SteamDB Usage

SteamDB lists two types of restrictions: allowed countries or disallowed countries. Example of disallowed countries: https://i.imgur.com/jxea781.png

Allowed Countries

Find the package on SteamDB like https://steamdb.info/sub/802556/

Copy the country codes from SteamDB and paste them into the new text field on the New Giveaway form, then click Add Regions.

Disallowed Countries

SteamDB also has a listing of countries that are disallowed, such as https://steamdb.info/sub/863943/info/

In this case, follow the same procedure as before but on the New Giveaway form first click Select All. Then paste the country codes into the text field but this time click Remove Regions. This will make it so all countries except the listed ones are allowed.

Copy Existing Giveaway

You can also visit existing giveaway region listings which now have a textbox where you can copy all the country codes. You have to navigate each page and copy each list of codes.

seems very useful, but knowing me it would work perfectly and I would double check it every single time... so might as well continue doing it manually >>

I added input validation in v1.3. So now it tells you if you've entered an invalid code and doesn't do anything until you fix it.

Sometime ago I wrote this JavaScript code to toggle the countries checkbox base on SteamDB region restriction. No need for an existing giveaway, or an user script manager.

This is great, thank you.

Wondering if it'd be possible to also accept full country names. This would make it possible to copy the country list from steamdb packages.

Please also add support for this case: This package can NOT be activated in the following countries.
When user enter a list of countries code, only countries not in the list will be selected.
https://steamdb.info/sub/863943/info/

Edit: First Select All, then Remove Regions.

Maybe admin can add a script to new giveaway page to make it easier for us

If a game was bundled
Ask if you get it through a bundle
If yes, which bundle
Select the bundle
Then system enters regarding region data

There's too many possibilities. Non-bundle games have region restrictions too, and those can vary by storefront. Also bundle games have multiple region sets depending on which region the buyer is in.

But we can find the restrictions by this, right?
https://greasyfork.org/en/scripts/520676-steamgifts-region-helper

So even it is not bundled they could be able to get the information and suggest this?
I mentioned bundle it seems like some HUMble Bundle games has restrictions.

I am no expert on the topic though.

My last game was region restricted which I didn't know and I had to delete it.
So I am just trying to learn the topic.

My script only helps copy the regions from an existing giveaway or copy them from SteamDB. It doesn't look up the regions itself.

Holy cow this is awesome. I finally had first hand experience with real tight restrictions with Hexarchy and that was an absolute pain. With what it seems HB getting tighter on region locks in their bundles, this feels incredibly useful.

Thanks for this awesome script lext! 💯 It came in very handy just now when I created a GA for Cassette Beasts which has atrocious restrictions. Would've been a real pain to do it manually.

This is absolutely gold. The kind of functionality I wish existed natively on the website. Thanks a lot, lext! This is actually inspiring, I kind of want to create my own scripts in other websites now that I see how this works

Oh that is brilliant! Just what I needed!
Another user coming to the rescue by adding features to the site that should be native...
Thanks Lext!
