Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on SEL Shaders after installing it?
Open the Options menu in-game, go to Video Settings, then select Shaders. Find SEL Shaders in the list and click it to activate. You'll see the shader take effect immediately on your world.
Why does my game look washed out or too bright with this shader?
This is usually a brightness or gamma setting issue. Open the shader settings (look for a Settings button in the Shaders menu) and adjust the brightness and contrast sliders to match your preference. You can also tweak the color tone settings to get the fantasy look you want.
Can I use SEL Shaders with resource packs?
Yes, SEL Shaders works well with most resource packs and is designed to enhance vanilla textures. Load your resource pack normally through the Resource Packs menu—the shader will layer on top of it.
My FPS dropped a lot after enabling the shader. How do I fix this?
SEL Shaders is optimized for low-end systems, but you can improve performance further by disabling optional features like shadow quality, water reflections, or waving leaves in the shader settings. Lowering your render distance also helps significantly.
