Whereas most video games help tons of various methods to visually enhance how your recreation seems to be of their settings, not all of them do. Some are lacking some key options, and that is the place ReShade is available in. ReShade is a post-processing injector that may help you add visible results to your recreation, like HDR, SMAA Anti Aliasing, and even weirder results like Cartoon. On the Steam Deck, that is normally extra sophisticated, however that is the place the LetMeReShade plugin for Decky Loader is available in!
Developed by itsOwen, this plugin lets you use ReShade in Recreation Mode and set up it on no matter recreation you wish to, with out problem. Nevertheless, a brand new replace was launched yesterday that ought to make it even higher to make use of for all your video games!
In the event you don’t have Decky Loader put in in your Steam Deck, you’ll be able to comply with our information on get it put in simply.
With the 0.9 launch, we formally begin getting help for non-Steam video games with the plugin. Earlier than, we may solely use it for video games by way of Steam, however this replace brings beta implementation for video games outdoors of Steam. This implies any recreation from the Heroic Launcher, Lutris, third-party launchers, and any recreation added that isn’t part of Steam. The replace additionally fixes a DRM difficulty, makes it so that you don’t have to alter Proton variations manually, and a few API issues have been resolved.
Per the GitHub web page, you do want to put in the plugin manually, which implies it is probably not on the Decky Loader retailer but. This implies you’ll must obtain the 0.9 launch, then transfer the downloaded recordsdata to the homebrew/plugins folder. After that, it ought to seem in your Decky Loader plugin checklist in recreation mode.
I like how this plugin not solely gives help for ReShade, but additionally installs VkBasalt, which permits help for video games that use Vulkan. It mechanically checks for updates to each packages, configures the HOME key mechanically to simply entry the menu, and has Steam Deck optimized presets. The plugin doesn’t work with the Body Era plugin resulting from utilizing the identical DLL that it modifies, however I might personally select ReShade over Body Era.
You may obtain LetMeReShade from their GitHub.
