Dota 6.66b Bug, Exploits & Trick | Dota-Allstars 6.66b Bug

Dota 6.66b looks like has some bug that can be abused. Even though it's not game breaking, you can still use it for your own advantages ;) The first bug is on Pitlord's Firestorm, Bristleback's Viscous Nasal Goo will instantly stopped it as you can see on below video.



The second one is a plain bug and we cannot abuse it at all, but it still funny to see it :)



Lastly, it's the famous Dota Tricks IV. I know it's been out there for a while, but i didn't have the chance to post it.



Thanks to Kuarinofu who always show us some bug/exploits on every Dota version. If you found some other bugs/exploits on Dota 6.66b, feel free to drop a comment. Enjoy guys! :)

Updates: Check out the Dota 6.66b Fatal Error Abuse!

Play Multiple Warcraft 3 Instance on One Computer Using kLoader

Play Multiple Warcraft Patch
Do you ever feel that you want to test certain abilities which need 2 heroes on different side, but you don't have friends for it? Well, i do.. Of course there's always Dota AI map which can help you to do some testing, but we cannot control the enemy AI player as we like. But don't worry, Kolkoo a.k.a Aegis from the D3Scene forums has found a way out. With his tool, now you can play two instance of Warcraft 3 Game on one PC.


Here is what he said about this tool:

You type the full path to war3.exe in the config.txt file as well as any command line arguments you want to use Start W3MultipleLoader and it will Launch Warcraft III for you, you can run as many as you want. Yes the loader modifies the wc3 code but it cleans up after the game is loaded and unloads itself so it should be completely safe to use. Have fun

Download Link
Download kLoader via GameWebZ

How to Setup
==================
1. Open the Config.txt
2. Enter the full path to your warcraft III TFT
3. Save
4. Ready to go

Enjoy it guys! I know some of you will need this tool :)

Dota Advanced Jungling Guide - Choke Neutrals Creeps

Do you like jungling heroes like Nai'x or Troll Warlord? Well, you're lucky, i got a video which can greatly help improves your jungling skill. As you know, the different between jungling and creep pulling is your heroes is alone. Which means, you take all the damage from the neutral creeps. That's why every jungling guide always recommends you to buy Stout Shield.

However, with this technique, you can have less damage from the neutral creeps by only allows one of them to hit you while in the same time you hit them. Of course, this tricks is not for Axe or Dark Seer which want many enemies gather at once. I suggest Nai'x (Lifestealer) and Troll Warlord for practicing this trick. Ok, enough talk, let's just watch the video! ;)




The video show you how to spawn multiple neutral creeps and then defeat them one by one by trapped them on the choke point. Enjoy! ;)

Dota Reconnection Tool is Almost Done!

DotA 6.66b AI 0.2141Remember the Varlock Dota reconnection project that IceFrog told us before? The project seems work smoothly and might as well released on the near future. IceFrog already doing some test with the Dota reconnection tool and the dropped player can reconnect to the game a few moment later. Sweet! Here is what IceFrog said about this project:



The first version of Varlock's reconnection tool is almost ready for release. We've been testing it in real DotA games for the past few weeks and it has worked very well. We've had many players disconnect only to reconnect moments later, saving otherwise lost games.

The code for this tool (both client and server) will be open source so that anyone can build upon it and integrate it into their platforms and communities.
I really hope that this tool can be used for a lot of gaming platform, like Garena or Battle.net. Wish Dota 6.67 released along with this awesome tool :)

Dota 6.67 has New Game Mode and Zoom Features!

DotA 6.67 UpdateIceFrog has just made a post about the new features for Dota 6.67. The first one is the zoom ability for the observers. As you know, it's pretty difficult to keep touch with all part of the Dota game with the current Warcraft 3 default view. This update hopefully will help the observer maintain a larger area and can spot the interesting event faster. Another one is a new game mode, Capture Point! How long since we got a new game mode guys? I can't remember it. Capture Point is kinda fun mode with bonus aura for your team if you manage to capture it. Curious? Check out the complete quote from IceFrog blog:
Hey guys, I just want to share some small information about the upcoming patch. It is too early for me to give a complete list of features or changes to expect, so I'll just be sharing a couple of small features as a sneak peak.


First, I've implemented a zoom mode for observers to allow spectators and shout casters to see a larger part of the battlefield rather than the current view.

The second is a Capture Point action style game mode. It is designed to be a short fun mode with lots of movement and action, as a break from the usual stuff. There will be many capture points (6+) spread around the map that, when captured, will provide various auras (Damage, Armor, Gold, Regen, Movement Speed, etc) for your team depending on which one is captured. The Capture Points all spawn after the first 10 minutes of the game. You gain control of a CP by standing on it for a certain amount of time (the more allies the faster). Capture Points can always be reclaimed by the enemy team after it is taken or it can also be interrupt during the capturing process itself. Keep in mind that all the mechanics and numbers are not final yet.

These are just two misc things in 6.67 that I wanted to share with you guys. There will of course be more work done on improving the current content with balancing and misc features. If there is something specific you want to see, don't hesitate to let me know.

Ok, this update is make me kinda excited. It's been a while since we got a new fun game mode. Too many serious game can make us stressed a lot and WTF mode sometime is too rigged. Hope this new mode can be an alternative to find a new joy ;)

Dota 6.66b AI 0.214 Crashing! (Fatal Error)

DotA-Allstars 6.66b AI 0.214Dota 6.66b AI 0.214 seems has some bug which will cause the game crashing (Fatal Error). This problem once occur around Dota 6.48 AI map where Lanaya's ulti caused the game to crash. And those problem is occur again on this version. The skills that can crash your game are Slark's Pounce, Ursa's Overpower and Visage's Summon Familiars. Fortunately BuffMePlz already aware of it and trying to rewrite those skills to avoid crashing again. Here's what he said about this problem:


Looking over the code, looks like Slark's Pounce, Ursa's Overpower and Visage's Summon Familiars will need to be rewritten, as they will cause conflicts with the AI script and result in WC3 crashing.

If you find a crash unrelated to any of these three heroes, let me know. I'm working on a fix for the aforementioned abilities.

-dm is still known to be unstable on the AI map. Until I figure out why it will continue to be so.

Hopefully he can solve that soon and release the fixed Dota 6.66b AI :) If you found another bug, feel free to share it here.

Update: BuffMePlz already fix it and release Dota 6.66b AI 0.2141
