Kindly update the url link mate. thanks for the update!!

I'm sorry to keep finding issues, I'm just trying to help you identify things.

I've noticed a weird problem with the "unable to use community market on this device" error. I get this error occasionally on the program, but I've just found out that it can be fixed by rebooting computer and starting the program again. I can't find out what causes it to happen. Is it possible that it's a problem with something within the bot? Thanks

I'd imagine this would be something that you could code for that would help a lot.

For example, if I set my wish price on an item at $10.00 and it was posted at $10.02, the bot would give a notification with some sort of sound to get your attention with an option to buy/not buy the item at that price. You could make it a setting to allow users to set how far off the price could be for the notification to pop up. If nothing was done with the notification, it wouldn't buy the item and would continue to scan as normal.

This would stop users from missing out on items posted 1 or 2 cents above their wish price by giving them an option.

Do you think this would be possible in the next build/update? Thanks

1. WebRequeset timeout;
2. Correct price format in scan log (not working with 0,0X);
3. Parse LotList: checking on (pageJS.success == false);
4. Add wallet info update by Loading Inventory
5. ???
6. Profit!

When trying to login the steam guard thing pops-up, but the verification field is disabled...

Has anyone here had experience with being banned by using this bot? And what can one do to reduce the chance of getting banned?

It's concept, that improves scan performance. Many people asked for this and time has come!
The interface could look like this:

Items, that added to "Newly listed", the bot will scan in only one separate thread.
What do you think?

I've accidentally added multiple of the same tab is there any way to remove them and is there any way to save my buy and sell prices ?

I downloaded the new version, but I'm not allowed to put the verification code in.

The option is greyed out, so I can't use the bot. Help?

not sure why this double posted, sorry

Hi when i trying to buy any item i get parsing fail.

1. Add field "steamid_lister" in JSON class.
2. Add in ParseLotList method:
   if (ourItem.userId == myUserId) continue;

Try to add this in Post/Get Methods:
request.Timeout = 10000;
File: /scr/SCMBot/MainUtils.cs
Strings: 267, 322

Nevermind, was a misunderstanding. No bug here, I apologize.

From inventory + Empty items filter

Hello!
In latest build the program not reselling the bought items.
Everything stays in my inventory, I set the resell option to "Your price" and entered my value.

When scanning for a wished price, it doesn't react at all when the the item is on sale for the wished price. When clicking buy now, it hangs on "Buying "item name" in process...". When checking to an item from my inventory, the program freezes and crashes. My antivirus is disabled.

i signed in 1 time and after i signed out it gives me a microsoft.net framework error. InvalidArguement=Value of "0" is not valid for "index".

I click continue and try to login and it constantly says try login.

How do i fix this?

Looped Verifying Humanity

Hello, brazilian real wallet not working the bot shows error #82;$ in the wallet price and prices dont load i cant do anything it must be the line:

https://github.com/Maxx53/SCMBot/blob/master/scr/SCMBot/SteamUtils.cs#L165
Also the value is 7 not 4, i tried modification but no work

Avoids accidental purchase of renamed Item.

Edit: Check flag "This item has been renamed".

Items doesn't work i get error parsing fail and they have this added in the url: " id="resultlink_1

When i select item in my inventory by name it's going to show me the image of actual item selected, but not the one that i wanted to select...

http://prntscr.com/2y800p

Need a button to copy the settings page of items subject to the new arrivals.

When this error happens, log out of the bot, and close it. Log out of your steam account on steam completely. Open the bot and log in, and then re-open steam and log in. Be sure to login on the bot before you log into steam. Problem should be gone. If you lose connection or get a content empty error eventually, repeat and it will fix the problem.

It's only for demonstration of new Item Scanner interface. Main functions don't work properly.

Little enhancement

I've tested using both WineHQ and Monodevelop and I cannot get it to run properly.

Here's the issue:

• Upon saving the user settings selection the program will close down

Here are the error messages:
[ERROR] FATAL UNHANDLED EXCEPTION: System.NotImplementedException: The requested feature is not implemented.

So I'm guessing this is an issue with the way the program is saving the config file(s).
If you have any knowledge on getting around this issue please share!
I've rented a server to run your bot full-time and the server is an Ubuntu 12.04 server.

Thanks Maxx,

Hi Maxx,
here are some enhancements that came to mind.
First of, if i read the source correctly, it scans for each article itself. I would suggest to make a group option, for like searching the recent items. This would reduce load and give more connections for other scans.

Furthermore i would like to group the items i scan for. Its no good workflow if you have all items in a single tab, with the need to start them all 1by1.

An option to resume scanning when program starts would be nice.

Add a actual price for each item in the scan tabs, because most of the time, i need to start/stop them, see the actual price, change my wished price and the sell price and then start again. Displaying the actual market price in the Tab would help there.

