF). IM ALREADY DOESNT WERK 4 LOT OV PEEPS, AN DAT NUMBR IZ ONLY GOIN UP, NOT DOWN. U SHUD AVOID USIN OBSOLETE SOFTWARE IN DA FURST PLACE, NOT ONLY IM BUT ALL OTHR DEPRECATD PROGRAMS AS WELL. NO ACTIV MAINTAINR MEANZ DAT NOBODY CAREZ WHETHR IT WERKZ OR NOT AN NOBODY IZ RESPONSIBLE 4 ITZ FUNCSHUNALITY, WHICH IZ CRUSHUL MATTR IN TERMS OV SECURITY. IZ ENOUGH DAT THAR WILL BE CRITICAL BUG CAUSIN AKSHUL PROBLEMS 2 STEAM INFRASTRUCCHUR - WIF NOBODY FIXIN IT, STEAM CAN ISSUE ANOTHR BAN WAVE IN WHICH ULL GIT HIT WITHOUT EVEN BEAN AWARE OV DIS BEAN AN ISSUE, AS ALREADY HAPPEND 2 PEEPS USIN, GUES WUT, OBSOLETE VERSHUN OV ASF.
IT DEPENDZ WUT U CONSIDR "INTERESTIN" 4 U. IF U PLAN 2 FARM MOAR ACCOUNTS THAN WAN DEN TEH ANZWR IZ ALREADY OBVIOUS SINCE ASF ALLOWS U 2 FARM ALL OV THEM WIF WAN SUPERIOR SOLUSHUN, SAVIN RESOURCEZ, HASLE, AN COMPATIBILITY ISSUEZ. HOWEVR, IF URE ASKIN DAT QUESHUN DEN MOST LIKELY U DOAN HAS DIS PARTICULAR NED, SO LETS EVALUATE OTHR BENEFITS DAT APPLY 2 WAN SINGLE AKOWNT USD IN ASF.
FURST AN FOREMOST, U HAS SUM BUILT-IN FEATUREZ MENSHUND ABOOV DAT R CORE 4 FARMIN REGARDLES OV UR END-GOAL, AN VRY OFTEN DAT ALONE IZ ALREADY ENOUGH 2 CONSIDR USIN ASF. BUT U ALREADY KNOE DAT, SO LETS MOOV ONTO SUM MOAR INTERESTIN FEATUREZ:
-
U CAN FARM OFFLINE (
OnlineStatusINOfflineSETTIN). FARMIN OFFLINE MAKEZ IT POSIBLE 4 U 2 SKIP UR STEAM IN-GAME STATUS ENTIRELY, WHICH ALLOWS U 2 FARM WIF ASF WHILE SHOWIN "ONLINE" ON STEAM AT TEH SAME TIEM, WITHOUT UR FRENZ EVEN NOTICIN DAT ASF IZ PLAYIN GAME ON UR BEHALF. DIS AR TEH SUPERIOR FEACHUR, SINCE IT ALLOWS U 2 REMAIN ONLINE IN UR STEAM CLIENT, WHILE NOT ANNOYIN UR FRENZ WIF CONSTANT GAME CHANGEZ, OR MISLEADIN THEM INTO THINKIN DAT URE PLAYIN GAME WHILE IN REALITY URE NOT. DIS POINT ALONE MAKEZ IT WORTHWHILE 2 USE ASF IF U RESPECT UR OWN FRENZ, BUT IZ ONLY TEH BEGINNIN. IZ ALSO NICE 2 NOWT DAT DIS FEACHUR HAS NOTHIN 2 DO WIF STEAM PRIVACY SETTINGS - IF U LAUNCH TEH GAME YOURSELF, DEN ULL PROPERLY SHOW AS IN-GAME 2 UR FRENZ, MAKIN ONLY ASF PART INVISABLE AN NOT AFFECTIN UR AKOWNT AT ALL. -
U CAN SKIP REFUNDABLE GAMEZ (
SkipRefundableGamesIN BOTSFarmingPreferencesFEACHUR). ASF HAS PROPR BUILT-IN LOGIC 4 REFUNDABLE GAMEZ AN U CAN CONFIGURE ASF 2 NOT FARM REFUNDABLE GAMEZ AUTOMATICALLY. DIS ALLOWS U 2 EVALUATE YOURSELF IF UR NEWLY-BUYD GAME FRUM STEAM STORE WUZ WORTH UR MONEY, WITHOUT ASF TRYIN 2 DROP CARDZ FRUM IT AS SOON AS POSIBLE. IF U PULAY IT 4 2+ HOURS, OR 2 WEEKZ PAS SINCE UR PURCHASE, DEN ASF WILL PROCED WID DAT GAME AS IZ NOT REFUNDABLE NOMORE. TIL DEN U HAS FULL CONTROL WHETHR U ENJOY IT OR NOT AN U CAN EASILY REFUND IT IF NEEDD, WITHOUT HAVIN 2 MANUALLY BLACKLIST DAT GAME OR NOT USE ASF 4 ENTIRE DURASHUN. -
U CAN SKIP UNPLAYD GAMEZ (
SkipUnplayedGamesIN BOTSFarmingPreferencesFEACHUR). ASF HAS PROPR BUILT-IN LOGIC 4 HOURS IN GAMEZ AN U CAN CONFIGURE ASF 2 NOT FARM UNPLAYD GAMEZ AUTOMATICALLY. DIS ALLOWS U 2 CONTROL YOURSELF TEH GAMEZ U PULAY AN FARM, WITHOUT HAVIN 2 MANUALLY BLACKLIST ALL OV THEM OR SKIP USIN ASF ENTIRELY. -
U CAN AUTOMATICALLY MARK NEW ITEMS AS RECEIVD (
BotBehaviourOVDismissInventoryNotificationsFEACHUR). FARMIN WIF ASF WILL RESULT IN UR AKOWNT RECEIVIN NEW CARD DROPS. U ALREADY KNOE DAT DIS AR TEH GOIN 2 HAPPEN, SO LET ASF CLEAR DAT USELES NOTIFICASHUN 4 U, ENSURIN DAT ONLY IMPORTANT THINGS WILL RAIZE UR ATTENSHUN. OV COURSE, ONLY IF U WANTS 2. -
U CAN AUTOMATICALLY RECEIV CARDZ FRUM STEAM EVENTS (
AutoSteamSaleEventIN BOTSFarmingPreferencesFEACHUR). ASF ALLOWS U 2 AUTOMATE GOIN THRU DISCOVERY KEW DURIN STEAM SALE, OV COURSE ONLY IF UD LIEK 2 MAK USE OV DAT. DIS SAVEZ ENORMOUS AMOUNT OV TIEM EACH DAI WHILE STEAM SALE IZ ON, AN ENSUREZ DAT ULL NEVR MIS UR DAILY CARD DROPS AGAIN. -
U CAN CUSTOMIZE PREFERRD FARMIN ORDR WIF MOAR AVAILABLE OPSHUNS (
FarmingOrdersFEACHUR). PERHAPS U WANTS 2 FARM UR NEWLY BUYD GAMEZ FURST? OR UR OLDEST ONEZ? ACCORDIN 2 NUMBR OV CARD DROPS? BADGE LEVELS U ALREADY CRAFTD? PLAYD HOURS? ALFABETICALLY? ACCORDIN 2 APPIDZ? OR MAYBE FULLY RANDOM? THAZ ENTIRELY UP 2 U 2 DECIDE. -
ASF CAN HALP U COMPLETE UR SETS (
TradingPreferencesWIFSteamTradeMatcherFEACHUR). WIF BIT MOAR ADVANCD TINKERIN, U CAN CONVERT UR ASF INTO FULLY-FEATURD USR-BOT DAT WILL AUTOMATICALLY ACCEPT STM OFFERS, HELPIN U EACH DAI 2 MATCH UR SETS WITHOUT ANY USR INTERACSHUN. ASF EVEN INCLUDEZ ITZ VRY OWN ASF 2FA MODULE ALLOWIN U 2 IMPORT UR STEAM MOBILE AUTHENTICATOR AN LET U FULLY AUTOMATE TEH ENTIRE PROCES WIF ACCEPTIN CONFIRMASHUNS AS WELL. OR, MAYBE U WANTS 2 ACCEPT MANUALLY AN LET ASF ONLY PREPARE DOSE TRADEZ 4 U? THAZ ONCE AGAIN, FULLY UP 2 U 2 DECIDE. -
ASF CAN REDEEM KEYS IN BAKGROUND 4 U (BAKGROUND GAMEZ REDEEMR FEACHUR). MAYBE U HAS HUNDRD OV KEYS FRUM VARIOUS BUNDLEZ DAT URE 2 LAZY 2 REDEEM YOURSELF, GOIN THRU BUNCH OV WINDOWS AN AGREEIN 2 STEAM TERMS AN CONDISHUNS OVAR AN OVAR AGAIN. Y NOT COPY-PASTE UR LIST OV KEYS INTO ASF AN LET IT DO ITZ JOB? ASF WILL AUTOMATICALLY REDEEM ALL OV DOSE KEYS IN BAKGROUND, PROVIDIN U WIF APPROPRIATE OUTPUT 2 LET U KNOE HOW EACH REDEEM ATTEMPT TURND OUT. MOREOVR, IF U HAS HUNDREDZ OV KEYS, URE GUARANTED 2 GIT RATE-LIMITD BY STEAM SOONR OR LATR, AN ASF ALSO KNOWS BOUT DAT, ITLL PATIENTLY WAIT 4 DA RATE-LIMIT 2 GO AWAY, AN RESUME WER IT LEFT.
