Sam Steam Achievement Manager

Will I get banned for using this?

There are 3rd-party programs such as the Steam Achievement Manager (SAM for short) which allows you to manipulate achievements at your whim. Note that developers who have locked achievements will prevent you from manipulating those. Download link: me if you didnt understand sometthingLike, Share and subscribe me for more videos, and su.

SAM - Steam Account Manager is a small, open-source application that can store multiple sets of credentials and log you into Steam with a single mouse click. Additionally, since it is portable, it.

Improbable, but everything is possible in this world, so far we have not seen a single person who said that his account got banned, steam does not ban accounts.

My achievements were reset!

Use the tool again? (Valve hasn't reset achievements since the original medic pack release)

The Announcer (hurr) took away my unlocked weapons!

OH NOES (I don't care).

Spacewar?

It's a sample game to demonstrate SteamWorks API to developers.

CHEATING! HACKING! EARN IT OMG! PLAY ON ACHIEVEMENT MAPS! YOU SUCK! ARRRRRRGGGGGHHH!

That wasn't a question.

Troubleshooting

Some games show IDs instead of names for achievements such as TF_KILL_NEMESIS

You're probably talking about Portal, Half-Life 2: Episode Two, and Team Fortress 2. These games had achievements before the system for achievements was really nailed down in a standard way, so some achievements do not get translated text from Steam, they get the IDs instead. This is a bug in Steam that simply hasn't been fixed because it's such a low issue that doesn't occur normally.

'generic error' (error #2)

Youdon't own the game or the game does not have achievements. If you or itreally does, restart Steam and see if the issue clears up.

Access Violation! BUH?!

Contact me through either SA or FP so I can work the issue out with you.

I WAS VAC BANNED

Dumbass. VAC is only active while you are playing in an VAC secured server and does not scan for steam achievement changes.

Steam Achievement Manager 6.3

If you do intend to use it, the usual applies with external tools that hook in with Steam, it's all done so at your own risk. I've never heard of anyone having an issue though, and since you can unlock achievements so easily it would seem pretty odd if Valve ever actually intervened.
