Hey guys, where can I find the hitboxes for the hero models? The files Valve provides don’t include them, and the SMD file doesn’t have it either.

But duplicate your low poly uv unwrap using “project from bounds” apply a gradient to the mesh and bake using the regular UVs

What resolution should loading screens be handed in? And what format?

Is it possible to change a hero’s texture for a set?
I want to make a set for Sand king , but his chest needs some texture adjustments. is this possible?

Hi all. Im Tomislav, and im new to all this, bout 3d modeling and drawing via PC. And basically im stuck at the very beginning. After almost 2 weeks of googling, watching tutorials, reading forums and official steam dota 2 workshop guide, reading thru all this, im stuck at the very basic question as i was 2 weeks ago. What programs should i actually use? Im downloaded trial versions of maya, 3ds max and full latest version of blender. Maya 2015 was my first choice, but as i find out that MESA plug in don’t work in it. 3ds max have working plugins but only untill version 2012. At least, that is as far as i was able to find out via google. So, i decided to go with blender. Its free, plus i kind of like it more then 3ds max, especially that 2012 version of max. BUT, as i started to learn and go true tutorials, i find out there are some problems with blender and assigning materials to model and some other stuff that are science fiction for me, i don’t understand what they mean cause im a complete noob in 3d art. I have zero experience in it. But i do have big desire and a will to learn it all, and make my own items for dota 2 with realistic chance of getting them accepted in the shop. So with this prolongued introduction, im finally got to the point of making questions for you:

1. With “blender is free, others are not” put a side for now, what is the program that is the most “dota 2 friendly”? I don’t want to spend months of learning blender and hard work on my item, and then to discover it wont ever be accepted cause of some compatibility isues with something in dota 2 engine.

2. Among you, are there people who actually made items with blender that got accepted in to shop? If yes, please post me every plug in, every extension, and other stuff i will need for it. There are many tutorials on google what to use with blender, but there are not so much up to date with latest version of blender. If there are not people who published item that got in to shop via blender, then back to question 1.

3. For drawing in zbrush or similar specifically for dota 2, do you use tablet with some pencil or something? Should i invest in tablet? If so, can you recommend me some optimal, not to expensive, yet not the worst tablet i need to get the job done.

Sorry for such long question, but im starting to get frustrated for not yet starting to learn how to work in programs and do stuff cause i feel like im stuck and going around in circles. There is so many information i got in this short time, learned so many things, yet im still at the starting point, and finish is very far away. Tnx
