NOTICE: Pre-releases are experimental versions that often contain unpatched bugs, work-in-progress features or rewritten implementations. If you don't consider yourself advanced user, please download latest stable release instead. Pre-release versions are dedicated to users who know how to report bugs, deal with issues and give feedback. No technical support will be given.

This is supposed to be release candidate of new ASF V2.0.

ASF Revolution

It's almost half a year since first version of ASF was released. During that time I worked hard on bringing you the most advanced steam cards farming program that ever existed. At the beginning I didn't expect some things that happened recently, such as idle master being discontinued, Valve restricting steam market even further, or so many users being interested in tool that initially was supposed to work only for me. Therefore, I had to make some crucial changes that will benefit both the program and you - users, in long-run.

Good news are: nothing should break, everything should work out of the box, and the update process is still the same. Bad news are: You will need to read my wall of text to learn how new ASF works 👍.

Highlights:

File structure has been changed

  • ASF now has global config ASF.json and global database ASF.db. Global config allows you to configure how ASF behaves. Global database should not be edited - contains core global ASF persistent storage.
  • ASF now uses new more modern and robust file structure for configured bots:
    Old: Bot.xml, Bot.bin, Bot.key, Bot.auth
    New: Bot.json, Bot.bin, Bot.db
  • Removed deprecated now SteamNickname. Bot no longer changes nickname (same as null value).
  • Statistics has been moved to global config.
  • Blacklist has been moved to global config, and affects all bots now.

New file structure is well explained in Configuration.

Your existing (old) structure will be automatically converted into new format when ASF V2.0 is launched for the first time (with old configs). It is highly recommended to make a backup of your config directory prior to launching new ASF. Conversion should be transparent and not cause any issues, but conversion "back" is not possible. It's always a good idea to make a backup.

Auto-updates are implemented

  • ASF now includes auto-updates, which can be configured in global config. Auto updates include not only the boolean switch of enabling and disabling, but also update channel which you want to track (Stable/Experimental). Updates are NOT mandatory, but highly recommended, as using up-to-date version guarantees bugless experience, latest features, stability enhancements and performance improvements.

ASF 2FA can now import and use classic 2FA

  • Added support for SteamDesktopAuthenticator .maFile. If you put a .maFile in config directory, ASF will automatically pick it up and convert into it's own format. This is further explained in Documentation.

Other changes

  • Added many new global and bot config properties. All of them are well explained in Configuration.
  • Added Holiday Sale 2013 with appID of 267420 to the blacklist.
  • Fixed a rare exception which could happen when ASF tried to redeem a key on enabled but not connected bot instance.
  • ASF will now double-check if account is truly farmed after finishing it's queue, as new games might be added in the meantime.
