    (see below)
  • data view shows only mod folders and files (mapped from virtual _ROOT into game folder)

Technical details

Subnatica mods usually go either in the folders BepInEx or QMods. But since the game is writing a lot into its game folder (saves, caches, ...), the default MO virtualization, e.g. using the game root as "data folder", would redirect all new non-mod-files to overwrite.
As a workaround, custom mappings into the game folder are used. The default mappings (core part of MO) are "disabled" by using a non existing virtual _ROOT folder as data folder. (Which can result in the ignorable error in the logs failed to open directory '...\_ROOT'.)

This way only file writes under added mod folders are redirected, everything else is written normally into the game folder, as expected without MO.

Version Changelog:

  • MO v2.5:
    • Fix: doorstop_config.ini missing (BepInEx can now be installed in MO)
    • Mod checking & auto installation via BasicModDataChecker
    • Savegame preview
    • Custom root mapping (workaround: "replaces" default mapping)
  • MO v2.4.3: Added plugin
