              or maybe they only disabled the setcamera command working in real games, just like they did with the range circle.

              sleave

                range circle still working fine here

                ヒジャーブ猫

                  so how to rune bind?

                  Androgynous

                    the range circle was removed from matchmaking ages ago, I have no idea what you're referring to if you're thinking of something else.

                    im talking about dota_range_display [number], which displays a ring around your hero, making offlaning and blinking much easier.

                    Androgynous

                      @dreemax, changing camera positions with keybinds will not be available in matchmaking if it is considered a cheat. it will still be usable in private lobbies if cheats are enabled a.k.a. setting sv_cheats to 1.

                        how is bind f1 checking top rune "cheat"

                        Androgynous

                          define cheat
                          "act dishonestly or unfairly in order to gain an advantage."

                          define unfair
                          "not based on or behaving according to the principles of equality and justice."

                          so basically, knowing that there's a console in the game which gives you access to extra settings is considered unequal to those that aren't aware of it (most games are not as open as source engine games), the inequality which is not due to skill on the player's part can therefore be considered cheating, although most people would associate the word "cheat" in gaming to involve third party programs i.e. hacks, but that isn't always the case.

                          advantages in games are generally acquired through skill (or should be). entering in a console command can hardly be considered skillful, probably why it and the blink / xp range circle were removed, the advantage it offered to those who knew about it was too big compared to those that didn't.

                          ICE SKULL

                            not my fault they cant google basic shit about video games on pc, spoonfeeding should always be looked down upon

                            Hopeless

                              with wave on this one. binding camera locations has always been a feature in SC2 and WC3. I see no reason why it shouldn't be in ARTS games.

                              Androgynous

                                im not for this change either, im just explaining the possible reasoning behind it.

                                  one of the best things about rts games and what not is that everyone basically plays from a level playing field; rune binds are a super small thing but it kind of messes with it.

                                  and i had rune binds set up so im not against them but valve probably feels that if only players have direct, valve-given access to them it gives them an advantage, same logic behind having a hotkey interface built-in vs wc3 requiring clients and what not

                                    there are tons of players who don't use the console command and rightfully so cuz the game should be played without it. When the console gives additional functions not offered in game it is conferring an unfair advantage other players do not have.

                                    And I don't use it.

                                      Bulshit, this Valve, literally that make random changes to game.

                                      What will be next? No minimap? No runes? Give me a break.

                                      Edit : or it could be just a bug?

                                      matrice

                                        You can still check rune easily

                                        ping both rune, press space 2 times

                                        tada, you just checked the 2 runes spot

                                          ^what if space = inventary bind hm? what then ?
                                          srsly if its not a bug its retarded, everybody can bind camera its not an exploit.
                                          its like binding his spell/inventary rly.

                                            fixed it

                                            remove the last coordinate

                                            //Top Rune
                                            bind "C" "dota_camera_setpos -2260.210938 1177.173096"
                                            //Bot Rune
                                            bind "V" "dota_camera_setpos 2974.426270 -2947.872559"

                                            the position of the map has changed also, so using the old coordinates would put you too low - i already changed my coordinates to reflect this adjustment.

                                                    emagguy

                                                      basically they have removed the z coordinate, delete the last set of no.s for top and bot ur camera would work again... took me long time to figure out too... lesson learnt.. read patch update CAREFULLY
