Adding this because people lack reading comprehension
Custom Batteries no longer comes bundled with any sample packs
Why? The Custom Batteries mod was created because players wouldn't stop asking me for changes to the old battery mods. Everyone wanted their own "balance" changes. I tried to make the old MidGameBatteries work for everyone, but it wasn't enough and some people just weren't satisfied even with the level of customization it ended up offering. So instead of trying to give everyone what they wanted, the Custom Batteries mod was created so that each player could create the batteries they wanted. But that still wasn't enough and people kept doing the same thing, kept asking for changes to the included sample packs, even though the packs were nothing but plain text files that can be easily edited by anyone. Because of those players, the sample packs were removed from the mod.
This mod is intended for use in the legacy version of the game only and will not be receiving any further fixes/updates. If you are on the latest version of the game, you can grab the updated BepInEx version of the mod here: CustomBatteries https://www.nexusmods.com/subnautica/mods/1453
PrimeSonic has handed off most of their mods to other modders. I don't think we'll see an update here, but we might see an updated version from MrPurple6411.
It's been 18 months, a fully YEAR and a HALF, since Living Large came out (2.0), and TONS and TONS of mods are not getting dated. The likelihood of this mod getting updated is slim to none. It's dead!
I see someone has already posted an update request but if you're still supporting this mod and I'm really hoping you are but could you please update this to bepinex? your mod looks really cool and would really like to try it out but sn1 doesn't have access to qmods.
Managed to make a craftable battery with Custombatteries and CustomCraft2 but neither are selectable in tool battery exchange. Not sure if i did something wrong or if its bugged?
I also have this issue. I remember using Custom Batteries with great success last year. I even disabled the decorations mod. Any other ideas PrimeSonic?
probably a battery has the same id as another battery. check the "Packs" folder in the custom batteries mod and check if any batteries have the same id
If I make a pack using this mod, can I upload it immediately? I'm asking because in the permissions tab it says to use the assets in the mod file you need permission.

There is plenty of instruction on both the description page and on the wiki page to help you create your own custom batteries exactly how you
want them.
https://github.com/PrimeSonic/PrimeSonicSubnauticaMods/wiki/Text-Pack-Patching
If you are unable to follow these instructions, then there are plenty of mods available that provide new batteries using Custom Batteries.
You can install any of those to get started.
Here's a few you can look at:
Plasma Charged Batteries
Variety Battery Pack
infinityBatteries
Bio Batteries

Any posts asking me to provide battery packs will be ignored.
You have all the tools to make them yourself now.

If you have that mod, disable the "placeable batteries" option.
