    Indeed.

    The multiplayer mod is very hard work that requires hundreds upon hundreds of hours of work for zero pay. The people writing this mod can't ever get paid for the mod and have real jobs that take most of their time just so they can pay their bills. So, there isn't really any good reason for any of them to announce a release date. It will depend heavily upon about a million different things. Please wait patiently.



    Technically there is a slim chance that UWE will take them under their wing, so they could get paid either for the mod or for continued work on the mod...

    Has happened with some NS2 modders and theirmods/maps etc... Kinda depends if UWE's changes their stand on multiplaya o/

    Would be fascinating if that ended up happening. Plus the more crewmembers working on this game the better I think! Within reason that is. :)

    I find it awesome, as UWE itself began with a free mod.

    Yep, most "official maps" and from memory, UWE's Devteam B (NS2) is mostly consisting of community members. That Aussie got hired for his NS2HD promovids

    I noticed there are no longer instructions for setting this up on the Git-Hub page. I can follow the instructions earlier in the thread, but noticed the Git-Hub version has an additional Harmony project. Do I need to add the Harmony project to the solution as well?

    It's still there, I even updated it a couple days ago. Check the wiki ;)

    You don't need to do anything with harmony - a compiled version is already included. Soon we'll have the Harmony project included as a git submodule (and as project within the solution), but then it compiles automatically with the rest as well :smile:.

    Edit: Be sure to read the warning though. The mod is not fully stable yet, and you might run into some problems. Proceed at your own risk :blush:

    I am compiling fine and everything is all good, but dnSpy does not find any functions in subnautica exe to work with:

    Don't worry, I have no interest in 'playing' the mod, I am purely interested in the code side of the project. I will not commit to contributing to the project, as I want to get a feel for the programming style and what you are doing, assess whether I can be of any real use or not, and go from there.

    @Soul_Rider Check step 4: Inject NitroxPatcher into Assembly-CSharp. That is not Subnautica.exe.

    The disclaimer is mostly pointed at installing the mod; right now single player will break when having it installed, so bear that in mind. This is resolved once the Harmony branch I mentioned in my previous comment is merged in; it splits the patches in parts so that evertything not related to the multiplayer buttons or some setup code can be disabled after a Multiplayer session (and likewise, will only be enabled/injected in an MP session).
    I really hope it suits you though, as we are in extreme need for developers. There are only a few people actively working on the project, most of which cannot dedicate that much time due to study, work etc (myself included).

    you don't even know what to do dick so don,t post it man to MarijnS95

    Assembly-CSharp is a .dll file in the Subnautica_Data\Managed folder, in case anyone missed that.

    Hehe yeah the wiki is already a bit more extensive than I wanted it to be - it's our only way to prevent people from building and installing the mod and coming to us with loads of "support questions" shortly after. We expect the people for whom it is intended (developers, those who can program and help us out develop this quicker) to understand. Simple file searches being among the basics :wink:

    We as well; we keep getting questions a la "when is this out???" "halp me install plez?!?!". Worst is some guys in our discord server; they keep asking every other day "is it out yet??" when we've explicitly told them it takes time; and that we'll anounce the release in proper fashion, obviously.
    I guess that's the complicated part we developers have to deal with... If we could just work on code that'd be too easy :grin:

    Update: That branch I mentioned is merged in, so if you pull and rebuild you should be able to play SP with the mod installed now \0/

    It amazes me the sheer talent that this requires. I wished i knew more about programing so i could help. Here's hoping you get some people to help lessen the workload.

    @WakaKrazyBunBun the mod is not ready for public release; the makers have made it public so that anyone who knows how to mod can contribute. Getting it to work on your own is the audition. :)

    If you are interested in the multiplayer mod, the best thing you can do is stream about the game as it is, blog about it, create websites talking about it, etc. Do everything you can to encourage as many people to buy and play it. This serves two purposes:

    1. The more folks playing the game means more programmers who might contribute unpaid volunteer work on the multiplayer mod.
    2. With sufficient sales, the developers who wrote the game and who actually can work full time on a successor may decide it makes good sense to start work on a new game with multiplayer.

    I think the folks working on mods and the multiplayer mod are absolutely incredible. Many thanks to them!!

    Again, show your support for them by getting the word out about the game and drive sales up. In my opinion, that is the best way to help with the multiplayer mod.
