Description:

Automatically finds all installed Steam/Epic games and their respective Steamworks/Epic Online Services DLL locations on the user's computer, automatically parses SteamCMD, Steam Store, and Epic Games Store for those games' DLCs, then provides a very simple graphical interface utilizing the gathered information.

The primary function of the program is to automatically generate and install CreamAPI or ScreamAPI for whichever games and DLCs the user selects, however through the use of the right-click context menu the user can also:

• automatically repair the Paradox Launcher
• open the parsed SteamCMD/GraphQL AppInfo in Notepad
• refresh the parsed SteamCMD/GraphQL AppInfo
• open Root directories or Steamworks/Epic Online Services DLL directories in Explorer
• open SteamDB/ScreamDB/Steam Store/Epic Games Store/Steam Community links in the default browser

---

Features:

• Automatic downloading and installing of SteamCMD (if a Steam game is chosen). for gathering appinfo such as name, buildid, listofdlc, depots
• Automatic gathering and caching of appinfo for ALL installed Steam and Epic games and ALL of their DLCs.
• Automatic generation of cream_api.ini/ScreamAPI.json configuration and installation of CreamAPI/ScreamAPI DLLs.
• Automatic uninstallation of CreamAPI/ScreamAPI DLLs and cream_api.ini/ScreamAPI.json configuration.
• Automatic repairing of the Paradox Launcher via the right-click context menu "Repair" option. for when the launcher updates whilst you have CreamAPI or ScreamAPI installed to it

Installation:

1. Click here to download the latest release from GitHub.
2. Extract the executable to anywhere on your computer you want. it's completely self-contained

NOTE: This program does not automatically download nor install actual DLC files for you. As the title of the program says, it's only a CreamAPI/ScreamAPI installer. Should the game you wish to unlock DLC for not already come with the DLCs installed (very many do not), you have to find, download, and install those yourself. Preferably, you should be referring to the proper cs.rin.ru post for the game(s) you're tinkering with; you'll usually find any answer to your problems there.

Usage:

1. Start the program executable.
2. Choose which programs/games the program should scan for DLC. the program automatically gathers all installed games from Steam and Epic directories
3. Wait for the program to download and install SteamCMD (if you chose a Steam game). very fast, depends on internet speed
4. Wait for the program to gather and cache the chosen Steam/Epic games' appinfo & DLCs. may take a good amount of time on the first run, depends on how many games you chose and how many DLCs they have
5. CAREFULLY select which games' DLCs you wish to unlock. CreamAPI and ScreamAPI are not tested for every game!
6. Click the Generate and Install button.
7. Click the OK button to close the program.
8. If CreamAPI or ScreamAPI don't work for any of the games you installed them on, simply go back to step 5 and select what games you wish you revert changes to, and instead click the Uninstall button this time.