WE CUD NAO GO ON AN ON WIF ENTIRE ASF WIKI, POINTIN OUT EVRY SINGLE FEACHUR OV TEH PROGRAM, BUT WE HAS 2 DRAW LINE SOMEWHERE. DIS AR TEH IT, DIS AR TEH LIST OV FEATUREZ DAT U CAN ENJOY AS ASF USR, WER JUS WAN OV DOSE CUD EASILY BE CONSIDERD MAJOR REASON 2 NEVR LOOK BAK, AN WE AKSHULLY LISTD A LOT OV THEM, WIF EVEN MOAR U CAN LERN BOUT ON TEH REST OV R WIKI. AH YEZ, AN WE DIDNT EVEN GO INTO DETAIL WIF THINGS LIEK ASFS API ALLOWIN U 2 SCRIPT UR OWN COMMANDZ, OR AWSUM BOTS MANAGEMENT, SINCE WE WANTD 2 KEEP IT SIMPLE.
YEZ, ALTHOUGH TEH EXPLANASHUN IZ RATHR COMPLICATD.
ON EACH NEW PROCES SPAWND AN TERMINATD ON UR SISTEM, STEAM CLIENT AUTOMATICALLY SENDZ REQUEST CONTAININ ALL OV UR GAMEZ DAT URE CURRENTLY PLAYIN - DIS WAI STEAM NETWORK CAN CALCULATE HOURS AN MAK CARDZ DROP. HOWEVR, STEAM NETWORK COUNTS UR TIEM PLAYD IN 1-SECOND INTERVALS, AN SENDIN NEW REQUEST RESETS TEH CURRENT STATUS. IN OTHR WERDZ, IF U DID SPAWN/KILL NEW PROCES EVRY 0.5 SECOND, UD NEVR DROP ANY CARD CUZ EVRY 0.5 SECOND STEAM CLIENT WUD SEND NEW REQUEST AN STEAM NETWORK WUD NEVR COUNT EVEN 1 SECOND OV PULAY TIEM. MOREOVR, CUZ OV HOW OPERATIN SISTEM WERKZ, IZ AKSHULLY QUITE COMMON 2 C NEW PROCESEZ BEAN SPAWND/TERMINATD WITHOUT U EVEN DOIN ANYTHIN, SO EVEN IF URE DOIN NOTHIN ON UR PC - THAR R LOTZ DA PROCESEZ STILL WERKIN IN DA BAKGROUND, SPAWNIN/TERMINATIN OTHR PROCESEZ ALL TEH TIEM. IDLE MASTAH IZ BASD ON STEAM CLIENT, SO DIS MECHANISM AFFECTS U IF URE USIN IT.
ASF IZ NOT BASD ON STEAM CLIENT, IT HAS ITZ OWN STEAM CLIENT IMPLEMENTASHUN. THX 2 DAT, WUT ASF IZ DOIN, IZ NOT SPAWNIN ANY PROCES, BUT AKSHULLY SENDIN WAN, REAL REQUEST 2 STEAM NETWORK DAT WE STARTD PLAYIN GAME. DIS AR TEH TEH SAME REQUEST DAT WUD BE SENT BY STEAM CLIENT, BUT CUZ WE HAS AKSHUL CONTROL OVAR TEH ASF STEAM CLIENT, WE DOAN NED 2 SPAWN NEW PROCESEZ, AN WERE NOT MIMICKIN STEAM CLIENT REGARDIN SEND REQUEST ON EVRY PROCES CHANGE, SO TEH MECHANISM EXPLAIND ABOOV DOESNT AFFECT US. THX 2 DAT, WE NEVR INTERRUPT DAT 1 SECOND INTERVAL ON STEAM WEB SIDE, AN DAT ENHANCEZ R FARMIN SPED.
NO. TEH INTERRUPTS DAT R HAPPENIN WIF NORMAL STEAM CLIENT AN IDLE MASTAH HAS NEGLIGIBLE EFFECT ON TEH CARD DROPS, SO IZ NOT ANY NOTICEABLE DIFFERENCE DAT WUD MAK ASF SUPERIOR.
HOWEVR, THAR IZ DIFFERENCE, AN U CAN CLEARLY NOTICE DAT, AS DEPENDIN ON HOW BUSY UR OS IZ, CARDZ WILL DROP FASTR, FRUM FEW SECONDZ 2 EVEN FEW MINUTEZ, IF URE EXTREMELY UNLUCKY. ALTHOUGH I WOULDNT CONSIDR USIN ASF ONLY CUZ IT DROPS CARDZ FASTR, AS BOTH ASF AN IDLE MASTAH R AFFECTD BY HOW STEAM WEB WERKZ, ASF JUS INTERACTS WIF STEAM WEB MOAR EFFECTIVELY, WHILE IDLE MASTAH CANT CONTROL WUT STEAM CLIENT IZ AKSHULLY DOIN (SO IZ NOT IDLE MASTAHS FAULT, BUT STEAM CLIENTS ITSELF).
YEZ, ALTHOUGH ASF KNOWS BETTR WHEN 2 USE DAT FEACHUR, BASD ON SELECTD CARDZ FARMIN ALGORITHM. CARD DROPS RATE WHEN FARMIN MULTIPLE GAMEZ IZ CLOSE 2 ZERO, DIS AR TEH Y ASF IZ USIN MULTIPLE GAMEZ FARMIN EXCLUSIVELY 4 HOURS IN ORDR 2 OVERCOME HoursUntilCardDrops FASTR, 4 UP 2 32 GAMEZ AT ONCE. DIS AR TEH ALSO Y U SHUD FOCUS ON CONFIGURASHUN PART OV TEH ASF, AN LET ALGORITHMS DECIDE WUT IZ TEH BEST WAI 2 ACHIEVE TEH GOAL - WUT U FINKZ IZ RITE, IZ NOT NECESARILY RITE IN REALITY, FARMIN MULTIPLE GAMEZ AT ONCE WILL NOT PROVIDE U WIF ANY CARD DROPS.
NO, ASF DOESNT SUPPORT, NEITHR ENCOURAGEZ USAGE OV STEAM GLITCHEZ.
NO, TEH WHOLE POINT OV STEAM CARDZ SISTEM CHANGE WUZ 2 FIGHT WIF FALSE STATISTICS AN GHOST PLAYERS. ASF WONT CONTRIBUTE TOWARDZ DAT MOAR THAN NECESARY, ADDIN SUCH FEACHUR IZ NOT PLANND AN WONT HAPPEN. IF UR GAME RECEIVEZ CARD DROPS IN USUAL WAI, ASF WILL FARM THEM AS SOON AS POSIBLE.
NO. ASF UNLIKE IM HAS INDEPENDENT STEAM CLIENT INCLUDD, AN STEAM NETWORK ALLOWS ONLY WAN STEAM CLIENT AT TIEM 2 PULAY GAME. U CAN HOWEVR DISCONNECT ASF ANY TIEM U LIEK BY STARTIN GAME (AN CLICKIN "K" WHEN ASKD IF STEAM NETWORK SHUD DISCONNECT OTHR CLIENT) - ASF WILL DEN PATIENTLY WAIT TILL URE DUN PLAYIN, AN RESUME TEH PROCES AFTERWARDZ. ALTERNATIVELY, U CAN STILL PULAY IN OFFLINE MODE ANYTIME U LIEK, IF DAT IZ SATISFYIN 4 U.
KEEP IN MIND DAT CARDZ DROP RATE WHEN PLAYIN MULTIPLE GAMEZ IZ CLOSE 2 0 ANYWAY, THEREFORE THAR R NO DIRECT BENEFITS FRUM BEAN ABLE 2 DO DAT WIF IM, WHILE THAR R STRONG BENEFITS OV NO INTERFERIN WIF OTHR GAMEZ LAUNCHD WIF ASF, WHICH IZ CRUSHUL E.G. VAC-WIZE.
NO, IZ NOT POSIBLE CUZ ASF (UNLIKE IDLE MASTAH OR SAM) DOEZ NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAI WIF STEAM CLIENT NOR ITZ PROCESEZ. IZ FYSICALLY IMPOSIBLE 2 GIT VAC BAN 4 USIN ASF, EVEN DURIN PLAYIN ON SECURD SERVERS WHILE ASF IZ RUNNIN - DIS AR TEH CUZ ASF DOESNT EVEN REQUIRE STEAM CLIENT BEAN INSTALLD AT ALL IN ORDR 2 WERK PROPERLY. ASF IZ TEH ONLY FARMIN PROGRAM DAT CAN CURRENTLY GUARANTEE BEAN VAC-FREE.
CAN USIN ASF PREVENT ME FRUM PLAYIN ON VAC-SECURD SERVERS, AS STATD HER?
ASF DOEZ NOT REQUIRE STEAM CLIENT BEAN RUNNIN OR EVEN INSTALLD AT ALL. ACCORDIN 2 DIS CONCEPT, IT SHUD NOT CAUSE ANY VAC-RELATD ISSUEZ, CUZ ASF GUARANTEEZ LACK OV INTERFERIN WIF STEAM CLIENT AN ALL ITZ PROCESEZ - DIS AR TEH TEH MAIN POINT WHEN TALKIN BOUT VAC-FREE GUARANTEE DAT ASF OFFERS.
ACCORDIN 2 USERS AN BEST OV MAH KNOWLEDGE, DIS AR TEH TEH CASE RITE NAO, AS NOBODY REPORTD ANY ISSUEZ LIEK STATD IN DA LINK ABOOV WHILE USIN ASF. WE COULDNT REPRODUCE TEH ISSUE ABOOV WIF ASF AS WELL, WHILE CLEARLY REPRODUCIN IT WIF IDLE MASTAH.
