there's no way me changing it at 30 times a second could have actually put a load on the servers
This is what happens now:
It also sends systematic beep sounds.

It seems like they rate limited it per user.
While just changing the avatar slowly may not look as cool, it's still possible to do that.
I can bypass it or check the delay later and adjust accordingly if you peeps want.
Even though, adjusting sounds like the better way, bypassing might piss them off :v:
edit: okey, this should do the job

I think it's still a little too fast, the random letters and beeping is there for a few seconds, then it goes back to normal.
I did the same thing one and a half year ago, but stopped.

Here's what I learned about the process.
You can get an insane amount of fps on your steam picture depending on your upload speed.
If I'm in game, people will actually get low fps if they look at the scoreboard. People with really shit connection will get high ping as well. So don't do this while playing.
Now that this little secret is actually out there. Bring on the laggy friends lists and an official steam upgrade to fix this.

I remember reading about someone doing it 4-5 years ago, and it didn't get fixed.
I've actually limited it to prevent people from spamming it too, because I expected steams avatar servers to kind of suck.
It was useless either way, because they sucked so badly, that even that killed them.
However- it got "fixed" now, read the op ( Steam only allows 3-4 avatar changes per minute now ) :v
Sadly, steams "solution" is a makeshift one too.
If enough people change their avatars, the same issue ( steam avatar servers going rip again ) will occur.
[QUOTE=Plaster;49492824]The thing is I did, left side is launched using the batch file and the right one was launched within the cmd so I've just copied the stuff from the .bat and pasted it there.

Seems like this thread is dead, but i have got a question for you.
How did you launch leysteamavatarchange.exe onboot in cmd? I can't find true code for launch it with cmd, when i try to start it, it says 'No images found'. >_<

Project was last updated a year ago, it's probably incompatible with whatever changes steam has made since then.

Ok. Well, is there any other way to perform this? My friend says he created his own script for it, and It looks cool as shit. Anyone got anything?

I wouldn't listen to him and let him keep trying, I've had like 6 people contacting me saying it isn't working and then later their mails often turned into "i got it working but it's not super fast" :v: - which is surprising considering there's a vid, but, oh well
