Dota 2 Update - 9/1/2023

Since releasing The Summer Client Update we've addressed a number of issues:

• Fixed a bug that would appear to allow you to commend/dislike the same player multiple times in postgame

• Fixed an issue that would sometimes cause behavior score or communication score to get set to 0 incorrectly (the affected accounts have had their appropriate scores restored)

• Re-added the ability to rotate your hero with mousewheel in the Armory and pregame

• Re-added the ability to demo custom terrains

• In games where the majority of connected players have a behavior score too low to allow them to pause the game, those players will now be able to unpause if the game has been paused for at least 5s

• Added persona selector to pregame loadout

• Added slot headings to pregame loadout

• Re-introduced Hero Relics into the shard shop

• Disabled rebundling for items with unlocked styles, or which unpack with dynamic gems

• Owned world items can now be demoed through the item details popup

• Improved the display of chat wheels in the new Armory

• Commending a player no longer prints a chat message every time (to prevent post-game commend sprees from pushing all actual chat offscreen)

• Added a new, distinct sound for disliking a player

• Fixed grouping by item type in the All Items tab in the Armory

• Fixed announcer packs not loading properly when entering pregame

• Fixed places in the new Armory where fonts would sometimes display at an incorrect size

• Fixed an issue that would sometimes cause dead units to not stay dead (Undying, Spirit Bear, Wraith King)

• Fixed an issue that would cause the game to change monitors when running in fullscreen on multi-monitor displays

• Fixed Dark Seer's "More Than Mental Mass" taunt not playing sounds

• Fixed Phoenix's Crimson Dawn set only changing the appearance of the head instead of the full set

• Fixed server crashes involving abilities from Dark Seer, Razor, and Hoodwink

• Fixed a client crash when displaying certain tooltips (including Tranquil Boots)

• Fixed Hammer crashing on startup

• Fixed a crash when returning to the dashboard after playing a game

• Fixed some over-bright rendering in Vulkan when color-correction post-processing was enabled

• Fixed a crash in the Vulkan renderer on Linux

• Fixed a crash on Linux GPUs with low memory

• Fixed fullscreen flickering on multi-monitor Linux systems

• Fixed a crash on MacOS versions older than 10.15

• Fixed a hang on MacOS when purchasing certain items in the Armory

• Fixed a particle crash on older Windows machines without SSE4.1 support

• Fixed terrain sometimes displaying incorrectly (or being invisible) on low-spec Windows machines

• Fixed a particle rendering error with Phoenix's Solar Gyre

• Fixed display of owned Kill Streak Effect in the Shard Shop

• Fixed incorrect items sometimes appearing under the Tools section in the Shard Shop

• Fixed some cosmetic particle effects not showing properly when previewing items in the Loadout or in the Armory (Void Spirit weapon particles, for example)

• Fixed summons appearing next to heroes in postgame

• Fixed Dota Plus quest to commend players not correctly counting all commends

• Fixed a server crash when players were spectating under certain conditions

• Fixed a rare courier-related server crash in Turbo

• Fixed an issue where using Armlet could cause a unit to behave oddly on death (for example, give death bounty twice, or in Wraith King's case, be teleported to the fountain on Reincarnation)
