What is Whitelist mode?

Whitelist mode is made to have you fully control the games that Idle Master Extended will start processes for.

This idling mode should mainly be used to idle Steam games for hours (not card drops). This mode will ignore if the game has card drops remaining or not.

Step-by-step

  • Find the Steam game ID

    • Alternative 1: Copy the ID from the Steam Store URL
      • e.g. store.steampowered.com/app/628670/Hellpoint/, where 628670 is the ID
    • Alternative 2: Find the ID on SteamDB: https://steamdb.info/
  • Add the game to the Whitelist (File > Whitelist > Add Game to Whitelist > App ID: > Add > Save)

  • Set Idle Master Extended to use Whitelist mode (File > Settings > Idling Behavior > Whitelist mode) and save the settings
