Changes:
- Added support for secure statistics.
- Statistics will now display names instead of their ID when available.
You can download the new version of Steam Achievement Manager on its page.
Comment in this post if you’re having issues with the new version.
There has not and will not ever be a virus or trojan in SAM downloads provided through my site, if some random obscure virus scanner picks something up, it’s a false positive.

Some people reported an issue with L4D2 in the last update, if you still have that issue, please tell me exactly what you’re trying to modify, thanks.
Hey rick, got some l4d2 error messages
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
I have not try to mod any stats yet, I open SAM for l4d2 and this pops out
This is probably a stupid question but wth… why the red orchestra 2 achievements have a red thingy on it?
Thanks.
It means it’s a protected achievement and can’t be unlocked with SAM.
In Red Orchestra 2 when i want change stats or kills weapons SAM can’t change it
And?
Move along, this lowlife cant make it work
Move along, this lowlife cant complete the game himself.
FIX THE TF2 ERROR GOD DAMN. >:I
Getting a “Unhandled exception error” when I try to launch your POS. FIX NOW.
hello
been using SAM for a while for only a couple of games and it useful for the last 4 or 5 achievements you missed while playing
I’d like to use it for some achievements in Red Faction Guerrilla but it keeps telling me “Error retrieving stats: generic error”
any help ?
I was wondering if you could make it possible to unlock achievements for games even if you don’t own the game.
Not possible.
hi
unfortunately unaware of this application (SAM) and tried to edit the perks of the killing floor but by mistake i changed to a very high value
now I can’t “reduse” the value, always get an error (“occured an error while setting the value for FlameThrowerDamage, aborting store”)
you can help me for my level back to its initial state please?

Sorry for my “bad” english, i’m try my best xD
Is there a way to allow SAM to update achievements for games I don’t own?
No.
Unhandled error. Still getting it.
You have a habit of not listening to people who have errors.
I am a busy person. I will get to it when I can.
Can you please link to the Steamworks info about “serverside” achievements? I fail to see why SAM could not pretend to be the game to spoof it?…
Achievements can be flagged as ‘serverside’ which indicates they can only be granted through a known and authenticated server (ie, dedicated/MMO servers).
Hey Rick, thanks for the program, it works perfectly and it’s very useful.
Hey Rick, I can’t see the achievements for CrimeCraft Gang wars, and I really don’t want to download 10gigs worth of shit for a game that I’ll play 2 hours until I get my coal. Is this an error with SAM or is it not added yet or what? I’d rather pass of the game completely if I can’t SAM the achievement I need.
Thanks for the little helper by the way, you sir are a gentleman, and a scholar.
Hi.

Yes.
Hey,
People that have used SAM for the Steam holiday thing are worried they’re going to get banned.
If they used SAM as instructed, is it likely they will be caught?
I tried unlocking achievements in Left 4 Dead, but it only unlocks them in my profile (the Webpage). Ingame they are still locked. Any solution for this problem?
Um, I tried this on spiral knights, but it says it’s locked, help?
