Aethez 25 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Hello! Two days ago I started working on a little project called snapshots.tf. I "finished" it yesterday and made it public. What's this? You might ask. Well, It's as simple as a website that creates and stores "images" of backpack.tf listings at said time. I made it too be able to track bad people that manipulate buy / sell orders. It currently saves 2 snapshots a second but I am looking to increase that amount ASAP. I will actively maintain the website and keep it up as long as possible. Currently it costs me around 15 euro / mo to keep up. Maybe I will put up donation bots? Or maybe some premium service that allows you to check super old snapshots? Who knows what will happen. The website requires no login at all, I don't know who does what. It also has an api at https://api.snapshots.tf/. Feel free to join the discord and leave suggestions. I hope you will enjoy it Website link: snapshots.tf (https://snapshots.tf) Vebster, NastyNate, awsommv and 11 others 5 3 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Strange 84 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 I mean, we have Gladiator.tf already, but I guess there's no harm in having a second site for snapshots. I checked the site myself and it works pretty well. Congrats mate Quote Link to post Share on other sites

In the future I might combine data from different sources, like prices.tf and the new upcoming trader.tf. I'm glad you like it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ajdislikesyournamingpolicy 136 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 Thank you for the development! Is it at all possible to get this in a tampermonkey form script where it will re-direct to the default page and then select a time and date for the item, similar to bot.tf and gladiator.tf snapshots?

It's possible to make it redirect to the page where you can select snapshots (example: https://snapshots.tf/snapshots/Burning Flames Team Captain) yes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
D.Alex 384 Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 ^ They're asking for the equivalent of https://github.com/mninc/gladiator.tf-stats-bptf And by the way it looks like there's also another snapshot service here: https://rain.tf/item/A Distinctive Lack of Hue Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Congrats mate The issue with gladiator If i am not mistaken at least one of the bot should be buying or selling that item to get a snapshot @aethez does your site work on every single page? 1 hour ago, D.Alex said: And by the way it looks like there's also another snapshot service here: https://rain.tf/item/A Distinctive Lack of Hue okay I actually did not know Rain had this feature, thanks alex Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It currently does not support fesitivized nor does it support skins. If this is a requested feature then sure I'll take a look. The way it currently works is it goes through a list of items and takes snapshots. To add items to that list you have to go to https://snapshots.tf/request where you can paste the full item name and click request and it will be added to the list. Keep in mind that it can take up 1-3 hours to get the first snapshot of the item. The time is depending on the amount of items we are currently saving snapshots for.

I'm assuming you got marked as a bot because you are automated. It's because it's called "automatic" on the api. So I changed it to "Automated" to minimalize the confusion.