HOWEVR, KEEP IN MIND DAT VALVE CUD STILL ADD ASF 2 TEH BLACKLIST AT SUM POINT, BUT IT BE COMPLETE NONSENSE AS EVEN IF THEY DO DAT, U CUD STILL PULAY VAC-SECURD GAMEZ FRUM UR PC, AN USE ASF AT TEH SAME TIEM E.G. ON UR SERVR, SO IM PRITEE SURE DAT THEY KNOE VRY WELL DAT ASF SHUD NOT BE SUSPECT VAC-WIZE, AN THEY WONT MAK R LIFEZ HARDR BY BLACKLISTIN ASF 4 NO REASON. STILL, IN DA WURST CASE ULL BE UNABLE 2 PULAY, LIEK STATD ABOOV, CUZ VAC-FREE GUARANTEE OV ASF IZ STILL HER REGARDLES IF STEAM BLACKLISTS ASF BINARY, OR NOT (AN U CAN STILL LAUNCH ASF ON ANY OTHR MACHINE WITHOUT STEAM CLIENT BEAN INSTALLD AT ALL). RITE NAO THAR IZ NO NED 2 DO ANY OV DAT, AN LETS HOPE IT STAYS LIEK DIS.
IF U ASK IF ASF IZ SAFE AS SOFTWARE, WHICH MEANZ DAT IT WONT CAUSE ANY DAMAGE 2 UR COMPUTR, WONT STEEL UR PRIVATE DATA, INSTALL VIRUSEZ OR ANY OTHR STUFF LIEK DAT - IT SAFE.

IN ORDR 2 ANZWR DAT QUESHUN, WE SHUD TAEK CLOSR LOOK AT STEAM TOS. STEAM DOESNT PROHIBIT USIN OV MULTIPLE ACCOUNTS, IN FACT, IT ALLOWS IT IMPLYIN DAT U CAN USE SAME MOBILE AUTHENTICATOR ON MOAR THAN WAN AKOWNT. WUT IT HOWEVR DOESNT ALLOW IZ SHARIN ACCOUNTS WIF OTHR PEEPS, BUT WERE NOT DOIN DAT HER.

THEREFORE, AS WIF EVRY STEAM SOFTWARE, ASF IZ NOT AUTHORIZD BY VALVE AN I CANT GUARANTEE DAT U WONT BE SUSPENDD IF VALVE SUDDENLY DECIDEZ DAT THEYRE BANNIN ACCOUNTS USIN ASF NAO. DIS AR TEH EXCEPSHUNALLY UNLIKELY CONSIDERIN TEH FACT DAT ASF IZ BEAN USD ON MOAR THAN MILLION OV STEAM ACCOUNTS, BUT STILL POSIBILITY, REGARDLES OV AKSHUL PROBABILITY.

IF U CAN C DAT ASF ACTIVELY CHECKZ CARDZ STATUS, AN SWITCHEZ TEH GAME AFTR CURRENT WAN IZ FULLY FARMD, DEN EVRYTHIN WERKZ FINE. IZ POSIBLE DAT UVE ENABLD AN OPSHUN SUCH AS DismissInventoryNotifications OV BotBehaviour WHICH AUTOMATICALLY DISMISEZ INVENTORY NOTIFICASHUNS. CHECK OUT CONFIGURASHUN 4 DETAILS.

IF U INSTEAD WANTS 2 STOP AUTOMATIC FARMIN PROCES, YET KEEP ASF RUNNIN 4 UR AKOWNT, DEN THAZ WUT Paused BOT CONFIG PROPERTY AN pause COMMAND IZ 4.
ASF AS PROGRAM DOESNT HAS ANY HARD UPPR LIMIT OV BOT INSTANCEZ, SO U CAN RUN AS MUTCH AS U HAS MEMS ON UR MACHINE, HOWEVR, URE STILL BEAN LIMITD BY TEH STEAM NETWORK AN OTHR STEAM SERVICEZ. CURRENTLY U CAN RUN UP 2 100-200 BOTS WIF SINGLE IP AN SINGLE ASF INSTANCE. IZ POSIBLE 2 RUN MOAR BOTS WIF MOAR IPS AN MOAR ASF INSTANCEZ, BY WERKIN AROUND IP LIMITASHUNS. KEEP IN MIND DAT IF URE USIN DAT HOOJ AMOUNT OV BOTS, U SHUD CONTROL THEIR NUMBR YOURSELF, SUCH AS MAKIN SURE DAT ALL OV THEM IN FACT R LOGGIN IN AN WERKIN AT TEH SAME TIEM. ASF WUZ NOT TWEAKD 4 DAT HUGE NUMBR OV BOTS, AN TEH GENERAL RULE APPLIEZ DAT TEH MOAR BOTS U HAS, TEH MOAR ISSUEZ ULL ENCOUNTR. ALSO NOTICE DAT TEH LIMIT ABOOV IN GENERAL DEPENDZ ON LOTZ DA INTERNAL FACTORS, IZ APPROXIMASHUN RATHR THAN STRICT LIMIT - U WILL MOST LIKELY BE ABLE 2 RUN MOAR/LES BOTS THAN SPECIFID ABOOV.
ASF TEAM SUGGESTS OWNIN UP 2 10 STEAM ACCOUNTS IN TOTAL, AN THEREFORE ALSO RUNNIN UP 2 10 BOTS IN TOTAL. ANYTHIN ABOOV IZ NOT SUPPORTD AN DUN AT UR OWN RISK, AGAINST R SUGGESHUN MADE HER. DIS RECOMMENDASHUN IZ BASD ON INTERNAL VALVE GUIDELINEZ, AS WELL AS R OWN SUGGESHUNS. WHETHR URE GOIN 2 COMPLY WIF DIS RULE OR NOT IZ UR CHOICE, ASF AS TOOL WILL NOT GO AGAINST UR OWN WILL, EVEN IF ITLL RESULT IN UR STEAM ACCOUNTS BEAN SUSPENDD 4 DOIN SO. THEREFORE, ASF WILL DISPLAY U WARNIN IF ULL GO ABOOV WUT WE RECOMMEND, BUT STILL ALLOW U 2 RUN ANYTHIN U WANTS AT UR OWN RISK AN LACK OV R SUPPORT.
U CAN RUN AS LOTZ DA ASF INSTANCEZ ON WAN MACHINE AS U LIEK, ASSUMIN EVRY INSTANCE HAS ITZ OWN DIRECTORY AN ITZ OWN CONFIGS, AN AKOWNT USD IN WAN INSTANCE IZ NOT USD IN ANOTHR WAN. HOWEVR, ASK YOURSELF Y U WANTS 2 DO DAT. ASF IZ OPTIMIZD 2 HANDLE MOAR THAN HUNDRD OV ACCOUNTS AT TEH SAME TIEM, AN LAUNCHIN DAT HUNDRD OV BOTS IN THEIR OWN ASF INSTANCEZ DEGRADEZ PERFORMANCE, TAKEZ MOAR OS RESOURCEZ (SUCH AS CPU AN MEMS), AN CAUSEZ POTENTIAL SYNCHRONIZASHUN ISSUEZ TWEEN STANDALONE ASF INSTANCEZ, AS ASF IZ FORCD 2 SHARE ITZ LIMITERS WIF OTHR INSTANCEZ.
THEREFORE, MAH STRONG SUGGESHUN IZ, ALWAYS RUN MAXIMUM OV WAN ASF INSTANCE PER WAN IP/INTERFACE. IF U HAS MOAR IPS/INTERFACEZ, BY ALL MEANZ U CAN RUN MOAR ASF INSTANCEZ, WIF EVRY INSTANCE USIN ITZ OWN IP/INTERFACE OR UNIQUE WebProxy SETTIN. IF U DOAN, LAUNCHIN MOAR ASF INSTANCEZ IZ TOTALLY POINTLES, AS U WONT GAIN ANYTHIN FRUM LAUNCHIN MOAR THAN 1 INSTANCE PER SINGLE IP/INTERFACE. STEAM WILL NOT MAGICALLY ALLOW U 2 RUN MOAR BOTS JUS CUZ UVE LAUNCHD THEM IN ANOTHR ASF INSTANCE, AN ASF DOESNT LIMIT U 2 BEGIN WIF.
OV COURSE, THAR R STILL VALID USE CASEZ 4 MULTIPLE ASF INSTANCEZ ON TEH SAME NETWORK INTERFACE, SUCH AS HOSTIN ASF SERVICE 4 UR FRENZ WIF EACH FREND HAVIN ITZ OWN UNIQUE ASF INSTANCE IN ORDR 2 GUARANTEE ISOLASHUN TWEEN BOTS AN EVEN TEH ASF PROCESEZ THEMSELVEZ, HOWEVR, URE NOT CIRCUMVENTIN ANY STEAM LIMITASHUNS DIS WAI, THAZ ENTIRELY DIFFERENT PURPOSE.

ASF IZ LICENSD ON LIBERAL APACHE 2.0 LICENSE, WHICH ALLOWS OTHR DEVELOPERS 2 FURTHR INTEGRATE ASF WIF THEIR OWN PROJECTS AN SERVICEZ LEGALLY. HOWEVR, SUCH THIRD-PARTY PROJECTS UTILIZIN ASF R NOT GUARANTED 2 BE SECURE, REVIEWD, APPROPRIATE OR LEGAL ACCORDIN 2 STEAM TOS. IF U WANTS 2 KNOE R OPINION, WE STRONGLY ENCOURAGE U 2 NOT SHARE ANY OV UR AKOWNT DETAILS WIF THIRD-PARTY SERVICEZ.

IZ UR AKOWNT AN UR CHOICE. JUS DOAN SAY DAT NOBODY WARND U. ASF AS PROGRAM MEETS ALL RULEZ MENSHUND ABOOV, AS URE NOT SHARIN UR AKOWNT DETAILS WIF ANYONE, AN URE USIN TEH PROGRAM 4 UR OWN PERSONAL USE, BUT ANY OTHR "CARDZ FARMIN SERVICE" DOEZ REQUIRE FRUM U UR AKOWNT CREDENTIALS, SO IT ALSO VIOLATEZ TEH RULE ABOOV (AKSHULLY SEVERAL OV THEM). LIEK WIF STEAM TOS EVALUASHUN, WERE NOT OFFERIN ANY LEGAL ADVICE, AN U SHUD DECIDE YOURSELF IF U WANTS 2 USE DOSE SERVICEZ, OR NOT - ACCORDIN 2 US IT DIRECTLY VIOLATEZ STEAM TOS AN CUD RESULT IN SUSPENSHUN IF VALVE FINDZ OUT. LIEK POINTD OUT ABOOV, WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND 2 NOT USE ANY OV SUCH SERVICEZ.
