Description:

This shader emulates Valve's DOTA2 Hero Shader to allow rendering of DOTA 2 assets in Eevee and Cycles. The shader uses the same parameters as Valve's Material Editor, available as part of the DOTA2 Workshop Tools.

Please note that this blend includes the shader setup only, there are no models or textures included. These are freely available through the DOTA 2 Workshop.

A user guide is available here.

    Thanks! I have also just uploaded some small tools for generating warp textures, should anyone wish to play with custom light or colour warps. The blend should be available shortly... http://www.blendswap.com/blends/view/85186

    Ah... There was but I need to re-write it. There's a version 3.0 coming out that is much, much more accurate. If you can hang tight for another week or so I'll see what I can do.

    Dota 2 has certain betting offers and habits; check out Dota 2 betting tips. While general trends in esports show players favoring player-specific markets and a relatively even distribution of live and pre-game bets, almost everyone, like me, bets live. Due to the complex gameplay and unique mechanics, operators can offer specialized Dota 2 betting markets to make the betting experience more exciting.
