SubmersedVR

NOTE: This mod is still work in progress. Please don't expect a polished or bug-free experience.

A mod aiming to make Subnautica an immersive VR game by modernizing its VR Support.

If you want to play the game in its original VR Mode with a traditional Xbox or PS4 Controller, I recommend using the Subnautica VR Enhancements Mod instead.

Installation/Setup

• Make sure you have BepInEx for Subnautica installed and setup.
• Also make sure you don't have VREnhancements or the old Motion Controls Mod installed, since they aren't compatible.
• Download the latest version of the mod from Github Releases. Make sure to download the zip filed called SubmersedVR_VERSION.zip and not the Source Code.
• Copy the whole contents of the zip file into your Subnautica folder e.g. C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Subnautica
  • You can find the location of your game in steam by right-clicking it, then -> Properties -> Local Files -> Browse.
• Start the game within SteamVR. The Oculus Runtime won't work and is not supported!
  • For OculusRift or Oculus Link Users: You can force the SteamVR runtime by adding -vrmode openvr to the advanced launch options of the Subnautica game. Please make sure you did that before launching the game.

Development Setup

• Install the .net SDK
• Change the SubnauticaDir Property in SubmersedVR/SubmersedVR.csproj to the Subnautica Installation
• Run dotnet restore to fetch all dependencies and setup the project
• Run dotnet build to build and install the mod

For VSCode

• Install C# Extension
• (Tip/Optional) Enable Decompilation support: Set RoslynExtensionsOptions:EnableDecompilationSupport to true in omnisharp.json.

For Visual Studio

• You should be able to simply open up the SubmersedVR/SubmersedVR.csproj.

Credits/Thanks

This mod began as modifications and fixes for the SN1MC Mod from ihatetn931 and later was mostly rewritten and cleaned up for this project. Lots of thanks to him opening up the source code for me to get into VR modding.

Furthermore, there are some fixes and improvements cherry-picked from the Subnautica VR Enhancements Mod by IWhoI.

Another thank goes to the great VR modding work from Raicuparta. I looked at their mods code quite often when I was stuck and probably will again in the future.
