Help:Item pages

Creating an item page

Item pages are created using the {{itembox}} template. More information on how to fill out the itembox is available on the Itembox template page. The itembox template will automatically categorize the page.

Sample page layout:

{{stub}}
<!--Item Description, details and facts-->
Basic armor block for small and large ships. {{itembox
| item = Light Armor Block
| description = Basic light armor block for building ships.
| tool = no
| largeship = yes
| smallship = yes
| component = no
| rawmaterial = no
| scomponentstructure = 1
| scomponent1 = Steel Plate
| scomponent1amt = 1
| smass = 100
| lcomponentstructure = 2
| lcomponent1 = Steel Plate
| lcomponent1amt = 5
| lcomponent2 = Steel Plate
| lcomponent2amt = 20
}}

Uploading the Icon

The icon must be 128x128 and in .PNG format, click the broken image link and upload the icon. The best method is to use the raw icon files located in your space engineers installation directory. From your steam folder Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Content\Textures\GUI\Icons. These files are in .dds format. One option is to use GIMP and download the .dds extension for gimp [1]. Download the base file here for item icon backgrounds and paste the icon on top of it. You can get the .xcf file here: Media:Icon Template.xcf After you copy the icon into the template, export it as a .PNG file. Edit the description of the file and use the {{Game Icon}} template.
