Using ReShade to turn Legends of Equestria into a Gorgeous Game
Legends of Equestria is a great labour of the fandom which we have covered here many times before. It has certainly gotten way less attention in recent history, to the point of it being rather difficult to find players unless you join the official Discord Server or have some friends with you, but the game is still actively updated and alive to this day, even if only during events.
While the game has hours worth of content, quests, maps and unique areas which can take your days to traverse the entirety of — trust me, I have tried — it is not the most graphically stunning game. That's not any fault of the game, but it is not hard to improve it yourself using ReShade, a generic software which allows you to inject post-processing effects on your favorite games. The rest of the post will be displaying photos I have taken of the game using the shaders I've crafted. They turn the game into a stunning, serene experience.
The Town Square of Ponydale, informally known as "the benches" - the most common area to find players chillaxing around during non-events

My shaders are definitely NOT made for night, but that is no issue because Legends of Equestria has the
/time command in chat followed by a number ranging from 0 to 24 representing the hour of day to set the time to, or auto to go back to the normal day and night cycle.
You can also use the
/cc command followed by true or false to switch to the cinema camera on or off, which lets you fly around the map freely. Great for getting cinematic shots!
