No you won't. Just replace the .exe.
Once the new system is in place you will have to replace it all. But until then you are fine
Here is the new version. I know that loading bars aren't enabled. But this version has all the links enabled.
Support me by download it from here:

Or download it from Mediafire here:

Either one I really don't mind :s

Will try it out, thanks
What's your deadline for the finished project here Delta? I haven't downloaded or tried it yet but I think it's cool that you're doing this. One day you can add this to your resume.

I don't really have a deadline for this. Updates will role out until I can't update it anymore.
This is very simple, it is pretty much just placing buttons and changing properties. Not really resume worthy. But thanks :)
Just because the update’s coming tomorrow doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be playing RIGHT NOW, because guess what: Double drop rates start tonight! They’re only around until next Wednesday, so get in there and take advantage of all the double dropping!

Is it possible to delete the contents of Sandboxee all at the same time? If yes, how please?
[QUOTE=zackattack187;33728657]Is it possible to delete the contents of Sandboxee all at the same time? If yes, how please?[/QUOTE]
Right click and delete contents.
You could invent a .bat to do so with the command line.
[QUOTE] C:\"Program Files"\Sandboxie\Start.exe /box:Boxname delete_sandbox_phase1[/QUOTE]
Just repeat that in a .bat for each sandbox if you wish to do so on a regular basis.
-Edit
Added correct quotation marks.

Btw, what does phase1 mean?

Delete Contents of Sandbox
"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" delete_sandbox
"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" delete_sandbox_silent
The /box:SandboxName parameter may be specified between Start.exe and the delete command.
The _silent suffix on the delete command, indicates Sandboxie Start should silently ignore any errors and not display any error messages.
The delete operation occurs in two phases:
Phase 1 scans the contents of the sandbox and processes files which could pose a problem during the second phase:
Junctions (also known as reparse points) are removed.
Read-only files and directories are made fully accessible.
Files and directories that have very long names are renamed to shorter names.
Renames the sandbox to the format __Delete_(sandbox name)_(some random number)_. For example, if the sandbox is DefaultBox, it could be renamed to __Delete_DefaultBox_01C4012345678912.
Phase 2 deletes any sandboxes that were processed in phase 1.
Sandboxes that were processed in phase 1 are those that have been renamed as described above.
More than one sandbox may be deleted in phase 2.
By default, the standard system command RMDIR is used to delete the renamed sandbox folder.
Alternatively, a third-party delete utility may used. See Secure Delete Sandbox.
Issuing the delete_sandbox command causes Start.exe to invoke phase 1 followed by phase 2. Start.exe also accepts these commands to invoke a specific phase:
"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" delete_sandbox_phase1
"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" delete_sandbox_phase2
"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" delete_sandbox_silent_phase1
"C:\Program Files\Sandboxie\Start.exe" delete_sandbox_silent_phase2
Edit:
Well I just found this in my bookmarks [url]http://sikuli.org/[/url]
Essentially what it does and it find a target on the screen via a image and it will click/double click/whatever on it.
What I may do if I ever get to it is make it so it can automatically collect your items and/or trade them to your main account.
This is just a random thought out there. But still very likely to be made :s
Can I have a bit of assistance here, I don't understand the C:/TF2.Idle/Account/Steam.exe part.. TF2.idle.. I don't have such a program!

If you would read the readme you would understand...
Just edit that to the path where your idle folders are located.
If you haven't set it up right then try again :s
If you keep having problems message me.
Okay, I'll give it a go.. I have manually set up my 5 accounts now, and I'd try again once I squeeze all the drops I can get from my accounts. :)

Try 10-13 hours. Depends on if you hit your cap the week before.
Lite version will be out once I have all my stuff moved.
I recommend an even amount of accounts. Just easier to do :s
Enjoy your idling.

Gonna take a nap and give this a shot.
Just for reference, how many items do you normally pull in per week with 5-7 accounts? 70-100?
*EDIT*
Oh-shi, just realised its double drop week, time to get set up!
*EDIT2*
Is there some sort of limit on using cards over different accounts?
I just bought some keys on my second account to get premium, then when I tried to do the same on the third the transaction wont go through and it keeps telling me to contact Steam support.
How to add a server password to the command line? Sometimes it gives "password failed" here, like it's not reading the password before connecting to the server.
By the way, if anyone is having crashes on tf2 startup after the last update, delete the folder account/team fortress 2/bin , then run again and it will work.

Thanks for the heads up on the crashing. To add a passwords you will need
[QUOTE]+sv_password Password[/QUOTE]
For the password.
Suppose you wanted to run the new Christmas map instead of the itemtest map? What would need to change in the .bat file(s) for this to happen?
Zack... it's simple...
Just download Notepad++, install it and use this tutorial to modify text in multiple text files, all at once:

notepad++ is better than notepad, but notepad will suffice

Just to clarify, I go to the default install location (I haven't moved that folder) C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\WHATEVERYOURACCOUTNAMEIS\teamfortress2 and DELETE the subfolder BIN correct?
I did this and still my group idle bat files don't work. Any thoughts on this please? It's rather frustrating.
I'm such a n00b! It sucks... a lot! lol.

Thank you all for your help and advice on changing the map to the new Christmas one. That's really cool of you guys! :) Thanks!

I just left two running for a about 9 hours, as far as I can tell I only got a couple of items and both windows were spammed with that.
I believe "+sv_password password" creates a password for your server. I want to connect to a password'ed server, not create one.
Delta, Imma be buying more accounts for the naughty and nice keys.. so if you could show me ONE more time.. I'm on break now so I'll be paying with extra attention after I'm well rested tonight.
Can you help me tomorrow or so?

I think I can. Just trying to unpack stuff right now.
And just a heads up connecting to a listen server uses less resources since you are only supporting 2 players instead of the average 24-32.

Unless they made it official *Which I don't think they did* You either just had a bad streak or you kept disconnecting because your network didn't support the listen servers created for idling.

Yeah it was my main account and I must have been near the weekly cap since I had been playing through the day. I logged on my other account and had 17 items.
*EDIT*
Just launched two more instances of the game and got 'Failed to update item schema: HTTP status 404 fetching (long url to text file).txt', will I still get items?

Try deleting some files in your TF folder in each of your idle accounts. These are located in the main steamapps.

I just checked both their inventories through profiles and one of them does have a drop, so I assume it its all fine.
This error is from the item server, just leave it open and it'll update sometime.
Is anybody else getting thousands of "Reference Count for Material" errors that make hl2.exe "stop working"?
