WARNING

Back up all appropriate files before attempting this guide. Do not overwrite existing files, Only modify copies. This has worked for me but I provide no guarantees that this guide works. By using this guide you relieve me of any responsibility for possible damages caused. This includes corrupted files.

Goal

The goal of this guide is to modify and export default ships and stations. these include respawn, abondoned cargo and possibly rare or hidden ships.

1.Open the Steam client
2.On the top left toolbar click on LIBRARY and then GAMES.
3.In the list find Space Engineers and right click on it.
4.A drop down menu will appear, click Properties.
5.A new window will open titled Space Engineers - Properties, Click on the LOCAL FILES tab.
6.You will see a button labeled BROWSE LOCAL FILES.... Click on it and it will open your file browser to the location of your space engineers installation

D:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\SpaceEngineers\Content\Data\Prefabs

Step two

Now lets find the blueprints save location.


  • Start menu
  • %appdata%
