First of all: This is not cheating or hacking or whatever!!!Some smart dude wrote a program that lets you connect to a "fake"idleserver. However, you dont have to start TF2, you just have to be connected to your steamaccount. It works (I dont know WHY but it works!) and its really cool, when you have a laptop or whatever, it saves a lot of RAM and CPU usage. Click little link! NOW!

It simulates sitting there in achievement_idle but without the load of running TF2 itself.

And the frequency of items is pretty good, more players on the server, more drops it seems like, cause the idleservers are 256 man servers

Running it while playing something different, if your pc cant handle that much CPU usage. And if youre not patient enough to get the medichat during regular play *cough*

As much as I hate the concept of idling for stuff, this is too appealing to me. Items for eating and sleeping and going to the toilet. What's not to like?

I find myself stark naked except for a pair of latex gloves attempting to pull on a pair of red tights on in my parent's spare bedroom.

Think I'll wait until they sort the drops out - surely it can't be long before they fix this.

I'm dumb. What does it do? Why would u do it?
Means you can gain drop weapons without actually playing the game.... ie. Leave laptop on over night with this thing turned on... wake up in morning to find loads of extra weapons (that you already had probably lol) I might use it.... Ive been using an iDK? idle server but this means I can do it at less cost on the electricity |

hangon, does this violate the ToS or will possibly result in a VAC ban?

The idle server it runs off does not have VAC running |
