Steam Game Downloader

[jljr222]

I was looking to redownload the steam files for Counter-Strike: Source and attempted to use the "Steam game downloader" tool. However when I try to download the files using anonymous (which is what you should use) it tells me I need to have a password. Is this a bug? Why is the password required if you need to use anonymous to download the server files when updating?

I had this same issue once.

All I had to do was set the steam settings thing to

 

Username:anonymous

 

password: leave this blank

 

Make sure you don't have a specific steam setting in the css configuration.

Do you mean the "Default Steam Account"? It's currently set to anonymous as well.

 

I also double-checked the settings in each game config and they are blank which means they use the default steam account. So I think this is indeed a bug.

You can try to remove all files but the steamcmd.exe in the tools folder relating steamcmd.

My particular issue is happening on LINUX, not windows.

Set the user to anonymous and set any password.
