You have to edit your configuration files.
Examples are switched off by fefault, copy one of them and fill with your account data, also - read REDME file, it's called README for a reason.

To begin with, thank you very much for sharing this app with the community!
I am not good with coding. So, i have to ask.
I change everything necessary on the example.xml to make the app work. Now, in order to add a second account (the one i am sharing my library with), do i create a new example2.xml and copy/paste everything from the original .xml and change only the login credentials or i can simply add another <SteamLogin type="string" value="null"/> line in the example.xml i am already using?
Furthermore, are SteamApiKey and SteamMasterID necessary?
The first account works perfectly! :) you may be able to see it as i have not disabled the statistics module

Make as many xmls as your family accounts or alts. Change login name/display name/ passwords/api key code accordingly. Just keep main steam id number of main account intact as it will act as master controlling the rest.

This program is fucking great. Thank you! I have one question though (sorry if it has been asked before): is there an option to idle multiple games at once (just like Idle Master does)? Because it's faster. Again, thank you for this!
EDIT: I got it. I should have tried this before: What I did was just set the 'CardDropsRestricted' to 'true'.

What does this command do? Does it farm multiple games 2 hours?
Comment has been collapsed.
Do you need send trade offer your family account from master? or is there a command that auto adds all cards from family account to send to master?
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok. But can cards from alt be added and send to main automatic by command without manually sending an offer from main to it and then running bot to execute? ?

Thank you for the awesome program! I have a bunch of alts from 2011 coal crafting fiasco that I want to set up to idle for cards. I put in the right information and turned 2FA on, but I repeatedly get the verification code message. It shows up when I put the code in from the e-mail, too. Was hoping I could get it to work since I no longer have access to 80% of the e-mails I used when registering those accounts. I have Humble Bundle 4 registered on all of the accounts, so I'd be getting a ton of cards...
Edit: I must have to log into each of them and accept the user agreement? Which means I lost a bunch of alts.
Edit2: I don't know, definitely not doing something right. It asks for web authentication even on the few accounts that I still have access to, which I just registered my computer for using the Steam client. Can't log in or idle those even though I should be able to.

Steam client and ArchiBot are separate "clients", which means each account you add in ArchiBot must be verified through email verification in the bot itself. Steam cannot tell if your bots are on the same computer with your client or not. This is why "Remember me on this computer" is so confusing.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes. The FAQ says you can use 2FA commands to generate temporary authentication codes, either by using !2fa in chat or by changing the option in the config files. I can't get past web/mobile authentication stage for any alt account, unless it only generates these codes during trades and not when trying to connect accounts. What you're saying is that I can't use alts without access to the associated e-mails to manually input each authentication code? What's the 2FA feature do if it can't be used to for this then?
Comment has been collapsed.
Okay, I see, after reading the other FAQ for Escrow I need to manually authenticate Steam Guard or be able to access them to turn off 2FA. It's called web/mobile authentication when attempting to log in from ASF, so...yeah. Much less useful than I was hoping it would be.

ok I downloaded and instaled package from there
http://www.mono-project.com/download/#download-mac
how can I get program now?
Comment has been collapsed.
Download ASF.zip, extract it and start ASF.exe through mono. I don't have mac os, but you have some command line there too, right? So, open command line, navigate to the folder where you extracted asf and start it with command mono ASF.exe

AFS is getting revolutionary as fuck.
Archi, you don't even know how many cards you'll have saved from deletion on 1/4/2016.
Personally, without ASF, I'd have lost 18 cards (2 alt accounts * 3 days). All it needs to be considered "professional" worldwide is a UI and an option to minimize in the system tray.
In my opinion, it's perfect as it is, and you, Archi, always manage to find something better to add.
Just... Thank you. It seems a little effort, but ASF is a huge improvement over Idle Master and I can imagine it costed you many hours of your time.
Comment has been collapsed.
I appreciate that you consider ASF as helpful as I do.
Some people asked me if they can do anything as a "thank you" for what I created for them, and I suggested that if they feel generous, they can donate me some extra cards they got from ASF, which I always appreciate. This way you're not losing anything, but only donating a little amount of what ASF in fact generated for you.
ASF will always stay free.

