[QUOTE=puddlesheep;39056887]The program itself is working great thanks! But when I close TF2idle it does not save my settings, meaning I have to readd 6 accounts in one by one which is getting rather annoying. The .exe is just placed in a file on my desktop and is not compressed. Any help?[/QUOTE] I believe the newest version solves this issue by saving everytime you make a change, try to update the program.
Also when trading, how do I get around this? [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/AyhcQ.png[/IMG] [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/ty47p.png[/IMG] A couple days ago I managed to trade between new idle accounts with no issue so I don't know why it is not working now, I get the steamguard issue when I am trying to trade to my main.

I use my sandboxes on the same computer, so I'm able to trade easily, but when I look at the trade chat from my idle account's side, I get this message. (Red is just the name) [img]http://i.imgur.com/o89dr.png[/img] Any idea why it's doing this?

I found that buying the "Upgrade To Premium" tool does not upgrade their Steam Account. (You have to get both accounts for trading into TF2 and trade through TF2) So you should just go into your the account that you can't trade with and buy a Key or something.
the problem is you have to spend 5 EURO's min because lower than that he asks to put 5 EUR in your funds. I used a virtual credit card provider to do this. you have to start the trade with your main. otherwise you'll get a message from steamguard to wait 15 days. stupid premium gifts :( was a waste of money (bought 10)

And even if i try to trade the premium idle account with my main account it says that it can't trade. ( i start the trade from my main account )

Under the 5EUR options it's also stated Minimum fund level.
Probably already been answered here, but how do you guys make so many accounts? Just a bunch of email accounts, and steam accounts, etc.?
[QUOTE=1112e;39059455]Probably already been answered here, but how do you guys make so many accounts? Just a bunch of email accounts, and steam accounts, etc.?[/QUOTE] look for a mailprovider who lets you make aliases (the mail goes to the same inbox as your main email address there). I have 4 aliases max at my isp mail + main email adress + made 3 new gmail's and I have also yahoo + hotmail

'Cause I currently have 4 emails addresses forwarding to my main gmail.
[QUOTE=1112e;39059835]do you mean inbox forwarding? 'Cause I currently have 4 emails addresses forwarding to my main gmail.[/QUOTE] it's automatic forwarding mails sent to [email]alias@provider.com[/email] to [email]main@provider.com[/email]. It doesn't have a seperate inbox or login codes.

[QUOTE=Bandit99;39050988]Thanks for reply Jaerin. I've already set up a VM copy of windows to test if that works but I havn't got it fully setup as of yet. I just tried with VMplayer (free) and got windows 7 installed, it seems a bit slow and power hungry. Not sure if that VM software is any good or not. Would be nice if I could get them all running on one pc without VM.[/QUOTE] How is this working out for you? I just added some F2P accounts cause i was bored and my premium accounts were all done dropping. Does any of you know how many items you can get before a F2P backpack is full? Is it exactly that one page or can you get more then that?
[QUOTE=radek;39061696]you can use the same e-mail on all of your accounts[/QUOTE] It just said "this email is currently in use by another account" :suicide: [sp]and i can't even change that as i don't want to suddenly switch up my system[/sp] [editline]2nd January 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Eraserhead23;39064805]How is this working out for you?

[QUOTE=RandomGamer342;39053185]I just noticed something odd with the program With the font "TF2Build", it appears like the previews: [IMG]http://puu.sh/1I1zq[/IMG] Without the font "TF2Build", it uses a default font(arial?): [IMG]http://puu.sh/1I1Cb[/IMG] Neither the program or this thread mentions this font being needed, which will probably lead to a lot of people using TF2Idle like the second image. What i'd like to see is a way to select which font to use in the main window as well as the drop log(or at least an option between TF2Build and the fallback) as i prefer the second one and the only font you can select is the drop log's currently[/QUOTE] Yes, this has been bugging me for a while. I've been trying to figure out a way to bundle the font with the program without making the user install it on their system. I'll take another good look at that soon and hopefully push it out with some other bug fixes.
So is everyone getting the "Steamguard must have been activated for 15 days blabla" when trying to trade with new premium accounts? Maybe this is something new they just implemented in steam :/ Could trade just fine earlier this week.

Maybe this is something new they just implemented in steam :/ Could trade just fine earlier this week.[/QUOTE] Yep i'm still getting it, its a pain in the ass. No way is working: -Sending a trade request from my main to a premium tf2 account (steamguard) -Sending a trade request from my newly premium tf2 account to a f2p (to send a premium gift) -Sending a trade request between 2 premium accounts (Get steamguard error) -Sending a trade request from a f2p to a premium (Steam trading not activated yet error) -Sending a trade request from main to a f2p account (again steam trading error) [URL="http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=1161862&p=39057296&viewfull=1#post39057296"]If you want to see pictures of the errors see my post above ^[/URL]
For everyone with the steam guard error, you just have to wait. There's literally nothing you can do about it, it's a safe-guard valve has placed on new accounts(and they warned about this early in december)
[QUOTE=radek;39055828]I just trade all the stuff excluding crates from idle alts into a middleman account, autocraft all those weapons into metal, trade metal onto my main and buy keys on outpost[/QUOTE] Ty. I'm pretty sure bigtime idlers, like really big time idlers (+100 accs) just ignore all the weapons. Autocraft you say, how? I've been ruining my hand the last couple of months that way :(

[QUOTE=puddlesheep;39067184]Damn :( How come I was able to trade between 2 newly premium accounts earlier in the week then? They had been created the day before.[/QUOTE] had the same trouble, and sometimes it still works if you initiate the trade from your main account
For all idlers buying keys with their collected metals : stop. If you keep raising the price of the keys by buying them,soon what we collect won't worth anything. If you stop buying keys then market will crash and we will be able to buy many keys as we want from around 2.5-2.66 ref each.
