- 2 different folders:
- Without Indoor Optimization:
- This contains the files that do not change or turn off the DOF effect in interiors in any way,
- only recommended for PCs that don\'t get a slow down because of the effect indoors, you will have to test that yourself.
- With Indoor Optimization (RECOMMENDED)
- This completely turns off the DOF effect indoors, speeding up FPS.
- NOTE: Insane Esps are not intended to work perfectly, no complaining if you see a visual glitch!

- INSTRUCTIONS
- ------------
- Installation:
- 1. Open the .rar file you downloaded
- 2. Drag, or extract the file you would like to use to your data folder(you can also extract all of them, and then pick one later).
- 3. Repeat with other .rar file if you downloaded one.
- 4. Open Fallout 3 Launcher, or FOMM, go to Data Files, and tick the checkbox next to the 2 files you choose.
- 5. Run the game...

- INCOMPATIBILITY
- -------------
- Motion Blur-
- None.
- Depth Of Field-
- StapleNinja\'s DOF(Why would you combine them?)
- -------------
- FUTURE PLANS IN ORDER
- -------------
- Option to automatically turn off Motion Blur indoors (just in case)
- Optional file:
- Drug Effects-
- Visuals activate when taking certain drugs, i.e. More saturation for Jet, Inverted(Almost) colours for Psycho, Double Vision for any alcohol, etc.
- Include a menu, for only 1 ESP file
- ------------------
- CHANGELOG
- ------------------
- V1. 1b:
- Interior optimization ESPS (in the folder Depth of Field-With Indoor Optimization) should no longer be slower than the other ESPs outdoors (Depth of Field-WithOUT Indoor Optimization). I FULLY recommend these.
- V1. 1:
- Subtle Motion Blur FPS Drop Fixed (If other Motion Blur files gave you any slowdowns then these are fixed too).
- Depth Of Field With no Indoor optimization now available, for people where it runs smooth indoors anyways.
- Motion blur option Insane added.
- Motion blur reduced in general.
- New Optional file added:-V. A. T. S. DOF effect.
- There should be less FPS redcution!
- V1. 0:
- Distances Adjusted correctly.
- Added Insane option for DOF. Causes graphical anomalies!
- 0. 75 Bet