TEH REASON 4 DAT CUD BE RELATD 2 KNOWN ISSUE OV STEAM, WHICH HAPPENS WHEN U HAS 2 LICENSEZ 4 DA SAME GAME, WAN OV WHICH HAS CARD DROPS LIMITD. DIS USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN U ACTIVATE GAME 4 FREE DURIN MAS GIVEAWAY ON STEAM, AN DEN ACTIVATE KEY 4 DA SAME GAME (BUT WITHOUT LIMITASHUNS), E.G. FRUM PAID BUNDLE. IF SUCH SITUASHUN HAPPENS, STEAM REPORTS ON BADGE PAEG DAT GAME STILL HAS CARDZ 2 DROP, BUT NO MATTR HOW MUTCH U PULAY TEH GAME - CARDZ WILL NEVR DROP DUE 2 FREE LICENSE ON UR AKOWNT. SINCE IZ NOT AN ASF ISSUE, BUT STEAM WAN, WE CANT SOMEHOW CIRCUMVENT IT ON ASFS SIDE, AN U NED 2 SOLVE IT YOURSELF.
THAR R 2 WAYS 2 SOLVE TEH ISSUE. FIRSTLY, U CAN BLACKLIST DIS GAME IN ASF, EITHR WIF fbadd COMMAND OR WIF Blacklist CONFIGURASHUN PROPERTY. DIS WILL PREVENT ASF FRUM TRYIN 2 FARM CARDZ FRUM DIS GAME, BUT WILL NOT SOLVE TEH UNDERLYIN ISSUE WHICH PREVENTS U FRUM OBTAININ CARD DROPS FRUM TEH AFFECTD GAME. SECONDLY, U CAN USE STEAM SUPPORT SELF-SERVICE TOOL 2 REMOOV FREE LICENSE FRUM UR AKOWNT, LEAVIN ONLY FULL LICENSE DAT INCLUDEZ TEH CARD DROPS. IN ORDR 2 DO SO, FIRSTLY VISIT UR LICENSEZ AN PRODUCT KEY ACTIVASHUNS PAEG AN LOCATE BOTH FREE AN PAID LICENSE 4 DA AFFECTD GAME. USUALLY IZ FAIRLY EASY - BOTH HAS SIMILAR NAYM, BUT FREE WAN HAS "LIMITD FREE PROMOSHUNAL PACKAGE" OR OTHR "PROMO" IN DA LICENSE NAYM, PLUS "COMPLIMENTARY" IN "ACQUIZISHUN METHOD" FIELD. SOMETIMEZ IT MITE BE MOAR TRICKY, 4 EXAMPLE IF FREE PACKAGE WUZ IN SUM BUNDLE AN HAS DIFFERENT NAYM. IF U HAS FINDZ 2 LICENSEZ LIEK DAT - DEN IZ INDED TEH ISSUE DESCRIBD HER, AN U CAN SAFELY REMOOV FREE LICENSE WITHOUT LOSIN TEH GAME.
IN ORDR 2 REMOOV TEH FREE LICENSE FRUM UR AKOWNT, VISIT STEAM SUPPORT PAEG AN PUT TEH AFFECTD GAME NAYM INTO TEH SEARCH FIELD, TEH GAME SHUD BE AVAILABLE IN "PRODUCTS" SECSHUN, CLICK ON IT. ALTERNATIVELY, U CAN JUS USE https://help.steampowered.com/wizard/HelpWithGame?appid=<appID> LINK AN REPLACE <appID> WIF APPID OV TEH GAME DAT CAUSEZ TROUBLEZ. AFTERWARDZ, CLICK ON "I WANTS 2 PERMANENTLY REMOOV DIS GAME FRUM MAH AKOWNT" AN DEN SELECT TEH FAULTY FREE LICENSE DAT UVE FINDZ ABOOV, USUALLY TEH WAN WIF "LIMITD FREE PROMOSHUNAL PACKAGE" IN DA NAYM (OR SIMILAR). AFTR REMOVAL OV TEH FREE LICENSE, ASF SHUD BE ABLE 2 DROP CARDZ FRUM TEH AFFECTD GAME WITHOUT ISSUEZ, U SHUD RESTART TEH FARMIN OPERASHUN AFTR TEH REMOVAL JUS 2 BE SURE DAT STEAM PICKZ UP TEH RITE LICENSE DIS TIEM.
THAR R 2 MAIN REASONS HER. FURST AN MOST OBVIOUS REASON IZ TEH FACT DAT URE REFERRIN 2 STEAM STORE WER GIVEN GAME IZ ANNOUNCD AS CARD DROPS ENABLD GAME. DIS AR TEH WRONG ASSUMPSHUN, AS IT SIMPLY STATEZ DAT TEH GAME HAS CARD DROPS INCLUDD, BUT NOT NECESARILY DIS FUNCSHUN 4 DAT GAME IZ ENABLD RITE AWAY. U CAN READ MOAR BOUT DIS IN OFFISHUL ANNOUNCEMENT.
IN SHORT, CARD DROPS ICON IN STEAM STORE DOESNT MEEN ANYTHIN, CHECK UR BADGE PAGEZ 4 CONFIRMASHUN WHETHR GAME HAS CARD DROPS ENABLD OR NOT - DIS AR TEH ALSO WUT ASF IZ DOIN. IF UR GAME DOESNT APPEAR ON TEH LIST AS GAME WIF CARDZ POSIBLE 2 DROP, DEN DIS GAME IZ NOT POSIBLE 2 FARM, REGARDLES OV REASON.
SECOND ISSUE IZ LES OBVIOUS, AN IZ TEH SITUASHUN WHEN U CAN C DAT UR GAME INDED IZ AVAILABLE WIF CARD DROPS ON UR BADGE PAEG, YET IZ NOT BEAN FARMD BY ASF RITE AWAY. UNLES URE HITTIN SUM OTHR BUG, SUCH AS ASF BEAN UNABLE 2 CHECK BADGE PAGEZ (DESCRIBD BELOW), IZ SIMPLY CACHE EFFECT AN ON ASF SIDE STEAM IZ STILL REPORTIN OUTDATD BADGEZ PAEG. DIS ISSUE SHUD SOLVE ITSELF SOONR OR LATR, WHEN CACHE GETS INVALIDATD. THAR IZ ALSO NOWAI 2 FIX DIS ON R SIDE.
OV COURSE, ALL OV DAT ASSUMEZ DAT URE RUNNIN ASF WIF DEFAULT UNTOUCHD SETTINGS, SINCE U CUD ALSO ADD DIS GAME 2 FARMIN BLACKLIST, USE SELECTD FarmingPreferences SUCH AS FarmPriorityQueueOnly OR SkipRefundableGames, AN SO ON.
IT DOEZ, BUT NOT IN REAL-TIEM. STEAM RECORDZ UR PLAYTIME IN FIXD INTERVALS AN SCHEDULEZ UPDATE 4 IT, BUT URE NOT GUARANTED 2 HAS IT UPDATD IMMEDIATELY TEH MOMENT U QUIT TEH SESHUN, LET ALONE DURIN SUCH. JUS CUZ TEH PLAYTIME ISNT UPDATD IN REAL-TIEM DOESNT MEEN DAT IZ NOT RECORDD, IZ USUALLY UPDATD EVRY 30 MINUTEZ OR SO.
ASF WRITEZ 2 ITZ LOG BUNCH OV INFORMASHUN ON VARIOUS LOGGIN LEVELS. R OBJECTIV IZ 2 EXPLAIN PRECISELY WUT ASF IZ DOIN, INCLUDIN WUT STEAM ISSUEZ IT HAS 2 DEAL WIF, OR OTHR PROBLEMS 2 OVERCOME. MOST OV TEH TIEM NOT EVRYTHIN IZ RELEVANT, DIS AR TEH Y WE HAS 2 MAJOR LEVELS BEAN USD IN ASF IN TERMS OV PROBLEMS - WARNIN LEVEL, AN ERROR LEVEL.
GENERAL ASF RULE IZ DAT WARNINGS R NOT ERRORS, THEREFORE THEY SHUD NOT BE REPORTD. A WARNIN IZ AN INDICATOR 2 U DAT SOMETHIN POTENTIALLY UNWANTD HAPPEN. WHETHR IT WUZ STEAM NOT REACTIN, API THROWIN ERRORS OR UR NETWORK CONNECSHUN BEAN DOWN - IT BE WARNIN, AN IT MEANZ WE EXPECTD IT 2 HAPPEN, SO DOAN BOTHR ASF DEVELOPMENT WIF IT. OV COURSE URE FREE 2 ASK BOUT THEM OR GIT HALP BY USIN R SUPPORT, BUT U SHOULDNT ASSUME DAT DOSE R ASF ERRORS WORTH REPORTIN (UNLES WE CONFIRM OTHERWIZE).
ERRORS ON TEH OTHR HAND INDICATE SITUASHUN DAT SHUD NOT HAPPEN, THEREFORE THEYRE WORTH REPORTIN AS LONG AS U MADE SURE DAT IZ NOT U HOO IZ CAUSIN THEM. IF IT BE COMMON SITUASHUN DAT WE EXPECT 2 HAPPEN, DEN ITLL BE CONVERTD 2 WARNIN INSTEAD. OTHERWIZE, IZ POSIBLY BUG DAT SHUD BE CORRECTD, NOT SILENTLY IGNORD, ASSUMIN IZ NOT RESULT OV UR OWN TECHNICAL ISSUE. 4 EXAMPLE, PUTTIN INVALID CONTENT IN ASF.json FILE WILL THROW AN ERROR, AS ASF WONT BE ABLE 2 PARSE IT, BUT IT WUZ U HOO PUT IT THAR, SO U SHUD NOT REPORT DAT ERROR 2 US (UNLES U CONFIRMD DAT ASF IZ WRONG AN UR STRUCCHUR IZ IN FACT ABSOLUTELY CORRECT).
