    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JLaNZtyONEM I wanted to try this mod, and I was wondering if you could get vac banned etc, for those who don't know only you can see the mod, and this isn't off the steam store. Thanks.

      NO you wont get banned.Mods are legalized by valve unless it gives you unfair advantage.Like there used to be a mod where tou could see enemy torrent and sunstrike that kind of thing.There is a software for modding dota i can share it with you.Its totally free.But be careful when you use mods because some of them f**k the game like you load into the match and the screen is black.https://dota2mods.com use this software its simle and easy to use.

          Ah ok thanks, I just found this Exceptions
          The following will not result in a VAC ban:
          Using commands in the console.
          Using commands in the Launch Options.
          Using cheats in private lobbies.
          Using multiple accounts.
          Using a legitimate third party chat program like Xfire.
          Cosmetic modding (models, textures, icons, sounds, text, etc). However, some mods, particularly those that involve a 3rd party program or changes to the game engine, may be considered too intrusive by the VAC system. Cheats can also be maliciously embedded within cosmetic mods, causing unsuspecting users to get banned. Modding users should exercise careful judgment. Im good

            there is some issues with this dota2mods such as
            it is too hard to target Phantom assassin if u use her arcana mod ( when u playing against pa)
            and sf attacks just goes slow with arcana

            Dark Hunter

              If you modify game files/hook into them VAC might get triggered (litarly). But i'm not sure about visual mods etc. I think those are fine.

                yup they are fine .just check once with bot matches.Some times game crashes during use of skills due to mods
                And u get free LP cuz cant rc properly unless u remove mods
