📋 About This Mod

Scriptrunner which adds a smooth, physically simulated depth-of-field effect when aiming down the sights.

This is only enabled in first-person. It is implemented completely differently to something like DYNAVISION 3 which should result in better performance, smooth transitions, and an actually physically simulated version of depth-of-field (but do note that the depth of field shader is not at all physical).

Optionally, there is also depth-of-field when reloading.

REQUIREMENTS

Depth of Field Fix

  • Uses an unused IMOD from the vanilla game (HiddenValleyISM). If uninstalling the mod after an auto-save it may stay enabled (but does nothing. This is the only IMOD in the base game which has no effect).

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make sure you have the required scriptrunner installed and up to date, as this mod depends on it.

  • If you experience performance drops, check if the mod has an MCM or config file to adjust the effect strength.