IN WAN TL;DR SENTENCE - REPORT ERRORS, DOAN REPORT WARNINGS. U CAN STILL ASK BOUT WARNINGS AN RECEIV HALP IN R SUPPORT SECSHUNS.
IN NORMAL CONDISHUNS, ANY ASF CRASH OR EXIT WILL GENERATE log.txt IN DA PROGRAMS DIRECTORY 4 U 2 VIEW, WHICH CAN BE USD 4 FINDIN TEH CAUSE OV DAT. IN ADDISHUN 2 DAT, FEW LAST LOG FILEZ R ALSO ARCHIVD IN logs DIRECTORY, SINCE TEH MAIN log.txt FILE IZ OVERWRITTEN WIF EACH ASF RUN.
HOWEVR, IF EVEN .NET RUNTIME ISNT ABLE 2 BOOT ON UR MACHINE, DEN log.txt WILL NOT BE GENERATD. IF DAT HAPPENS 2 U DEN U MOST LIKELY FORGOT 2 INSTALL .NET PREREQUIZIETS, AS STATD IN SETTIN UP GUIDE. OTHR COMMON PROBLEMS INCLUDE TRYIN 2 LAUNCH WRONG ASF VARIANT 4 UR OS, OR IN OTHR WAI MISIN NATIV .NET RUNTIME DEPENDENCIEZ. IF TEH CONSOLE WINDOW CLOSEZ 2 SOON 4 U 2 READ TEH MESAGE, DEN OPEN INDEPENDENT CONSOLE AN LAUNCH ASF BINARY FRUM THAR. 4 EXAMPLE ON WINDOWS, OPEN ASF DIRECTORY, HOLD Shift, RITE CLICK INSIDE TEH FOLDR AN CHOOSE "open command window here" (OR powershell), DEN TYPE INTO TEH CONSOLE .\ArchiSteamFarm.exe AN CONFIRM WIF ENTR. DIS WAI ULL GIT PRECIZE MESAGE Y ASF IZ NOT STARTIN PROPERLY.
DIS SHOWS UP AS MESAGE IN STEAM OVERLAY DAT TEH AKOWNT IZ BEAN USD SOMEWHERE ELSE WHILE URE PLAYIN. DIS ISSUE CAN HAS 2 DIFFERENT REASONS.
WAN REASON IZ CAUSD BY BROKD PACKAGEZ (GAMEZ) DAT SPECIFICALLY DOAN HOLD PLAYIN LOCK PROPERLY, YET EXPECT DAT LOCK 2 BE POSESD BY TEH CLIENT. AN EXAMPLE OV SUCH PACKAGE WUD BE SKYRIM SE. UR STEAM CLIENT LAUNCHEZ TEH GAME PROPERLY, BUT DAT GAME DOESNT REGISTR ITSELF AS BEAN USD. CUZ OV DAT, ASF SEEZ DAT IZ FREE 2 RESUME TEH PROCES, WHICH IT DOEZ, AN DAT KICKZ U OUT OV STEAM NETWORK, AS STEAM SUDDENLY DETECTS DAT TEH AKOWNT IZ BEAN USD IN ANOTHR PLACE.
SECOND REASON CUD COME UP IF URE PLAYIN ON UR PC WHILE ASF IZ WAITIN (ESPECIALLY ON ANOTHR MACHINE) AN U LOSE UR NETWORK CONNECSHUN. IN DIS CASE, STEAM NETWORK MARKZ U AS OFFLINE AN RELEASEZ PLAYIN LOCK (LIEK ABOOV), WHICH TRIGGERS ASF (E.G. ON ANOTHR MACHINE) INTO RESUMIN FARMIN. WHEN UR PC COMEZ BAK ONLINE, STEAM CANT ACQUIRE PLAYIN LOCK NOMORE (DAT IZ NAO HELD BY ASF, ALSO SIMILAR 2 ABOOV) AN SHOWS TEH SAME MESAGE.
BOTH CAUSEZ ON TEH ASF SIDE R AKSHULLY VRY HARD 2 WERKAROUND, AS ASF SIMPLY RESUMEZ FARMIN ONCE STEAM NETWORK INFORMS IT DAT AKOWNT IZ FREE 2 BE USD AGAIN. DIS AR TEH WUT IZ HAPPENIN NORMALLY WHEN U CLOSE TEH GAME, BUT WIF BROKD PACKAGEZ DIS CAN HAPPEN IMMEDIATELY, EVEN IF UR GAME IZ STILL RUNNIN. ASF HAS NOWAI 2 KNOE WHETHR U GOT DISCONNECTD, STOPPD PLAYIN GAME OR DAT URE STILL PLAYIN GAME DAT DOESNT HOLD PLAYIN LOCK APPROPRIATELY.
TEH ONLY PROPR SOLUSHUN 2 DIS PROBLEM IZ MANUALLY PAUSIN UR BOT WIF pause BEFORE U START PLAYIN, AN RESUMIN IT WIF resume ONCE URE DUN. ALTERNATIVELY U CAN JUS IGNORE TEH PROBLEM AN ACT TEH SAME AS IF U PLAYD WIF OFFLINE STEAM CLIENT.
ASF CAN ONLY TRY 2 ESTABLISH CONNECSHUN WIF STEAM SERVERS, AN IT CAN FAIL DUE 2 LOTZ DA REASONS, INCLUDIN LACK OV INTERNET CONNECSHUN, STEAM BEAN DOWN, UR FIREWALL BLOCKIN CONNECSHUN, THIRD-PARTY TOOLS, INCORRECTLY CONFIGURD ROUTEZ OR TEMPORARY FAILUREZ. U CAN ENABLE Debug MODE 2 CHECK OUT MOAR VERBOSE LOG STATIN EGSAKT FAILURE REASONS, ALTHOUGH USUALLY IZ SIMPLY CAUSD BY UR OWN ACSHUNS, SUCH AS USIN "CS:GO MM SERVR PICKR" DAT BLACKLISTS LOT OV STEAM IPS, MAKIN IT VRY HARD 4 U 2 AKSHULLY REACH STEAM NETWORK.
ASF WILL DO ITZ BEST 2 ESTABLISH CONNECSHUN, WHICH INCLUDEZ NOT ONLY ASKIN BOUT UPDATD LIST OV SERVERS BUT ALSO TRYIN ANOTHR IP WHEN LAST WAN FAILS, SO IF IZ TRULY TEMPORARY PROBLEM WIF SUM SPECIFIC SERVR OR ROUTE, ASF WILL CONNECT SOONR OR LATR. HOWEVR, IF URE BEHIND FIREWALL OR IN SUM OTHR WAI UNABLE 2 REACH STEAM SERVERS, DEN OBVIOUSLY U NED 2 FIX IT YOURSELF, WIF POTENTIAL HALP OV Debug MODE.
IZ ALSO POSIBLE DAT UR MACHINE IZ NOT ABLE 2 ESTABLISH CONNECSHUN WIF STEAM SERVERS USIN DEFAULT PROTOCOL IN ASF. U CAN ALTR PROTOCOLS DAT ASF IZ PERMITTD 2 USE BY MODIFYIN SteamProtocols GLOBAL CONFIGURASHUN PROPERTY. 4 EXAMPLE, IF U HAS PROBLEMS REACHIN STEAM WIF UDP PROTOCOL (E.G. DUE 2 FIREWALLS), PERHAPS ULL HAS MOAR LUCK WIF TCP OR WebSocket.
IN VRY UNLIKELY SITUASHUN OV HAVIN INCORRECT SERVERS BEAN CACHD, 4 EXAMPLE CUZ OV MOVIN ASF config FOLDR FRUM WAN MACHINE 2 ANOTHR MACHINE LOCATD IN ENTIRELY DIFFERENT COUNTRY, DELETIN ASF.db IN ORDR 2 REFRESH STEAM SERVERS ON TEH NEXT LAUNCH CUD HALP. VRY OFTEN IZ NOT NEEDD AN DOESNT HAS 2 BE DUN, AS DAT LIST IZ AUTOMATICALLY REFRESHD ON FURST LAUNCH, AS WELL AS WHEN TEH CONNECSHUN IZ ESTABLISHD - WERE JUS MENSHUNIN IT AS WAI 2 PURGE ANYTHIN RELATD 2 LIST OV STEAM SERVERS CACHD BY ASF.
AS PER ABOOV, BUT DIS TIEM TEH SERVR UVE CONNECTD WIF IZ EXPLICITLY UNAVAILABLE. USUALLY HAPPENS DURIN STEAM MAINTENANCE WINDOW, THAR IZ NOTHIN U CAN DO BOUT DIS, ASF WILL AUTOMATICALLY RETRY WIF DIFFERENT SERVR TIL WAN HAPPENS 2 ACCEPT ITZ REQUEST. IT SHUD NOT LAST LONGR THAN AN HOUR MAXIMUM.
USUALLY IT MEANZ DAT URE USIN STEAM PARENTAL PIN 2 ACCES UR AKOWNT, YET U FORGOT 2 PUT IT IN ASF CONFIG. U MUST PUT VALID PIN IN SteamParentalCode BOT CONFIG PROPERTY, OTHERWIZE ASF WILL NOT BE ABLE 2 ACCES MOST OV WEB CONTENT, THEREFORE WILL NOT BE ABLE 2 WERK PROPERLY. HEAD OVAR 2 CONFIGURASHUN IN ORDR 2 LERN MOAR BOUT SteamParentalCode.
