In my autoexec.cfg I have this:

bind "c" "dota_item_execute 1"
bind "t" "dota_item_execute 2"
bind "g" "dota_item_execute 3"
bind "v" "dota_item_execute 4"
bind "space" "dota_item_execute 5"


However my config.cfg lists both the above hotkeys but it also adds hotkeys from 1-4 and mouse4+mouse5 on every single startup. As soon as I'm ingame those are the hotkeys the game wants me ot use, if I load the config.cfg at that point both keysetups show up.

What am I doing wrong? T_T


i've the same problem too. my other .cfg files automatically get included in the config.cfg files even if i don't enable them.
the only thing i've done to stop this is to delete all the 'extra' commands in config.cfg files and reopen the dota 2 client.
if you've found a better solution, all the better.

http://dev.dota2.com/showthread.php?t=3733&highlight=multi monitor

I'm not sure what the status is, maybe this has been fixed in some way... idk

Just on this, if you have 16:10 monitor (1920x1200) the best way is just to run 1920x1080 resolution in borderless window. It gets letterboxed, but thats great because you have easy access to the taskbar too.

You could also run 1920x1080 in fullscreen but it will get stretched and screw up the aspect ratio.



erm so anyone knows which aspect/resolution is it better to run dota 2 on?

Wait, can I just delete the entire content of the config.cfg and everything will be fine? :o

As to which aspect/resolution is best for maximum viewability: 16: 9 - compared to 16:10 it adds a little viewable space on both borders.

Obviously 4:3 is inferior to both of the above.

Entire content..? sounds risky. xD
i'm not too sure, never tried it.
maybe you could ask tauon.
we came up with a few codes while working together once.

so technically, 16: 9 is slightly better?

so my computer is so slow, it can only run dota 2 on 640x480. But its widescreen. When I set it to 4:3, it stretches the image.

Is there a way to get it to letterbox? I don't want to change my resolution every time I launch the game.

You can try it via rightclick in steam -> properties -> launch options if you want to run a custom resolution.

An example of what I have to use to get it to run in windowed borderless mode and 16: 9 resolution (for some reason I can't set this exact res ingame but works completely fine via launch options):
-windowed -noborder -h 1440 -w 2560

So basically for you it should probably be around "-fullscreen -h xxxx -w xxxx", just replace with the height/width you want in there.

Generally that's a monitor or graphics card setting, with regard to how it handles non-native resolutions.

ok ill try that...(edit: it didnt work, i think theyango is right)

i was also thinking about adjusting that option that makes the actual game look more pixely but the hud stays crisp. i forget what it's called, i remember using it on my old laptop. does anyone remember what that is? It would be like reducing the render quality slider to below 50%, but i've been searching online using the search term "render quality" and can't find it.

My game freezes during big battles, any way to fix it?. I've tried the lines in the "Internet Connection" section. Doesn't really help.

anyone has a similar problem like me where your config files will keep reverting back to original even though you have already saved it beforehand?

This File Has Been Modified By Another Program. Would You like To Reload It?" Whenever i press yes it changes back to the original config file, and whenever i press no the file doesn't change, but my server reads it as the original config file.

Man i hate last hitting with right click, not even thinking about denying with it. A + left click feels so much batter

A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.
