Fair enough. I'm trying to connect to the GAF server anyhow at the moment and will mess with IM later. Thanks for all the hard work you put out btw!
edit: CSGO server keeps giving me "bad password" error.

You're the man jshackles! Can you implement a feature to move to the next game? I'm stuck on Blade Symphony. I've been idling for over 8 hours now (I know this game is known for slow drops).
What? Even has trading cards.
That's very cool.
Sorry for my utter ignorance. But regarding idlemaster and Steam card system, I have a question: If I want to craft a badge from cards first, then sell cards from the same game, is this scenario possible? I mean, first use idlemaster to drop cards for badging, then use idlemaster to drop cards from the same game and sell them out?
Or do I have to decide selling or badging?

You have to decide
Better make sandwich

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
Probably so. In the mean time, you should be able to manually close the steam-idle.exe application and then click on the main application and press "ctrl+c" (at the same time) which should cause the program to skip to the next game.

Thanks for all you do to make the steam experience better!

I've only dipped my toe in it, but it seems like a really deep and narrative-driven CRPG. Definitely worth playing!
Indie gamer Toma would be the best person to ask, actually. Because, as I recall, he took quite a shine to Inquisitor.
What would you decide? Need some advise, please!
Is leveling and badging really that important?

Idle-master just generates the cards for you, effectively idling as if you were in the game.
Crafting a badge consumes the cards from your inventory - you can't use them & /then/ sell or trade them. When you hit that "craft badge" button, they're gone.
If you have more cards than is needed to craft a badge, the left over cards are yours to do what you like with - keep to craft again, or sell/trade.

You always have to decide between selling and badging.
All Idle Master will help you do is get the cards into your inventory easier.
Hey, leave him alone until he packs in my auto-queue updater. Trust me.

You'd be better off playing the Baldur's Gate games if you haven't already. The general consensus on Inquisitor is that it fails in the gameplay department.

The more you craft and level, the more likely foils and booster packs are likely to drop. I enjoy crafting and getting the emotes and backgrounds. But all those cards can be worth some sweet dough on the orher hand, so i guess it really depends.

FUCK YES.
is there to make it close the game and re-run the same game to get faster drops?
read something like the first card drop is always the fastest

It's definitely on my "to-do" list.

And so is this.
Narrative driven, I like the sound of that! I've been wanting to play a cRPG again, but I only have Neverwinter Nights, which is excellent but very dated.
Okay, thanks!
my god, that took forever

@jshackles: This version of Idle Master doesn't work for me (the previous one before you took it down did). When I start it just opens a command prompt window but doesn't do anything.
Edit: thanks for the great work on this btw

Okay guys I'm heading to bed, but let me know if you guys have any issues with Idle Master. Tomorrow I'll be more awake and start a new thread where I can provide a bit more dedicated support without mucking up the Steam thread.
Happy idling!
If you were previously using the other version, be sure to update your settings.txt file as it's contents have changed (you need to enter your Steam profile URL now instead of your Steam name)

I forgot about Baldur's Gate; I love those games! That's a shame. I guess it won't hurt to try it, though, since I already own it.

Oh ok. I have all the available drops for it already. So I'm good to go lol.
Good/bad news for you: you can only sell 200 in a year unless you want to give Steam your tax info!

Ah, I missed the URL vs ID change. It seems to be working now! Thanks again
MarcoZombieCannon

And then unless you're making insane amounts of cash, that info is actually for Valve's tax info...
ID is the string of numbers attached to your profile, correct? I don't think I ever set up a custom URL for my Steam profile and really don't want to. :X
Leveling and getting badges aren't that important, and you can always buy them again if you decide to sell them, so if you don't really care about some mostly superficial stuff, just sell them.
You can also choose to create badges from the cheap cards, and just sell the expensive cards. This is what I'd do.
There's really no point going all in and creating badges for all the games you have cards for.

When I say narrative-driven, I mean holy god so many words. There is just so much to read - it's very intimidating, but also very immersive. In this way it reminds me of the Spiderweb Software CRPGs.
I also linked to Toma's Inquisitor thread in that post you quoted - I just edited too slowly.
set it to Mono, you know you want to

CS GO crashed on me while downloading the new map. Oh wells. GGs guys!
Join in again, it's filled with Rats!
Ooo, okay. I have to be in a certain kind of mood to play games that throw novels at you, but I definitely like them! Immersion is key. Hopefully I'll like the writing!
Thank you so much!
I wish!! Mono's already taken, which is why I'm bitter about custom Steam URLs, lol!
Nice, let's see how many cards I still have to find...
Time to get rich.
I had to change language to English but that's a small price to pay.
