INTRODUCING SPACE ENGINEERS - ModSDK

Modding is one of the most important aspects of Space Engineers. There are currently over 1,300 mods uploaded on our Steam Workshop page that players can use to enhance their gameplay experience. To help modders and to make their work easier, we decided to release Space Engineers – ModSDK, an application that includes tools specifically for modding. The application is totally free for everyone, even for those who don’t own Space Engineers game. In order to find it, open the Steam client, go to Library, Tools, type “Space Engineers ModSDK” in the searchbox and just follow the steps to install it (see here) or you can also find it here https://steamdb.info/app/326880/history/.

Space Engineers - ModSDK includes the following modding tools:
- MWMBuilder – this tool can be used for converting graphic assets to Space Engineers format
- VRageEditor2 (ModelViewer) – this tool can be used for previewing the models without having to be in the game
- original models, sounds and music from Space Engineers game
- tools for converting sounds and music

Note: textures are not included because they are already in the game

We hope that with Space Engineers – ModSDK we will encourage players who are not experienced with modding to experiment and create mods for the community.  Space Engineers – ModSDK will be improved during time and more features will be added in the future.  For more info about Modding and Modding Guides, please check the links below.
