✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 324 endorsements and 8,192 downloads.
- Lets you color-code item types so you can spot what matters at a glance.
- Adds a ping for nearby PDA items, making it easier to locate those collectibles.
⚠️ Cons
- Manual setup: you'll need to configure colors and toggles for each item type yourself.
- Only enhances the existing highlight system; doesn't add new highlightable categories beyond what's there.
- Last updated in January 2024 — possible compatibility issues with later game patches.
For Subnautica completionists who want to mark PDA items and quickly identify resource types by color. Also for players who find the default highlight too noisy and want to filter it down. Skip if you're happy with the vanilla highlight and don't need extra customization.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Install QModManager first, then drop the Advanced Highlighting folder into your QMods directory.
- After installing, tweak the config file to set per-item colors before your next dive.
- Use the ping option to locate PDA entries you've missed in wrecks and caves.
