PLEASE MAKE SURE IF YOU ARE HAVING PROBLEMS DOWNLOADING FROM GOOGLE DRIVE, TRY DIFFERENT BROWSERS, CLEAR YOUR CACHE, COOKIES, ETC. THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE DOWNLOAD.

Dota 2 is an Action RTS game, developed by Valve Corporation. The title was formally announced on October 13, 2010; and is set to release in 2012 by Valve, through both retail and Steam, for Windows and OS X. It is the successor to the very popular Warcraft 3 mod, Defense of the Ancients, which was based on Aeon of Strife map for StarCraft. It will be released as a Free to Play game.

Dota 2 is a combination of RTS including perspective and a heavy requirement of tactics and team co-ordination and RPG including itemization and leveling up. The main objective in Dota 2 is to destroy the enemy Ancient Structureinside their stronghold, these strongholds are protected by multiple towers down 3 lanes. The player controls a Hero which fights for them and gains strength by leveling up by getting experience, which is given when creeps and heroes die, and by itemization by buying items with gold. Gold is gained passively over time, killing creeps, killing enemy heroes and buildings. You can prevent the enemy gaining as much gold and experience by denying creeps and buildings.

Personal Notes:
This port had been my greatest success. I have worked on it for months now, and i'm proud to be the porter. Gameplay is smooth for me, with slight graphical glitches (non that are game breaking). Please visit my website at vindictivestudios.webs.com for the latest downloads in the future.

IF YOU ARE AN ATI/AMD GPU USER, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT YOU HAVE THE LATEST VERSION OF MOUNTAIN LION INSTALLED!! YOU WILL EXPERIENCE ISSUES WITHOUT THE NEWEST VERSION OF MOUNTAIN LION!! THE PORT IS RATED GREEN FOR ATI/AMD ONLY WITH THE NEWEST MOUNTAIN LION!!

Known Issues:
- *Most likely NOT playable on high setting for Shadows and Textures.
- *Some users have experienced microphone issues.
- Steam Overlay does not work.
- *You may experience slight graphical glitches like invisible water (the river in the middle).
- Portraits do not appear correctly.

* means the issue is dependent on the version of the wrapper you're using or the fact that it is a known issue for some only.

If you encounter lag, or "Failed to lock vertex buffer in CMeshDX8::LockVertexBuffer", try these( v1.2 should fix this error):

Go to launch options and put -dxlevel 80 for 8.0 or -dxlevel 81 for 8.1

If that does not work, try the other fixes below.


AMD Gradient Issue fix:


Keyboard fix:
In steam, right click Dota 2
Select and click on Properties
Click Set Launch Option
and paste this in:
-novid -nod3d9ex -windowed -w 1280

Then,

1. Launch Dota
2. Go to Graphics Options
3. Change Display mode from Fullscreen to windowed (if you didn't change your launch options by adding -windowed).
4. Pull the Dota window to the side and click on your Steam window
5. Click on your Dota window again
6. Change display mode to fullscreen again
7. If it shows OSX elements on the top and bottom of your screen you have to:
7a. leave the options
7b. enter the video options again and apply fullscreen again in a different resolution (you can also try hitting cmd+alt+a but at this point it might result in the game freezing. After your got your fullscreen mode to work properly - with the graphics options only - you can use the cmd+alt+a combination at any time)

and yes - you have to do this everytime you start the game.

Installation:
Please make sure you are a Beta tester for the game and you actually OWN IT YOURSELF on Steam.

1. Launch the wrapper
2. Steam might update so just let it.
3. Steam's login window will appear, simply log-in with YOUR account details.
