Mr Purples Cyclops Upgrade Mods not showing in-game

[stable shell]

A couple days ago I got back into subnautica but wanted to try some mods. Mr Purples cyclops mods (like AutoZappers and solar module) looked cool so I wanted to give them a try. After installing the mods with their dependancies I loaded up the game but I can't seem to find the items in the PDA or Habitat Builder (in creative mode).

I tried both Living Large (with nautilus) and Legacy (via Primesonic on Github as they aren't on nexus anymore with Qmod) but after installing the mods with their necessary dependencies the mods still don't show up in game (neither in PDA nor under mods in settings).

I also downloaded the Cyclops docking mod to see if the problem was with mr Purples mods or with mods in general but that mod works fine. Any idea what im missing or what I did wrong?

Is there anything I'm missing, like a dependency that I overlooked (I have MoreCyclopsUpgrades installed, aswell as Qmod manager and SML Helper for legacy)?

I took a look at the qmodmanager log file and the mods are listed under "game folder structure", but aren't metioned anywhere else in the file.

(I don't know a lot about modding or coding in general so is it possible that i missed something)

If you are on Legacy then you will need to use versions of the mods made for that version of the game. MrPurple's Legacy mods are available from https://github.com/MrPurple6411/My-Subnautica-Mods/releases/tag/3.26.2022 However, Both the Legacy and march_2023 versions of the game soon won't be available anymore because of the whole unity security issue. They will probably become unavailable sometime this week.

When that happens you will have no other option but to use the 2025 patch versions of mods. MrPurple's you can find here https://discord.com/channels/324207629784186882/1419031383434592427

Cyclops Docking Mod hasn't been updated by its author for this version of Subnautica, though.

Oh thanks for letting me know. Ill have another crack at installing the mods on the march 2023 build.

For that version of the game you need to use the latest versions of mods uploaded prior to the 13th August 2025 or ones that specifically state they are for that version of the game.

Do note that you won't be able to play on that version of the game for much longer

oh sorry i misread. ill have a crack at the regular version of subnautica on steam

So I changed my subnautica to the newest version on steam and freshly installed BepInEx, then Nautilus and then MoreCyclopsUpgrades (Purple Edition). I carefully followed the installation steps, yet the mod still isnt showing up in game, even after crafting the cyclops depth module mk 1 (as is required according to the mods page on nexus). Any idea what im doing wrong?

no i downloaded my mods from nexus, ill try the mods in this zip. thnx

omg it showed up, thank you so much

just cuz im curious, but any idea why the ones from the website dont work?

[past burrow]

The ones on Nexusmods are outdated. They were made for the march_2023 version of the game. MrPurple updated his mods and uploaded them to where I linked for testing purposes

He won't release them to Nexusmods until confident that they work correctly
