Quickly emulate launching games from a list, for given seconds each.
Either create an appids.txt
file, and enter Steam AppIDs to idle (comma and/or line seperated), or launch TcNo-Mass-Account-Idler.exe
and enter AppIDs seperately.
The app will also ask for time to idle games. Enter 1 or 2 to quickly idle games, say for the Steam Next Fest (just launch games for a badge), or longer for manual idle.
While you're here, check out the TcNo Account Switcher. It's super fast, and works with TONS of platforms - not just Steam!
The main program opens idle.exe
with a time to idle (in ms), as well as an ID. steam_appid.txt
is set to the current AppID to idle, and automatically works with Steamworks-NET.
The TcNo-Mass-Idler-Auto.exe
program automatically manages everything. It will activate 50 new keys, then idle each game for 5 seconds, and restarts itself every hour.
When you've run through everything in your appids.txt
file, create skipcheck.txt
and delete idle_queue.txt
in the install folder to run through everything again on the next launch. This makes sure everything was idled properly, and can fix anything that was missed.
You can only activate 50 free games/demos per hour. The program does it's best to explain this. If the Steam Store starts opening or you receive SteamAPI errors in the console, wait an hour and retry.
After adding thousands of demos and free games you likely want to remove them. Simply check the guide HERE to see what you need to do - There's a video included too!
