Description

The MiSteamSuite comprises of a set of tools to help you take control over your Steam experience.

The tools share a common library that allows for fast and efficient maintenance of sourcecode across the entire suite, particularly the more complex aspects of Steam like cache and blob file processing.

The MiSteamSuite has been designed in such a way that you can use any of the tools either together or as a single application.

Credits

This suite of tools was only possible with code, concepts, help and documentation from the following people:

Suite Programs

MiSteam
Allows you to use Valve's Steam client exactly how you want.
You can pick which subscriptions you want Steam to use per user.
You can force Steam into offline mode.
You can hot load users directly from MiSteam, removing the need to log in and out of Steam.
You can configure cd keys per application to be applied prior to launching Steam.
Steam itself remains unaltered and its files are not patched in any way shape or form. Only your user account subscription record is modified.

well i feel embarressed lol
ty ur so helpful
hey why when i run MiSteam its jst light blue i cant see the words & i already downloaded .net framework
i still dnt get how 2 download games..
how do i get the required files & stuff like that?
 
All those files are parts of one big folder.
When you've downloaded them all you do is open:
COD.part01.rar
Then extract all the files.

It'll automatically find part 2,3,4 etc until its finished extracting the files.
 
alright, one more noob question and ill leave you guys alone. ahaahaha

do i still need a cd key to run this? cause i was hoping that i would be recognized as a person who bought the game, so i can play on real servers and not cracked ones.

i came to a slight disappointment when i couldnt find a step by step tut on how exactly to use misteam :/ woot for randomly clicking things and just guessing on what to do :p but im sure a well put together tut would help answer alot of questions that the "newbies" are asking ;)
 
what do you choose when it asks for a cache folder when opening misteamprep


Also why when i select a game to subscribe to it does not appear in my libraries
 
Well i got tropico 3, so how do i use this? theres no read me or anything so im clueless :p. just wana know how to get tropico 3 working. i downloaded it and put it into the steamapps common, when i run it steam servers are to bussy... so is there any step by step thing like nitestalkr was talking about? thanks :)
 
I CANNOT get misteamprep to detect my GCF files for HL2, HL2 Deathmatch and HL2 Episode 2 no matter what I try on my offline pc.
