An open-source script that automatically Cracks (removes DRM from) Steam games
Setup tip: you can paste text by using the right click.
Left clicking will automatically copy the selected text, so don't do that.
- Automatically cracks your bought or pirated Steam games. You only need to enter the Game Name or AppID.
- Cracks Steam API DRM by applying and configuring Steam Emulators automatically
- Cracks Steam Stub DRM by applying Steamless on executables automatically
- No Steam account or Steam API key needed
- Configurable to your liking
- Option to only unlock DLCs for your bought Steam games instead of cracking them entirely
- Option to choose your own Steam Emu thanks to a simple config template system (default: ALI213)
- Open source, transparent and privacy focused. No hidden analytics or weird things!
Screenshots from v1.0.0, they might be a bit outdated.
Setup:
Cracking phase 1:
Cracking phase 2:
- An internet connection (SAC will do requests to
steampowered.com
to retrieve AppIDs and DLCs) - If you use the compiled .exe:
- 64 bits Windows
- If you use the python file (source):
- The
requests
module. Install withpy -m pip install requests
orpython -m pip install requests
orpython3 -m pip install requests
- The
pywin32
module (which contains win32api). Install withpy -m pip install pywin32
orpython -m pip install pywin32
orpython3 -m pip install pywin32
- If you have any problem, please check https://pypi.org/project/pywin32/
- I think Python 3+ is needed.
- The
Some DLCs in some games requires you to download additional files.
This tool is not able to download those files, you'll have to get a clean version of them.
You can get clean Steam files for games (and sometimes DLCs) in the Steam Content Sharing section from cs.rin.ru
Compiled using auto-py-to-exe
SAC will do requests to steampowered.com
(Steam's official website) to retrieve AppIDs and DLCs.
It is not bannable, and won't cause you problems.
Nothing is logged by SAC.
You can delete the SAC folder at any time and there won't be any leftovers. *
* Exception to leftovers:
- There will be some leftovers if you use the compiled exe. This is due to how PyInstaller / auto-py-to-exe works. An embedded version of Python and the python script itself will be extracted to the temp-folder of your OS. The folder will be named
_MEIxxxxxx
, where xxxxxx is a random number. You can delete the folder at any time after using the program, as it might not correctly delete itself in all cases. Please check the pyinstaller documentation for more infos.
You could get a virus detection on some files. The biggest offender is sac_emu\game\steam_api.dll
.
A lot of cracking tools are detected as malware, either because their behavior is suspect (bypass game protections), or because they have been flagged manually (happens with a lot of tools).
If you're suspicious about the legitimacy of the files, just delete the DLLs and use your owns instead.
You can discuss with others about the tool in cs.rin.ru or in the GitHub issues.
