💬 From the author:
I am developing this mod purely for my own enjoyment. Even if the project doesn't become massively popular, I will keep working on it because I love the process of creation. So, this project won't be abandoned anytime soon! If you want to follow the development, join my Discord server.

📦 Requirements:

  3. Java 17

  4. Pehkui (version 3.8.3+)

💡 Optional Mods (Highly Recommended)

  1. Better Combat — for a more dynamic combat experience. Warning: some versions include PlayerAnimator, which may cause conflicts.
  2. Just Enough Items (JEI) — to easily view item crafting recipes.
  3. Mod Menu — how to live without it? A convenient menu for mod configuration.
  4. Iris Shaders and Sodium — for beautiful visuals and performance. Be careful with shaders, as they may cause visual bugs with abilities.

⚠️ Important notes:

  2. There may be rendering bugs with abilities when using certain shaders.

💡 Необязательные моды, но отлично сочетающиеся с Dota: Awakening(по мнению автора)

  1. Better Combat - делает бои более динамичными. Осторожно: в некоторых версиях PlayerAnimator уже встроен, это может вызвать конфликт.
  2. Just Enough Items (JEI) - удобно смотреть рецепты крафта предметов.
  3. Mod Menu - а как без него жить?
  4. Iris Shaders и Sodium - для красивой картинки и оптимизации. С шейдерами могут быть визуальные баги способностей.

⚠️ Важная информация:

  2. Возможны баги рендера способностей при использовании некоторых шейдеров.

  3. Многие механики переработаны под баланс Minecraft или изменены.

  4. В мод встроена библиотека Cardinal Components API (версия 5.2.1). Будьте осторожны: если у вас уже установлен этот мод отдельно, возможны конфликты. Пожалуйста, удалите отдельную версию из папки mods.