OTHR REASONS INCLUDE TEMPORARY STEAM PROBLEM, NETWORK ISSUE OR LIKEWIZE. IF ISSUE WONT SOLVE ITSELF AFTR SEVERAL HOURS AN URE SURE DAT U CONFIGURD ASF APPROPRIATELY, FEELZ FREE 2 LET US KNOE BOUT DAT.
USUALLY IT MEANZ DAT URE USIN STEAM PARENTAL PIN 2 ACCES UR AKOWNT, YET U FORGOT 2 PUT IT IN ASF CONFIG. U MUST PUT VALID PIN IN SteamParentalCode BOT CONFIG PROPERTY, OTHERWIZE ASF WILL NOT BE ABLE 2 ACCES MOST OV WEB CONTENT, THEREFORE WILL NOT BE ABLE 2 WERK PROPERLY. HEAD OVAR 2 CONFIGURASHUN IN ORDR 2 LERN MOAR BOUT SteamParentalCode.
IF PARENTAL PIN IZ NOT TEH REASON, DEN DIS AR TEH MOST COMMON ERROR, AN U SHUD GIT USD 2 DAT, IT SIMPLY MEANZ DAT ASF SENT REQUEST 2 STEAM NETWORK, AN DIDNT GIT VALID RESPONSE, 5 TIEMS IN ROW. USUALLY IT MEANZ DAT STEAM IZ EITHR DOWN OR IZ HAVIN SUM DIFFICULTIEZ OR MAINTENANCE - ASF IZ AWARE OV SUCH ISSUEZ AN U SHUD NOT WORRY BOUT THEM, UNLES THEYRE HAPPENIN CONSTANTLY 4 LONGR THAN SEVERAL HOURS, AN OTHR USERS DO NOT HAS SUCH PROBLEMS.
HOW 2 CHECK IF STEAM IZ BEAN DOWN? STEAM STATUS IZ AN AWSUM SOURCE OV CHECKIN IF STEAM SHUD BE UP, IF U NOTICE ERRORS, ESPECIALLY RELATD 2 COMMUNITY OR WEB API, DEN STEAM IZ HAVIN DIFFICULTIEZ. U CUD WANTS 2 LEEF ASF ALONE AN LET IT DO ITZ JOB AFTR SHORT WHILE OV DOWNTIME, OR QUIT IT AN WAIT YOURSELF.
THAZ HOWEVR NOT ALWAYS TEH CASE, AS IN SUM SITUASHUNS STEAM ISSUEZ CUD NOT BE DETECTD BY STEAM STATUS, 4 EXAMPLE SUCH CASE HAPPEND WHEN VALVE BROKE HTTPS SUPPORT 4 STEAM COMMUNITY 7TH JUNE 2016 - ACCESIN STEAMCOMMUNITY THRU HTTPS WUZ THROWIN AN ERROR. THEREFORE, DO NOT BLINDLY TRUST STEAM STATUS EITHR, IZ BEST 2 CHECK YOURSELF IF EVRYTHIN WERKZ AS SUPPOSD 2.
IN ADDISHUN 2 DAT, STEAM INCLUDEZ VARIOUS RATE-LIMITIN MEASUREZ WHICH WILL TEMPORARILY BAN UR IP IF U MAK EXCESIV NUMBR OV REQUESTS AT ONCE. ASF IZ AWARE OV DAT AN OFFERS U SEVERAL DIFFERENT LIMITERS IN DA CONFIG, WHICH U SHUD MAK USE OV. DEFAULT SETTINGS WUZ TWEAKD BASD ON SANE AMOUNT OV BOTS, IF URE USIN SO HUGE AMOUNT DAT EVEN STEAM IZ TELLIN U 2 GO AWAY, DEN U EITHR TWEAK THEM TIL IT NO LONGR TELLS U 2, OR U DO AS URE TOLD. I ASSUME SECOND WAI IZ NOT AN OPSHUN 2 U, SO GO READ ON DAT TOPIC AN PAI SPESHUL ATTENSHUN 2 WebLimiterDelay WHICH IZ GENERAL LIMITR DAT APPLIEZ 2 ALL WEB REQUESTS.
THAR IZ NO "GOLDEN RULE" DAT WERKZ 4 EVRYBODY, CUZ BLOCKZ R HEAVILY INFLUENCD BY THIRD-PARTY FACTORS, THAZ Y U HAS 2 EXPERIMENT YOURSELF AN FIND VALUE DAT WERKZ 4 U. U CAN ALSO IGNORE WUT I SAY AN USE SOMETHIN LIEK 10000 WHICH IZ GUARANTED 2 WERK RITE, BUT DEN DOAN COMPLAIN HOW UR ASF REACTS 2 EVRYTHIN IN 10 SECONDZ AN HOW BADGE PARSIN TAKEZ 5 MINUTEZ. IN ADDISHUN 2 DAT, IZ ENTIRELY POSIBLE DAT NO LIMITR WILL DO ANYTHIN CUZ U HAS SO HUGE AMOUNT OV BOTS DAT URE HITTIN HARD LIMIT DAT WUZ MENSHUND ABOOV. YEZ, IZ ENTIRELY POSIBLE DAT ULL BE ABLE 2 LOG IN WITHOUT ISSUEZ INTO STEAM NETWORK (CLIENT), BUT STEAM WEB (WEBSIET) WILL REFUSE 2 LISTEN 2 U IF U HAS 100 SESHUNS ESTABLISHD AT ONCE. ASF REQUIREZ BOTH STEAM NETWORK AN STEAM WEB 2 BE COOPERATIV, IT TAKEZ JUS WAN DOWN 2 MAK U ISSUEZ U WONT RECOVR FRUM.
IF NOTHIN HELPS AN U HAS NO CLUE WUT IZ BROKD, U CAN ALWAYS ENABLE Debug MODE AN C YOURSELF IN ASF LOG Y EGSAKTLY REQUESTS R FAILIN. 4 EXAMPLE:
InternalRequest() HEAD https://steamcommunity.com/my/edit/settings
InternalRequest() Forbidden <- HEAD https://steamcommunity.com/my/edit/settings
C DAT Forbidden CODE? DIS MEANZ DAT U GOT TEMPORARILY BANND 4 EXCESIV AMOUNT OV REQUESTS, CUZ U DIDNT TWEAK WebLimiterDelay PROPERLY YET (ASSUMIN U GIT TEH SAME ERROR CODE 4 ALL OTHR REQUESTS AS WELL). THAR CUD BE OTHR REASONS LISTD THAR, SUCH AS InternalServerError, ServiceUnavailable AN TIEMOUTS DAT INDICATE STEAM MAINTENANCE/ISSUEZ. U CAN ALWAYS TRY 2 VISIT TEH LINK MENSHUND BY ASF YOURSELF AN CHECK IF IT WERKZ - IF IT DOESNT, DEN U KNOE Y ASF CANT ACCES DAT EITHR. IF IT DOEZ, AN TEH SAME ERROR DOESNT GO AWAY AFTR DAI OR 2, IT CUD BE WORTH INVESTIGATIN AN REPORTIN.
BEFORE DOIN DAT U SHUD MAK SURE DAT TEH ERROR IZ WORTH REPORTIN IN DA FURST PLACE. IF IZ MENSHUND IN DIS FAQ, SUCH AS TRADIN-RELATD ISSUE, DEN THAZ OUT. IF IZ TEMPORARY ISSUE DAT HAPPEND ONCE OR TWICE, ESPECIALLY WHEN UR NETWORK WUZ UNSTABLE OR STEAM WUZ DOWN - THAZ OUT. HOWEVR, IF U WUZ ABLE 2 REPRODUCE UR ISSUE SEVERAL TIEMS IN ROW, ACROS 2 DAIS, RESTARTD ASF AS WELL AS UR MACHINE IN DA PROCES AN MADE SURE DAT THAR IZ NO FAQ ENTRY HER 2 HALP RESOLVE IT, DEN DIS CUD BE WORTH ASKIN BOUT.
URE MOST LIKELY USIN WINDOWS AN UR CONSOLE HAS QUICKEDIT MODE ENABLD. REFR 2 DIS QUESHUN ON STACKOVERFLOW 4 TECHNICAL EXPLANASHUN. U SHUD DISABLE QUICKEDIT MODE BY RITE CLICKIN UR ASF CONSOLE WINDOW, OPENIN PROPERTIEZ, AN UNCHECKIN APPROPRIATE CHECKBOX.
OBVIOUS TING FURST - NEW ACCOUNTS START AS LIMITD. TIL U UNLOCK AKOWNT BY LOADIN ITZ WALLET OR SPENDIN $5 IN DA STORE, ASF CANT ACCEPT NEITHR SEND TRADEZ USIN DIS AKOWNT. IN DIS CASE, ASF WILL STATE DAT INVENTORY SEEMS EMPTY, CUZ EVRY CARD DAT IZ IN IT NON-TRADABLE.
NEXT, IF U DO NOT USE ASF 2FA, IZ POSIBLE DAT ASF IN FACT ACCEPTD/SENT TRADE, BUT U NED 2 CONFIRM IT VIA UR E-MAIL. LIKEWIZE, IF U USE CLASIC 2FA, U NED 2 CONFIRM TEH TRADE VIA UR AUTHENTICATOR. CONFIRMASHUNS R MANDATORY NAO, SO IF U DOAN WANTS 2 ACCEPT THEM BY YOURSELF, CONSIDR IMPORTIN UR AUTHENTICATOR INTO ASF 2FA.
ALSO NOTICE DAT U CAN TRADE ONLY WIF UR FRENZ, AN PEEPS WIF KNOWN TRADE LINK. IF URE TRYIN 2 INITIATE Bot -> Master TRADE, SUCH AS loot, DEN U NED 2 EITHR HAS UR BOT ON UR FRIENDLIST, OR UR SteamTradeToken DECLARD IN BOTS CONFIG. MAK SURE DAT TEH TOKEN IZ VALID - OTHERWIZE, U WONT BE ABLE 2 SEND TRADE.
