GIVEAWAYS ARENA

[BlackEspGarb]

I already have it as well.
It's for Painkiller Redemption
You can create a giveaway or just give it to someone that doesn't have it.
But thanks anyway

I wouldn't mind taking it

I showed you a key that did. I've also seen it happen when they rename their game. Some names are used by multiple games too. They asked if you could trust it, and while the activation message displayed is accurate, you can't just go off that. You have to actually click to see what it is.

I too never had issues with the plugin, been using it for years. But, as with every project - there might be hiccups...

Another way to check which game it is - is through the developer tools, Network tab. Then try to claim the key and look for the "post" request, something like:

Then in the "Response" tab - look for "line items", it'll tell you the name of the game. You'll see that with your key steam returns "Over City" and not "Panda Run" so in this, if the game was indeed "Panda Run" - it's a probably a problem on steam side and not steamdb.

If you click on the SteamDB link, it says Panda Run. There's also another Panda Run game that isn't delisted.

Thanks for the info. Will check with some used keys.

Thanks for the info. Will check with some used keys.

Here's a full screenshot (Firefox):


1. Open "Developer tools" (Ctrl-Shift-I)
2. Select the "Network" tab
3. Press the button to (try to) claim the game
4. Select the post request line
5. Select the "Response" tab
6. look for the name under "line items"

Is this doable from the web, without the extension? If yes, it should be possible to make a script to POST/GET the key from the terminal and parse the result.

The "post method" doesn't require the extension. That's the response from steam - it has nothing to do with steamdb - in the example above I ran it without the extension.

Using steam will need the user id and the api key to check while using the steamdb should not.

Will check by the weekend.

Appart from steam and steamdb, it can be done as a javascript boormarklet, using any firefox scripting addon and the easier one, asf. As easy as typing redeem <key> or !r <key> and it throws the same result.

Knowing I can use asf I won't waste time on the script...

Thanks everyone for sharing the info about this.
