Any way to bypass the TF2 no idling crap?

Dat pain brah, dat pain.

yes, don't sleep, drink lots lots of coffee and stay alive for 2 weeks..

Run TF2 windowed at minimum video settings while playing something else normally. Check back on TF2 here and there.

AHK script to click in the relevant location every hour?

I'm glad they introduced it. Smartasses want easy money for nothing.

Nope.

I am late to this party, but I have been running 200 accounts weekly for the last 2 years. Since the most recent idle patches, I found the easiest way to continue my farm is to run multiple copies inside of VM Workstation. If you have the resources, it is pretty simple. I have been using AutoHotKey to hit space every 10 seconds for the last 4 or 5 months without a problem.

Damn, why can't people just play the game? Be a Man(n) and earn you items the right way.

I remember a time when games were about having fun and playing and not about idling for some random items.

Play another game and quit wasting your time on that.

I think this is what you need OP

Idling is against the rules anyway.

Dude, it's really not that hard.

1. Launch game.
2. Options. Windowed mode. 640x480. Lowest graphics. Join an idle server or make one with sv_lan 0.
3. Leave game in background. Go on SteamGifts. Listen to music. Do whatever you normally do.
4. After about 30 minutes, check TF2. Press Escape. Look for a notification and click it.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you hit the drop limit, usually around 10-12.

Basically, launch TF2 whenever you're on your computer and close it when you're not on.