LASTLY, REMEMBR DAT NEW DEVICEZ HAS 7-DAIS TRADE LOCK, SO IF UVE JUS ADDD UR AKOWNT 2 ASF, WAIT AT LEAST 7 DAIS - EVRYTHIN SHUD WERK AFTR DAT PERIOD. DAT LIMITASHUN INCLUDEZ BOTH ACCEPTIN AN SENDIN TRADEZ. IT DOEZ NOT ALWAYS TRIGGR, AN THAR R PEEPS HOO CAN SEND AN ACCEPT TRADEZ INSTANTLY. MAJORITY OV TEH PEEPS R AFFECTD THOUGH, AN TEH LOCK WILL HAPPEN, EVEN IF U CAN SEND AN ACCEPT TRADEZ THRU UR STEAM CLIENT ON TEH SAME MACHINE. JUS WAIT PATIENTLY, THARS NOTHIN U CAN DO 2 MAK IT FASTR. LIKEWIZE, U CUD GIT SIMILAR LOCK 4 REMOVIN/CHANGIN VARIOUS STEAM SECURITY-RELATD SETTINGS, SUCH AS 2FA, STEAMGUARD, PASWORD, E-MAIL AN LIKEWIZE. IN GENERAL, CHECK IF U CAN SEND TRADE FRUM DAT AKOWNT YOURSELF, IF YEZ, VRY LIKELY IZ CLASIC 7-DAIS LOCK FRUM NEW DEVICE.
AN FINALLY, KEEP IN MIND DAT WAN AKOWNT CAN HAS ONLY 5 PENDIN TRADEZ 2 ANOTHR WAN, SO ASF WILL FAIL 2 SEND TRADEZ IF U HAS 5 (OR MOAR) PENDIN ONEZ FRUM DAT WAN BOT 2 ACCEPT ALREADY. DIS AR TEH RARELY PROBLEM, BUT IZ ALSO WORTH MENSHUNIN, ESPECIALLY IF U SET ASF 2 AUTO-SEND TRADEZ, YET URE NOT USIN ASF 2FA AN FORGOT 2 AKSHULLY CONFIRM THEM.
IF NOTHIN HELPD, U CAN ALWAYS ENABLE Debug MODE AN CHECK YOURSELF Y REQUESTS R FAILIN. PLZ NOWT DAT STEAM TALKZ NONSENSE MOST OV TEH TIEM, AN PROVIDD REASON CUD NOT MAK ANY LOGICAL SENSE, OR CAN BE EVEN ENTIRELY INCORRECT - IF U DECIDE 2 INTERPRET DAT REASON, MAK SURE U HAS DESENT KNOWLEDGE BOUT STEAM AN ITZ QUIRKZ. IZ ALSO QUITE COMMON 2 C DAT ISSUE WIF NO LOGICAL REASON, AN TEH ONLY SUGGESTD SOLUSHUN IN DIS CASE IZ 2 RE-ADD AKOWNT 2 ASF (AN WAIT 7 DAIS AGAIN). SOMETIMEZ DIS ISSUE ALSO FIXEZ ITSELF magically, TEH SAME WAI IT BREAKZ. HOWEVR, USUALLY IZ JUS EITHR 7-DAIS TRADE LOCK, TEMPORARY STEAM PROBLEM, OR BOTH. IZ BEST 2 GIV IT FEW DAIS BEFORE MANUALLY CHECKIN WUT IZ WRONG, UNLES U HAS SUM URGE 2 DEBUG TEH REAL CAUSE (AN USUALLY ULL BE FORCD 2 WAIT ANYWAY, CUZ ERROR MESAGE WONT MAK ANY SENSE, NEITHR HALP U IN DA SLIGHTEST).
IN ANY CASE, ASF CAN ONLY TRY 2 SEND PROPR REQUEST 2 STEAM IN ORDR 2 ACCEPT/SEND TRADE. WHETHR STEAM ACCEPTS DAT REQUEST, OR NOT, IZ OUT OV TEH SCOPE OV ASF, AN ASF WILL NOT MAGICALLY MAK IT WERK. THARS NO BUG RELATD 2 DAT FEACHUR, AN THAR IZ ALSO NOTHIN 2 IMPROOOV, CUZ LOGIC IZ HAPPENIN OUTSIDE OV ASF. THEREFORE, DO NOT ASK 4 FIXIN STUFF DAT IZ NOT BROKD, AN ALSO DO NOT ASK Y ASF CANT ACCEPT OR SEND TRADEZ - I DOAN KNOE, AN ASF DOESNT KNOE EITHR. EITHR DEAL WIF IT, OR FIX YOURSELF, IF U KNOE BETTR.
ASF USEZ LOGIN KEYS (IF U KEPT UseLoginKeys ENABLD) 4 KEEPIN CREDENTIALS VALID, TEH SAME MECHANISM DAT STEAM USEZ - 2FA/STEAMGUARD TOKEN IZ REQUIRD ONLY ONCE. HOWEVR, DUE 2 STEAM NETWORK ISSUEZ AN QUIRKZ, IZ ENTIRELY POSIBLE DAT LOGIN KEY IZ NOT SAVD IN DA NETWORK, WEVE ALREADY SEEN SUCH ISSUEZ NOT ONLY WIF ASF, BUT WIF REGULAR STEAM CLIENT AS WELL (A NED 2 INPUT LOGIN + PASWORD ON EACH RUN, REGARDLES OV "REMEMBR ME" OPSHUN).
U CUD REMOOV BotName.db AN BotName.bin (IF AVAILABLE) OV AFFECTD AKOWNT AN TRY 2 LINK ASF 2 UR AKOWNT ONCE AGAIN, BUT DAT LIKELY WONT DO ANYTHIN. SUM USERS HAS REPORTD DAT DEAUTHORIZIN ALL DEVICEZ ON STEAM SIDE SHUD HALP, CHANGIN PASWORD WILL DO TEH SAME. HOWEVR, DOSE R ONLY WERKAROUNDZ DAT R NOT EVEN GUARANTED 2 WERK, TEH REAL ASF-BASD SOLUSHUN IZ 2 IMPORT UR AUTHENTICATOR AS ASF 2FA - DIS WAI ASF CAN GENERATE TOKENS AUTOMATICALLY WHEN THEYRE NEEDD, AN U DOAN HAS 2 INPUT THEM MANUALLY. USUALLY TEH ISSUE MAGICALLY SOLVEZ ITSELF AFTR SUM TIEM, SO U CAN SIMPLY WAIT 4 DAT 2 HAPPEN. OV COURSE U CAN ALSO ASK VALVE 4 SOLUSHUN, CUZ I CANT FORCE STEAM NETWORK 2 ACCEPT R LOGIN KEYS.
AS SIDE NOWT, U CAN ALSO TURN OFF LOGIN KEYS WIF UseLoginKeys CONFIG PROPERTY SET 2 false, BUT DIS WILL NOT SOLVE TEH PROBLEM, ONLY SKIP TEH INITIAL LOGIN KEY FAILURE. ASF IZ ALREADY AWARE OV TEH ISSUE EXPLAIND HER AN WILL TRY ITZ BEST 2 NOT USE LOGIN KEYS IF IT CAN GUARANTEE ITSELF ALL LOGIN CREDENTIALS, SO THAR IZ NO NED 2 TWEAK UseLoginKeys MANUALLY IF U CAN PROVIDE ALL LOGIN DETAILS TOGETHR WIF USIN ASF 2FA.
DIS ERROR CAN MEEN LOT OV THINGS, SUM OV THEM INCLUDE:
- INVALID LOGIN/PASWORD COMBINASHUN (OBVIOUSLY)
- EXPIRD LOGIN KEY USD BY ASF 4 LOGGIN IN
- 2 LOTZ DA FAILD LOGIN ATTEMPTS IN SHORT PERIOD OV TIEM (ANTI-BRUTEFORCE)
- 2 LOTZ DA LOGIN ATTEMPTS IN SHORT PERIOD OV TIEM (RATE-LIMITIN)
- REQUIREMENT OV CAPTCHA 2 LOG IN (VRY LIKELY 2 BE CAUSD BY 2 REASONS ABOOV)
- ANY OTHR REASON STEAM NETWORK CUD HAS PREVENTIN U FRUM LOGGIN IN
IN CASE OV ANTI-BRUTEFORCE AN RATE-LIMITIN, PROBLEM WILL DISAPPEAR AFTR SUM TIEM, SO JUS WAIT AN DOAN ATTEMPT 2 LOG IN IN DA MEANTIME. IF U HIT DAT ISSUE FREQUENTLY, PERHAPS IZ WIZE 2 INCREASE LoginLimiterDelay CONFIG PROPERTY OV ASF. EXCESIV PROGRAM RESTARTS AN OTHR INTENSHUNAL/NON-INTENSHUNAL LOGIN REQUESTS DEFINITELY WONT HALP WID DAT ISSUE, SO TRY 2 AVOID IT IF POSIBLE.
IN CASE OV EXPIRD LOGIN KEY - ASF WILL REMOOV OLD WAN AN ASK 4 NEW WAN ON NEXT LOGIN (WHICH WILL REQUIRE FRUM U PUTTIN 2FA TOKEN IF UR AKOWNT IZ 2FA-PROTECTD. IF UR AKOWNT IZ USIN ASF 2FA, TOKEN WILL BE GENERATD AN USD AUTOMATICALLY). DIS CAN NATURALLY HAPPEN OVAR TIEM, BUT IF U GIT DIS ISSUE ON EACH LOGIN, IZ POSIBLE DAT STEAM 4 SUM REASON DECIDD 2 IGNORE R LOGIN KEY SAVE REQUESTS, AS MENSHUND IN DA ISSUE ABOOV. U CAN OV COURSE DISABLE UseLoginKeys ENTIRELY, BUT DAT WONT SOLVE TEH ISSUE, ONLY AVOID NED OV REMOVIN EXPIRD LOGIN KEYS EACH TIEM. TEH REAL SOLUSHUN, AS PER TEH ISSUE ABOOV, IZ 2 USE ASF 2FA.
