    Currently there is no auto adjustment of the focal distance for the Depth of Field. However, there is a method for setting the focal distance (DoFPostEffect.setFocalDistance()) that you can call from the console. You could easily set it up in script to do a ray cast and set the focal distance to the distance from the player to the hit point of the ray in order to create a quick auto adjustment system.

    Is T3D DoF able to do what Ubiq Visuals DoF for TGEA can do?

    It seems to be much sharper difference

    It's almost a day and night difference. The character is very sharp, where the background is blurry. I find in T3D, the character is still kinda blurry. What values should i set it to?

    I don't know that any values you set are going to really work correctly at this point, there still seem to be some shader bugs to be worked out.

    Yes I am having this problem too. I believe there is still a bug being worked on relating to this. In first person my gun appears slightly blurry, in 3rd person everything is including the character.
