- Download and extract the .zip
- Open `C:\Windows\System32\DriverStore\FileRepository` and do a search for a file named `igfxDHLib.dll`
- Copy `igfxDHLib.dll` in the same folder as `ColorGoggles.exe`
- Copy `igfxDHLib.dll` in the same folder as `Color-Goggles.exe`

You have to do this because there are multiple versions of `igfxDHLib.dll` (they are all marked as `1.0.0.0` but are different), so I cannot embed the interop types in the .exe nor give you my DLL as it wouldn't work in most cases.


### Usage

- Add the process name of the game you want to add
- Add the process name (.exe) of the games you want to play
- Check "Remove limits" for saturation up to 320%
- Configure at will
- Have fun!

<sub>This is a very early version, it was initially not intended for public release and the code wouldn't mind a refactor. Saturation is changed using Intel's `igfxDHLib.dll` which is undocumented, there are no public APIs so I had to reverse engineer the *Intel HD Graphics Control Panel* and then proceed by trial and error.<sub>
