Installation/Setup
- Install the BepInEx for Subnautica -> https://github.com/toebeann/BepInEx.Subnautica
- 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 SubmersedVR -> https://github.com/Okabintaro/SubmersedVR/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.
  {Your PATH}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.!
FAQ
Will this work with Below Zero?
Yes! @jbusfield ported the mod to Below Zero and is working on a lot of other nice features.
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.