So uh...my anti virus said there was a trojan in the zip 0_o
Comment has been collapsed.
I changed the password on one of the alts and it no longer accepts or confirms trades now. I'm getting Accepting confirmation Failed and Invalid Token exception. Is there a way to fix this or do I have to remove 2fa and re-add it?
Comment has been collapsed.
Was going to try this because IdleMaster is taking too long to get the cards this days, but it's too hard to me understand how it works.

I was having the badge page error for a while (maybe 2 weeks), so i started debugging the code, to find what might be causing it. After changing a lot of stuff something worked: setting the UserAgent to the same as my browser uses. Since most of the users can use the program without this, i think valve is blocking it only on some accounts or it is some kind of rare bug, maybe you could add a new value to the configuration to change it, when its needed?
Comment has been collapsed.
I could add it but are you really sure that up-to-date 1.2.4.0 version doesn't solve your issue? Have you tried rebasing your configs (writing them from scratch) on up-to-date example.xml? Adding a workaround like this should be the last resort, ESPECIALLY because it works for everyone.
Comment has been collapsed.
Open an issue on the github in a ~week from now, I should find a moment to look into this issue then.
Keep in mind however that I'll need temporary access to affected account, so I can check why exactly current implementation doesn't work. Workarounds are always good as temporary fixes, but if there is a specific issue that may be needed to handle in special way, I prefer to find it and fix it properly, or at least in the best way I can, not in the way it works. Steam is a giant pile of spaghetti code, the amount of fuckups goes over any acceptable limit. if I didn't enforce some quality code in ASF the whole thing would collapse by now.

Funny thing, the issue is gone, i cannot reproduce it anymore... you just have to love steam, if it happens again i will gather more data about it. I have another issue (or i just have faulty settings idk). Here's the log: http://pastebin.com/0TJHfxQd . As you can see, it checks the pages, but after it's done it keeps trying to farm them, altough i have ShutdownOnFarmingFinished set to true in each instance. Am i missing something?

I added some nice answers for questions people ask me quite frequently: https://github.com/JustArchi/ArchiSteamFarm/wiki/FAQ
Can I get VAC ban for using this?
Is it safe?
Can I get banned for this?
Did somebody get banned for it?
The situation is actually much better than with Idle Master, but I know that everybody reading this thread already knows that.

What about them? I don't understand your question.
If you ask if it's possible to use ASF while keeping original playtime of your games - no, it's not possible, and will most likely never be due to the fact how card drops work.
If you ask if ASF farms games already farmed - no, why would it do that? So if you have e.g. 9 hours in game X, it won't be changed, assuming all cards dropped already.
Playtime is increased only for games that are being farmed, and ASF farms only games with available card drops.

Thank you for the awesome program!
I've managed to set up 7 accounts and got them working (trading, asf 2fa, etc.) But when trying to enter my phone number for the next bot I get "Unhandled situation: GeneralFailure". I tried entering a different phone and it worked. Do you know if there's any limit for accounts per phone number or any limit for accounts on the same phone number per day?(although I think it's been 24 hours since I first got the error and it hasn't fixed itself) 1 hour after my post I tried again and it worked, so there seems to be a limit of 7 accounts on one account per day
I don't think I've messed anything in the .xml up, because my phone number didn't work with the next accounts either, and the other phone I tried worked.

ASF is a C# application that allows you to farm steam cards using multiple steam accounts simultaneously. Unlike Idle Master which works only for one account at given time, requires steam client running in background, and launches additional processes imitating "game playing" status, ASF doesn't require any steam client running in the background, doesn't launch any additional processes and is made to handle unlimited steam accounts at once. In addition to that, it's meant to be run on servers or other desktop-less machines, and features full cross-OS support, which makes it possible to launch on any .NET Core-supported operating system, such as Windows, Linux or OS X. ASF is possible thanks to gigantic amount of work done in marvelous SteamKit2 library.
ASF doesn't require and doesn't interfere in any way with Steam client. In addition to that, it doesn't require exclusive access to given account, which means that you can use your main account in Steam client, and use ASF for idling the same account at the same time. If you decide to launch a game, ASF will get disconnected, and resume idling once you finish playing your game, being as transparent as possible during entire process.
