Easy Automated Installation

Windows (Vortex)

💡Tip

If you are migrating from a manual installation, it is recommended to fully delete your manual install of BepInEx before installing Vortex.

You'll want to take notes of which mods you had installed so you can reinstall them with Vortex.

https://www.nexusmods.com/about/vortex/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Vortex is a tool for installing and managing mods on Windows. It can install all kinds of mods for Subnautica and other games, including this pack.

1. Install https://www.nexusmods.com/about/vortex/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Vortex if you haven't already. Make sure it's fully up-to-date.

2. Install the https://www.nexusmods.com/site/mods/202" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Subnautica Support Vortex extension with Vortex.

To do so, just click the Vortex button at the top of its page, and allow your browser to open the link with Vortex. Inside of Vortex, the extension browser should open up with Subnautica Support selected. Just click Install near the top, then close the extension browser. Vortex will tell you in the 🔔 notification area at the top right that you need to restart Vortex after it has been installed, so when you get that notification, go ahead and restart it.

3. Click the Vortex button at the top of this page to install the BepInEx pack with Vortex!

With that done, you're all set and can run the game. You can now easily keep BepInEx up-to-date by selecting Subnautica from the Games tab in Vortex, then navigating to the Mods tab and clicking Check for Updates at the top. Vortex will notify you if updates are available, and there'll be a little yellow icon by its version. Click the icon to get the update.

And likewise, you can use Vortex to install, manage and update other mods when browsing Subnautica mods here on Nexus Mods by clicking the Vortex button on their pages. For more fine-grained control over which mod files you install, you can instead click the Mod Manager Download button from the Files tab of each mod.

For mods downloaded from other websites, you can install those with Vortex, too! Just drag the .zip, .rar or . 7z archive into the "Drop File(s)" section at the bottom fo the Mods tab after selecting Subnautica from the Games tab, and Vortex will install it for you assuming it is a recognised mod type. Note that Vortex won't be able to check for updates on these mods, which will be indicated by a little yellow ⚠️ warning sign in the Version column of its row on the Mods tab. It doesn't mean the mod itself won't work, just that Vortex doesn't know the version number of the mod and can't tell you if updates are available or not, so it will be up to you to check for updates on that mod and download and install them.