Some stat tracking would help too. Gather the price informations while scanning, build normalized prices with it (if possible, i know not every item suits for that) and take that price as base for percent based buying. Something like, the price of this item was around 10€ the last 1000scans, so buy everything which is 80% of that. I could hook you up with some algos and logic for that. With that you could think about stuff like "recommend items because of stagnation" or "show most traded" or "event trading" etc.. But thats future, i know ^^

Alert when you type in a wrong price (e.g. if you put a price higher than the actual price into wished price)

Optional Alert sounds would be nice (when ingame or not rly in front of the screen, i would like to know when something is bought or sold) (if you need some sounds for that, i could do them too)

A test for the connection of the user, telling him how many connections per second should be allowed (not sure if thats easy to do, but its just a suggestion :))

Price/Quantity in search (e.g. i would like to search for things like "genuine > 10€" or "unusual < 100 pieces available"),

Is it possible to implement these Sold Graphs Steam is showing in the item screen ? something which would tell me if its going up/down lately ?

i could do more of these, but iam not sure if its kinda offending to you when i put these in here, so i stop here for now, tell you again that i very much appreciate your work and only want to aid you with these suggestions. Hopefully i can/could somehow help you with this. Keep it going, big thanks

/offtopic
is it possible for me to put in these tags like bug, enhancement, etc ? or is it admins work ? /

Is this a lack of optimization because of alpha or an internet problem? I have 20 up and 2 down, and noticed that after I specify about 40-50 scans, even at 5+ second delay, they start to slow down and frequently take 10+ seconds.

Thanks

Can you add some graphs, which shows price variability by time?

There is no prompt for steam username/password, and the login button only brings up the box that would ask for the code sent to your email by steam to verify a login AFTER a login attempt was made.

Am I missing something? Where can I enter a steam username and password?

Thanks

Edit: I am running off of the binary file download, the solution was unable to build on my computer
Edit2: Found a fix. It was a first-time-run issue. Simply re-downloading did not work though, I had to make a new directory for the executable.

Now I am stuck again: After clicking login, the button changes to X Cancel, the prompt for the email code no longer pops up, and at the bottom left a progress bar with label "Try Login..." is empty... any help?

Edit3: Back to having the popup for email code. The prompt for the email code and what nickname I would choose are both grayed out. I've seen others with this problem and they were told to wait...?

This is after downloading update 3/26/14 4:00 PM PST

Now we have RUB only

I downloaded the new version, but I'm not allowed to put the verification code in.

The option is greyed out, so I can't use the bot. Help?

Бот не логиниться. Пишет "Невозможно подключиться к серверу"

Hello, brazilian real wallet not working the bot shows error #82;$ in the wallet price and prices dont load i cant do anything it must be the line:

I think I have isolated the problem here but I don't have much knowledge of code so I couldn't help, but the problem with not being able to stop scans occurs when you try to stop a scan in the middle of the list.

If you stop the scans one at a time from the bottom of the list and go up 1 at a time, stopping each one, you can stop the scans. If you try to stop a scan in the middle of the list it won't work. Once you try to stop a scan that isn't on the bottom, you won't be able to stop it at all without restarting the program. Additionally, if you change any of the settings in the scan, such as wish price, quantity, etc while it is scanning, you will be unable to turn the scan off even if you put them back to what they were. I hope this helps.

Just added website http://scmbot.ru
Old url http://maxx53.github.io/SCMBot/ru
And first version of FAQ https://github.com/Maxx53/SCMBot/wiki/FAQ

Resources are available in two languages (english and russian).

В случае, если после разделителя в цене одна цифра, возможно неправильное выставление барьера покупки(не уверен).

I have about 20 scans going at a time but some items stop scanning after a certain amount of time (15-20 minutes). Is there a set number of how many items can be scanning at a time?
What does Number of parallel threads do? and is it possible to add a start and stop all scan button?

See you next week!

I have a few items in my list that keep getting content empty errors. I have tried adding/readding them to the list, restarting steam/program, etc.

Any ideas? All other ones are working fine.

Не на нашёл тут личные сообщения, поэтому спрошу здесь. Сейчас разбираюсь с вашим ботом и возникло несколько вопросов.

1. Бот сканирует вкладку New Listed? Ведь предметы сначала появляются там, а в своём разделе только через несколько секунд, таким образом купить хорошие предметы по низкой цене нереально.
2. Он работает с любой валютой или понимает только цены в рублях?
3. Опция Load Inventory не работает?

Hi, I have a problem with changing settings in the project:

But after adding "searchRes" in settings as a string I get something like this:

Thanks for help, sorry for my bad English :<

Just a quick question, it takes 7 days before you can buy/sell anything on steam when you login for the first time on SCMBot, right? Because of the verification thing when you login to steam from a new 'device'.

Kind regards
Preaches

Will be fixed in the next commit.
Problem in this string:
https://github.com/Maxx53/SCMBot/blob/master/scr/SCMBot/Main.cs#L764

Should be:

new saveTab(ourItem.Link);

Need to FIX JSON Class...

Sorry, delete this.

When trying to scan using the latest version was quickly stopped with the previous version works correctly.
