The Subnautica Modding Discord has the most up-to-date information and is the best place to ask for help.
Config based patch management for Subnautica and Subnautica: Below Zero
QMods is available for several mod-hosting websites. Typically they will install QMods for you as a dependency of whichever mod you download.
Subnautica
Below Zero
Extract the relevant zip file into the Subnautica
directory. There are several zip files, one for each version of the game.
- Subnautica - SN.STABLE
- Below Zero - BZ.STABLE
You will end up with a folder like this:
Subnautica
- QMods/
- BepinEx/
- doorstop_config.ini
- winhttp.dll
- Subnautica.exe
Each mod should have one folder in the QMods
directory.
Each mod needs to specify that it's compatible with Nitrox in their "mod.json" file.
{
"Id": "MyMod",
"NitroxCompat": true
}
Mroshaw created an excellent guide to get started.
