# IGCSDOF Support
---

The mod also supports [IGCSConnector](https://github.com/FransBouma/IgcsConnector/releases), and therefore [IGCSDOF](https://opm.fransbouma.com/igcsdof.htm), the best modded DOF available. This is an accumulated DOF solution similar to Forza Horizon's or other offline rendering software. This accumulated solution brings some advantages compared to real-time solutions, such as:

- Accurate near-plane bleed.
- Particle & alpha effects in DOF.
- Depth-accurate reflections.
- Layered defocusing of transparent and translucent materials.

[Before and after](https://framedsc.com/ReshadeGuides/Addons/MSADOF.htm#advantages) showing the advantages of accumulated DOFs over real-time DOFs.

For more information about the DOF itself head over to [Otis docs](https://opm.fransbouma.com/igcsdof.htm).

## Installation

To be able to use this DOF you would need to do the following:

- Install the [add-on version of Reshade](https://reshade.me/) on the game.
- Download [UnityIGCSConnector.dll](https://github.com/originalnicodr/CinematicUnityExplorer/releases/latest/download/UnityIGCSConnector.dll) and put it in the same folder as the games .exe.
- Install IGSCConnector by following the instructions [here](https://opm.fransbouma.com/igcsdof.htm#installation).

@alert important
Be sure to select `Classic (slower)` mode instead of `Fast`, as the latter one seems to render the image out of focus in most games. However `Fast` might still work in some, so it's still worth giving it a try.
