The black box is there because I don't know how to disable unit portraits without turning off health bars. Anyone know how to do this?


Are these commands useful?

Unfortunately, no, that page says what the problem is: the only way to disable portraits is to disable all HUD elements (and I want health bars so that's not an option.)

could you record it twice from the exact same camera angles? once with HUD disabled once without? and then edit in the HP bars?

I'm not sure how I would get the camera to do the same thing twice.

just showed my GF who only played LoL and she was surprised how much better Dota 2 looks compared to LoL.
Sadly the game is way too challenging on mechanics for her to play, otherwise I would dive back into Dota scene too

hand her lion and explain to her that she's really squishy. and she'll have a good time with little need for mechanics. impale/earth spike are pretty easy to hit, hex is hard to miss, and mana drain alleviates the LoL -> dota shock of actually having to manage your mana.

This is the first dota video I ever watched. I have no idea what was happening but it did look pretty!

Keep in mind this game is still in beta. Once out, it should burn the earth under the feet of any "similar" games.

it's kinda complete, isn't it? I don't see why it is still in beta stage when pros can already play competitive games on it

Some heroes are still missing and many details still need polishing. They are even working on some single player campaign to introduce new players. Most of all, the game is not as available and marketed as it would be when out. Casuals don't investigate that currently beta keys are super easy to find (practically everywhere).

The sequencing of stuns to literally silence/stun magnus out for over 10 seconds was incredible play by Mouz.
