📋 About This Mod

Disables the 0. 7 sharpening effect that is automatically turned on when into dialog with any character. Uses a simple Lua script to automatically apply the r_sharpening = 0 command when entering dialog. Covers both dialog you initiate and dialog you are pulled into.

Requires no outside dlls or programs to operate as it uses internal scripts.

If you have a r_sharpening value set in your user.cfg file the mod will incorporate that and use it instead of 0. Tested with the same scenes above with a value of 0. 12345 which transferred between all scenes properly. 

Tested using player entered dialog (with shop keepers, talking to people on the street, etc.), when you are pulled into dialog (like on a quest), and on cutscenes (thanks to ezudo91 for providing a save which makes testing it easy).
If you have an issue with something please leave a comment or bug report. It would be a great help if you had a save near the issue to test as well.

Installation:

Install with Vortex (Recommended).

Unzip and place "sharpeningbegone" folder into  "Mods" directory.
