How to use it

One file, straight from its link (works in a browser, an <img>, fetch; served with CORS):

https://huggingface.co/datasets/Sqls1/dota2-videos/resolve/main/panorama/videos/heroes/npc_dota_hero_pudge.webm

Python (huggingface_hub):

from huggingface_hub import hf_hub_download, snapshot_download

# one file
path = hf_hub_download("Sqls1/dota2-videos", "panorama/videos/heroes/npc_dota_hero_pudge.webm", repo_type="dataset")

# a whole folder
snapshot_download("Sqls1/dota2-videos", repo_type="dataset", allow_patterns="panorama/videos/heroes/*", local_dir="dota2-videos")

Command line (pip install -U huggingface_hub):

hf download Sqls1/dota2-videos --repo-type dataset --include "panorama/videos/heroes/*" --local-dir dota2-videos

Find anything: files.json at the root lists every file with its size, one download instead of walking the folders:

const { files } = await (await fetch("https://huggingface.co/datasets/Sqls1/dota2-videos/resolve/main/files.json")).json(); // [[path, size], ...]

How it stays up to date

Exported from the game files by videos.js. The tracker checks Steam every six hours; after a game update it exports only what changed and removes what the game removed. Everything at the game's own paths, so a file you know from the game is easy to find.

Made for Dotadex, a site that shows every Dota 2 hero and cosmetic in 3D as the game does, and open to everyone.

The whole family

• dota2-data: every script and text of the game as JSON (items, heroes, abilities, 28 languages)
• dota2-images: every picture of the interface: icons, portraits, loading screens
• dota2-videos: every video of the interface: animated hero portraits, trailers (this one)
• dota2-models: every 3D model: heroes, cosmetics, units, buildings, props

• dota2-particles: every particle effect system and its textures
• dota2-sounds: every sound: voice lines, abilities, music, announcers
