Simple steam workshop downloader using steamcmd.

List of supported games for anonymous download: https://steamdb.info/sub/17906/apps/

USAGE

Download the release, extract and run "downloader.exe". Enter one or more workshop URLs, then press "Download".

The files will be downloaded to the steamcmd/steamapps/workshop/content/<appID>/<workshop ID> folder by default.

Collections are also supported now.

WARNING

The first download can take several minutes, since steamcmd needs to download/update itself. After that, initiation of the download(s) should only take a few seconds. When downloading many and/or large items, the window might stop responding while the download is ongoing.

CONFIGURATION

Open the downloader.ini file with any text editor and change or add the relevant values:

[general] section

  • steampath : Location of the steamcmd.exe the program should use (either relative or absolute path)
  • theme : Color scheme to use. Currently supported are 'default', 'sdark', 'solar, black' and 'white'.
  • batchsize : Amount of items to download per batch. Low values cause a higher overhead when downloading many items (perhaps 5s per batch), while high values may cause issues on some systems. On Windows, the highest usable value seems to be about 700. Default is 50. Should be safe to increase to 500 in most cases.
  • login : Steam username
  • passw : Steam password

If both login and passw are provided, it will try a non-anonymous login before downloading. When using 2FA, manual configuration of steamcmd might be neccassary.

[appid] sections

  • path : Where downloaded mods for a certain game should be moved. Old versions of the mods in this location will be overwritten.

Example of a modified downloader.ini

[general]
steampath = steamcmd
theme = solar
batchsize = 500
login = user123
passw = 123456
