Custom PDA Photos

This tutorial helps you on adding custom images to your PDA which can be used on picture frames in your base or in a time capsule.

1. Take a screenshot in-game

Take a screenshot in Subnautica by pressing F11 (default key). We'll be replacing that screenshot with your custom image.

2. Open Subnautica's game folder

Go to your Steam library, right-click Subnautica, go to "Manage" and "Browse local files".

3. Locate your world's screenshots folder

Find your save folder by heading to SNAppData and from there to SavedGames.

Open the world where you want your image to show up. The folders are generated in the same order as your worlds with the oldest being "slot0000" and newer ones "slot0001", "slot0002", "slot0003" accordingly.

Head over to your world's screenshots folder.

4. Replace the screenshot you took at step 1

Find the newest screenshot and copy it's name completely, including the file format (.jpg). Delete the screenshot, drag your custom image into the folder, and rename it with the same name you just copied.

Note that the screenshots must be in YYYY-MM-DD_(00001-99999).jpg format.

5. View your custom image in-game

Restart Subnautica and load the correct world to see your custom image in your PDA's gallery.

You can always send another capsule and encourage people to upvote it on the Unknown Worlds time capsule voting forum!

as a person who just got done with the game for the first time (i have had this game for like 4 years but never completed it) i find this to be a missed oppurtunity for my time capsule
