How can I remove the message when the hero dies?, like the one with

"(blahblah) the (blahblah) has been slain".
I tried the Game Interface values by replacing

"%s the %s (level %d) has fallen.,%s the %s (level %d) has been slain.,%s the %s (level %d) has been killed.,%s the %s (level %d) has fallen."

and

%s has fallen in battle.

I replaced it with space but when I tried it and the hero dies a
message saying error message shows up. Then I tried underscore but
nothing happens on that. Is there something I should type to remove
the message or is this not possible?

Thanks and +rep to those who help. :D


And a follow up question, I can't seem to find a way to remove an item's shadow. Can anyone tell me hot to remove it? xD

  • Event: Time - Every 0.02 seconds of game time
  • Conditions:
  • Actions: Cinematic - Clear the screen of text messages

Thanks but my map is already lagged due to lots of doodads so I can't do that periodic's anymore.

my second question is that the items have shadows ingame, I want to remove them to reduce lag. xD
