What is the value of your sort option? Sometimes if sort = "mostvalue" and our API servers are overloaded, it won't detect any card drops. Try again now, or try setting sort = "" and see if that resolves the issue.

It's possible with a few caveats. First, you can play any game that's not on Steam that you'd like without having any consequences - Origin, GOG, etc are all fine as long as you don't run them as a Non-Steam Game shortcut through Steam.

You can play any Steam game you like while Idle Master is running, but be aware that the time it will take for your cards to drop will be significantly increased while doing so. So much so that you may as well stop Idle Master while you're playing, and start it back up again afterwards.

Finally, I don't recommend playing any Steam game that connects to a VAC enabled server while Idle Master is running. Although nobody that I'm aware of has been VAC banned for using Idle Master, it's better safe than sorry.

I hope this information helps!

You can view the source code yourself on Github[github.com].

Many people have independently verified that Idle Master contains nothing malicious.

Does your badges page indicate that you have card drops remaining for this game?

Idle master doesn't affect your system's wi-fi or network settings at all, you must have another issue that's completely unrelated.

If you're interested, the source code to Idle Master can be found here[github.com], and as you can see from the code, this program doesn't affect any network settings.

There is not currently a Steamworks SDK for ARM. It's only available on platforms that have an actual Steam client.

@GreyFoxX, yes, this is definitely a different issue so we'll need to troubleshoot it differently.

First of all, I'm assuming you actually have card drops remaining, correct? http://psteamcommunity.yuanyoumao.com/my/badges/ is the place to look.

Secondly, is your Steam webpage language set to English? I've seen this happen before when your language isn't English (as the Idle Master program can't correctly determine if you have drops remaining or not).

Finally, do you just have a single page of badges in-progress, or multiple pages?

Any time that Idle Master says "Invalid cookie data", this simply means that the program passed the cookie information you supplied to the Steam website, but that it still didn't recognize that you were signed in. Idle Master must simulate you being signed in, otherwise it can't get the list of games it needs to idle, or determine how many card drops you have remaining.

There isn't much I can say to help troubleshoot this issue unfortunately. Just be sure that you're signed in to the browser and copy the cookie data in it's entirety. Sometimes the cookie data can be multiple lines long, so be sure to copy each and every character exactly as-is.

Is the steam-idle.exe application in the Idle Master directory? Can you run it manually by executing steam-idle.exe followed by the app ID (such as 220 for Half Life 2)? So open a command prompt in your IM directory and type steam-idle.exe 220 - does it show you're in game for Half-Life 2?

If that's not working, you may need to redownload steam-idle.exe from Github

Idle Master will idle F2P games, but only if you have available card drops remaining. You can earn card drops in F2P games by purchasing in-game content or DLC. You earn 1 card drop for each $9 spent.