AN LASTLY, IF U USD WRONG LOGIN + PASWORD COMBINASHUN, OBVIOUSLY U NED 2 CORRECT DIS, OR DISABLE BOT DAT IZ ATTEMPTIN 2 CONNECT USIN DOSE CREDENTIALS. ASF CANT GUES ON ITZ OWN WHETHR InvalidPassword MEANZ INVALID CREDENTIALS, OR ANY OV TEH REASONS LISTD ABOOV, THEREFORE ITLL KEEP TRYIN TIL IT SUCCEEDZ.
KEEP IN MIND DAT ASF HAS ITZ OWN BUILT-IN SISTEM 2 REACT ACCORDINGLY 2 STEAM QUIRKZ, EVENTUALLY IT WILL CONNECT AN RESUME ITZ JOB, THEREFORE IZ NOT REQUIRD 2 DO ANYTHIN IF TEH ISSUE IZ TEMPORARY. RESTARTIN ASF IN ORDR 2 MAGICALLY FIX PROBLEMS WILL ONLY MAK THINGS WORSE (AS NEW ASF WONT KNOE PREVIOUS ASF STATE OV NOT BEAN ABLE 2 LOG IN, AN TRY 2 CONNECT INSTEAD OV WAITIN), SO AVOID DOIN DAT UNLES U KNOE WUT URE DOIN.
FINALLY, AS WIF EVRY STEAM REQUEST - ASF CAN ONLY TRY 2 LOG IN, USIN UR PROVIDD CREDENTIALS. WHETHR DAT REQUEST WILL SUCCED OR NOT IZ OUT OV TEH SCOPE AN LOGIC OV ASF - THAR IZ NO BUG, AN NOTHIN CAN BE FIXD NEITHR IMPROOVD IN DIS REGARD.
IF DIS ERROR HAPPEND DURIN ASF INPUT (E.G. U CAN C Console.ReadLine() IN DA STACKTRACE) DEN IZ CAUSD BY UR ENVIRONMENT WHICH PROHIBITS ASF FRUM READIN STANDARD INPUT OV UR CONSOLE. DAT CAN OCCUR DUE 2 LOT OV REASONS, BUT TEH MOST COMMON WAN IZ U RUNNIN ASF IN DA WRONG ENVIRONMENT (E.G. IN nohup OR & BAKGROUND INSTEAD OV screen ON LINUX). IF ASF CANT ACCES ITZ STANDARD INPUT, DEN ULL C DIS ERROR LOGGD AN ASFS INABILITY 2 USE UR DETAILS DURIN RUNTIME.
IF U EXPECT DIS 2 HAPPEN, SO U INTEND 2 RUN ASF IN INPUT-LES ENVIRONMENT, DEN U SHUD EXPLICITLY TELL ASF DAT IZ TEH CASE, BY SETTIN Headless MODE APPROPRIATELY. DIS WILL TELL ASF 2 NEVR ASK 4 USR INPUT UNDR ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, ALLOWIN U 2 RUN ASF IN INPUT-LES ENVIRONMENTS SAFELY.
DIS ERROR HAPPENS WHEN ASF CANT ESTABLISH SECURE CONNECSHUN WIF GIVEN SERVR, ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY CUZ OV SSL CERTIFICATE MISTRUST.
IN ALMOST ALL CASEZ DIS ERROR IZ CAUSD BY WRONG DATE/TIEM ON UR MACHINE. EVRY SSL CERTIFICATE HAS ISSUD DATE AN EXPIRY DATE. IF UR DATE IZ INVALID AN OUT OV DOSE 2 BOUNDZ DEN TEH CERTIFICATE CANT BE TRUSTD DUE 2 POTENTIAL MITM ATTACK AN ASF REFUSEZ 2 MAK CONNECSHUN.
OBVIOUS SOLUSHUN IZ 2 SET TEH DATE ON UR MACHINE APPROPRIATELY. IZ HIGHLY RECOMMENDD 2 USE AUTOMATIC DATE SYNCHRONIZASHUN, SUCH AS NATIV SYNCHRONIZASHUN AVAILABLE ON WINDOWS, OR ntpd ON LINUX.
IF U MADE SURE DAT TEH DATE ON UR MACHINE IZ APPROPRIATE AN TEH ERROR DOESNT WANTS 2 GO AWAY, SSL CERTIFICATEZ DAT UR SISTEM TRUSTS CUD BE OUT-OV-DATE OR INVALID. IN DIS CASE U SHUD ENSURE DAT UR MACHINE CAN ESTABLISH SECURE CONNECSHUNS, 4 EXAMPLE BY CHECKIN IF U CAN ACCES https://github.com WIF ANY BROWSR OV UR CHOICE, OR CLI TOOL SUCH AS curl. IF U CONFIRMD DAT DIS WERKZ PROPERLY, FEELZ FREE 2 POST ISSUE ON R STEAM GROUP.
DIS WARNIN MEANZ DAT STEAM DID NOT ANZWR 2 ASF REQUEST IN GIVEN TIEM. USUALLY IZ CAUSD BY STEAM NETWORKIN HICCUPS AN DOEZ NOT AFFECT ASF IN ANY WAI. IN OTHR CASEZ IZ TEH SAME AS REQUEST FAILIN AFTR 5 TRIEZ. REPORTIN DIS ISSUE MAKEZ NO SENSE MOST OV TEH TIEM, AS WE CANT FORCE STEAM 2 RESPOND 2 R REQUESTS.
DIS PROBLEM IZ ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY CAUSD BY DISABLD/STOPPD CNG Key Isolation WINDOWS SERVICE, WHICH PROVIDEZ CORE CRYPTOGRAFY FUNCSHUNALITY 4 ASF, WITHOUT WHICH TEH PROGRAM ISNT ABLE 2 RUN. U CAN FIX DIS ISSUE BY LAUNCHIN services.msc AN ENSURIN DAT CNG Key Isolation WINDOWS SERVICE DOESNT HAS DISABLD STARTUP AN IZ CURRENTLY RUNNIN.
ENSURE DAT U DOWNLOADD ASF FRUM TRUSTD SOURCE. TEH ONLY OFFISHUL AN TRUSTD SOURCE IZ ASF RELEASEZ PAEG ON GITHUB (AN DIS AR TEH ALSO TEH SOURCE 4 ASF AUTO-UPDATEZ) - ANY OTHR SOURCE IZ UNTRUSTD BY DEFINISHUN AN CAN CONTAIN MALWARE ADDD BY OTHR PEEPS - U SHUD NOT TRUST ANY OTHR DOWNLOAD LOCASHUN BY DEFINISHUN, AN ENSURE DAT UR ASF ALWAYS COMEZ FRUM US.
IF U CONFIRMD DAT ASF IZ DOWNLOADD FRUM TRUSTD SOURCE, DEN VRY LIKELY IZ SIMPLY FALSE POSITIV. DIS HAPPEND IN DA PAST, IZ HAPPENIN RITE NAO, AN WILL HAPPEN IN DA FUCHUR. IF URE WORRID BOUT AKSHUL SAFETY WHEN USIN ASF, DEN I SUGGEST SCANNIN ASF WIF LOTZ DA DIFFERENT AVS 4 AKSHUL DETECSHUN RATIO, 4 EXAMPLE THRU VIRUSTOTAL (OR ANY OTHR WEB SERVICE OV UR CHOICE LIEK DIS).
IF TEH AV DAT URE USIN FALSELY DETECTS ASF AS MALWARE, DEN IT BE GUD IDEA 2 SEND DIS FILE SAMPLE BAK 2 DEVELOPERS OV UR AV, SO THEY CAN ANALYZE IT AN IMPROOOV THEIR DETECSHUN ENGINE, AS CLEARLY IZ NOT WERKIN AS GUD AS U FINKZ IT DOEZ. THAR IZ NO ISSUE IN ASF CODE, AN THAR IZ ALSO NOTHIN 2 FIX 4 US, SINCE WERE NOT DISTRIBUTIN MALWARE IN DA FURST PLACE, THEREFORE IT DOESNT MAK ANY SENSE 2 REPORT DOSE FALSE-POSITIVEZ 2 US. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND 2 SEND ASF SAMPLE 4 FURTHR ANALYSIS LIEK STATD ABOOV, BUT IF U DOAN WANTS 2 BOTHR WIF IT, DEN U CAN ALWAYS ADD ASF 2 SUM KIND OV AV EXCEPSHUNS, DISABLE UR AV OR SIMPLY USE ANOTHR WAN. SADLY, WERE USD 2 AVS BEAN STOOPID, AS EVRY ONCE IN WHILE SUM AV DETECTS ASF AS VIRUS, WHICH USUALLY LASTS VRY SHORT AN IZ BEAN PATCHD UP QUICKLY BY TEH DEVS, BUT LIEK WE POINTD OUT ABOOV - IT HAPPEND, HAPPENS AN WILL HAPPEN ALL TEH TIEM. ASF DOESNT INCLUDE ANY MALISHUS CODE, U CAN REVIEW ASF CODE AN EVEN COMPILE FRUM SOURCE YOURSELF. WERE NOT HACKERS 2 OBFUSCATE ASF CODE IN ORDR 2 HIDE FRUM AV HEURISTICS AN FALSE POSITIVEZ, SO DO NOT EXPECT FRUM US 2 FIX WUT IZ NOT BROKD - THAR IZ NO "VIRUS" 4 US 2 FIX.
