I know there are lots of questions about how to get past the loading screen and what to do about connection issues. Apparently, there are a number of reasons why this could be. The best solution I have for y'all is to contact the discord for Nitrox Here is a link to their discord - discord.gg/subnautica-nitrox-official-525437013403631617 if it doesn't work for y'all let me know. Sorry I don't have a better answer for y'all.
i dont know why but me and my freind have been putting the port into the host and its not working? do we do anything with the port or leave it the same? we're confused lol
THANK YOU. I am new to subnautica on pc and wanted my friend to help me play through the game! you deserve more subscribers and you are a very helpful creator.
Hey man, love the super straightforward tutorial. Question, will switching to the legacy build corrupt my current save if I launch it? It's from the newest version.
I opened up the server and it did it to me. Turns out Nitrox probably opened a child process and didn't close it, making the program die. did it to me when I started the server once, then stopped it and went to start it again.
I have went through this whole process and have been successful, the only problem is that whenever I select "play" in the nitrox application, it loads, opens the game in my hotbar (not fullscreen on my monitor) and then closes after a few seconds. This is (so far) my only problem, if there is someone who has figured this out please help me.
3 questions, 1. after reverting versions to legacy, will it delete any non legacy data 2. Can i revert back to normal without loosing any legacy data 3. Do most mods also work with this cause i wanna do a modded playthrough with my friend
I've noticed a lot of people encounter an issue in which their game starts, but then never opens. Remember that no mods are compatible with Nitrox, so make sure all folders that are mod-related are moved out of the main subnautica folder once I did that, it worked fine for me
Awesome! Thank you for putting this together. Question though, by setting it back to legacy, does that mean you now have an older build of the app and not the latest updates/fixes/additions? Just didn’t know if I switch back to regular single player, if I now have an older version or not. Regardless… very cool and thanks again. My kids are wanting to play together so I have to make this work for them! LOL
Of course!!! From what I understand the legacy version is right before Subnautica’s living large update, so yes it will be behind a good number of bug fixes. -> unknownworlds.com/subnautica/subnautica-living-large-update-released/ Also, I’m doing a play through of it on my channel, and there are a few quirks that the multiplayer mod causes. Specifically some inconsistency in what the players see and a few of the submarines teleporting. Also I’ve read online a few of the cutscenes act very weird but I haven’t experienced that yet. However, according to Reddit it is possible to still finish the game 🤷🏻♂️.
Still working on an explanation ngl I cant seem to replicate it or find much online about it. Plus most of the solutions would be speculation because everyone's home network is different.
can anyone help?. ive done all of that was said but when i try clicking "Play Multiplayer" it shows that subnautica is starting up and then the game just shuts down. ive put the game in legacy mode, double checked to see that the directory for nitrox to find subnautica is correct and everything else. Idk what im doing wrong. Please help if you know anything about this. Thank you (:
I had that issue, and It turns out I had a few mod folders that I had to move out of the main subnautica folder. Then it opened and worked fine tldr: try moving out your other mod folders from the main one
if i start a server it says " Failed to automatically port forward 11000 UDP through UPnP. If using Hamachi or manually port-forwarding, please disregard this warning. To disable this feature you can go into the server settings." and yes i did run it as adminnistrator
I had the same Problem until i enabled UPnP in my Router settings. After that, I started the Server, and it automatically opened the Port for me, and it worked.
i tried everything with my friends but it didnt work, i tried joining him using the ip he gave me, it didnt work, when he tried joining mine i gave him, the public IP, it didnt work either.

I have the server going but when i push play multiplayer it says its launching subnautica, then gives me s short little loading screen but the game never appears up. Please help!
@ I was able to figure it out, but it was insanely buggy to play on with my friend, I would be right next to him and he wouldn’t be able to see me. I’m just gonna wait until subnautica 2 comes out lol
I had that issue, and It turns out I had a few mod folders that I had to move out of the main subnautica folder. Then it opened and worked fine tldr: try moving out your other mod folders from the main one
Whats the current state of this mod? I played a few years ago and it was insanely buggy, only the host could see the leviathans move, and they were just frozen for the others
So in my series that I’m doing. There are still quite a few bugs. Both my friend and I could see the leviathans moving but they were in different locations so I would see one under me and he wouldn’t see it at all but he found it a little further forward.
Is this compatible with other mods? And also, what if I wanna switch back to singleplayer every once in a while but still want to be able to play multiplayer?
everything workes but if i hit start server, there are not 3 numbers in this file . Everything looks similar to yours but the IP Adress is missing on mine ?
Can anyone confirm if this works still? Especially since all the latest news about Subnautica 2? I really want to try the game but i just feel it’ll be better with someone else ☺️
