[MOD] Depth Of Field
« on: May 02, 2012, 12:41:17 am »
This mod tries to simulate depth of field by making the background textures and objects out of focus as well as slightly desaturating them.
This makes the objects in the foreground stand out more.
And a few other minor tweaks.
The effect is subtle, which was my intention: To preserve the original look and feel as much as possible.

Reference Screenshot:


Texture Pack Screenshot:


Must have AVWW 1.007 to install.
Unpack into RuntimeData\TexturePacks\ directory.
Select the texture pack in Settings -> Graphics and hit Save.

Subtle indeed. But not bad at all. I might toy around with this when I get home.

Subtle indeed, nice work.  I may have to tinker with that and see how it feels.
... and then we'll have cake.

No toying or tinkering here; I'm just going to load it up and let you know what I think!  :)

Having played with it for a bit, it's a definite improvement!

If anything, it could go just a little bit further.

I'd personally also quite like a mass desaturation of everything by a few degrees. (In fact, maybe I'll do that.)
