UI Updates
The in game workshop tools have also received a large update.Workshop Updates
The in game Dota 2 workshop compiler has been updated with support for couriers and wards.
Cosmetic ward support, with two materials – one for the observer, the other for the sentry ward.
The courier submission requires separate model submissions for the ground and flying versions.
The couriers require the model, textures, animations and attachment points for the hit location and the two eyes (for unusual effect support).
Testing a custom courier, each animation can be selected.
You can flip between the ground/flying versions of the courier as well as switch between the different camera modes.
A new feature is the attachment highlight which will help debug any bone issues etc.
It is also now possible to equip multiple compiled models and preview them in game using the workshop preview tools.
We have an additional camera mode which lets you preview the items from a hero portrait point of view.
Cosmetic Item Updates
Some small update’s to one of Tidehunter’s existing cosmetic items.Tidehunter’s Items
Tidehunter’s Recluse Reef Denizen has been updated with cloth physics and is no longer stiff as a dead duck.
New Gamemode
The “Least Played” gamemode that I referenced in last week’s update has now been added into the game and is available in both match making and private lobbies.“Players can only choose from a list of their least played heroes! This mode is great for learning new heroes since everyone will be on equal footing.” *
* The top 20 winning heroes for each player will be disabled. Heroes with less than 3 wins will not be disabled.
Other Changes
