Why no Music?

[Gandalf]

A few days ago I noticed there's no longer music 75% of the time I play; just in the menu, before battle and when my hero dies.
Does somebody know if this is intentional (could be due to copyright), or if it will be fixed?
Thanks in advance

Who do you think owns the copyright?

Anyway, Ability Draft breaks the musiuc sometimes, because Valve doesn't know how to make new game modes by any method other than hacking bits of old game modes.

Well, I read somewhere that the musics im referring to were very very similar to some songs of WOW

I play without music anyway, and when I rarely do it's my own playlist.

[all good]

*sigh*

I do not play Dota personally but I might be able to help you.

Go to your Steam folder > Steam Apps > Common > Dota 2 and locate where the sound files are. This can take some time depending on how computer savvy you are.

Once you've found them delete the folder with the sound clips that you cannot hear in-game. Right click Dota 2 in your library and verify the files/cache and it'll re-download the files and add back the folder once again because it's missing.

This should fix your problem, feel free to post on my wall if you need any further assistance (you may add me to PM me after posting - I get too many phishing requests a day so I rarely accept anyone).

Best of luck!

Well, thank you for the hint, but I've already deleted all of Dota's files and redownloaded the game. So, I guess it has to do with something Valve has done to the game, I mean, it is not only my client that has no music :(
