🎯 Tips & Tricks
Since it's a simple file drop, make sure to place it in the correct game directory—check the mod's file structure if you're unsure.
If you're using a mod manager, you can still install manually; just extract and copy the files to your game folder.
Test in a scene with strong DoF (like dialogue or cutscenes) to confirm the effect is gone.

⚠️ Common Mistakes
- Installing multiple mods that modify the same files without checking compatibility
👍 Pros
- Community favorite with nearly 5,000 endorsements and over 168k downloads—clearly a go-to fix.
- Does exactly what it says: kills the blur while keeping the setting on, so no engine bug triggers.
- Lightweight and to the point—no bloat, just the fix you need.
👎 Cons
- Last updated in 2015—might not work with current game versions, so test before relying on it.
- No install instructions or compatibility notes provided by the author.
- Only addresses DoF; if you're looking for broader visual tweaks, this won't help.
