🎯 Tips & Tricks
If you're using IGCS, this mod is a must-have for crisp DoF captures—just drop the files in and shoot.
Test in a forested area to see the difference immediately; you'll notice no more motion blur on leaves.
Pair with other screenshot mods for best results, but be aware that wind removal is permanent until you uninstall.
