PvME/Contributing/Preset Maker
Introduction
The PvME Preset Maker is a website used for creating presets in the standard PVME format. It is the preferred way to display presets in guides.
This guide only covers how to use the tool. For full preset formatting, please see Style Guide or reference any of the other guides in PvME where presets are used.
The Preset Maker can be found here: https://pvme.github.io/preset-maker/
If a desired item is not available, request for it in Editors chat (external Discord)
Preset Maker Layout
⬥ When you open the Preset Maker, you'll see the following layout.
• Make sure to create a New Preset by clicking the New Preset button if making a new preset.
Guide illustration ⬥ There are 2 buttons shown at the top right.
• IMPORT JSON - Allows you to import preset items and notes via an uploaded JSON file.
• EXPORT JSON - Allows you to export preset items and notes as a downloaded JSON file.
⬥ The GENERATE SHAREABLE LINK button produces a link to use in guides which saves all items and notes.
⬥ The SAVE NEW PRESET buttons saves the displayed preset and breakdown which can be loaded when the website is opened again on the same browser.
⬥ The RESET button erases all data in the displayed preset.
⬥ The COPY IMAGE TO CLIPBOARD and COPY BREAKDOWN TO CLIPBOARD buttons copies the preset and breakdown as images respectively.
• This facilitates fast uploading of images to Guide media upload and request (external Discord), or Bot test (external Discord).
Creating a Preset
⬥ Click on an slot in the preset interface. Use the search bar to find the desired item to assign it with.

⬥ You can also use the multi-select feature by holding [SHIFT] when selecting the slots, as shown in the video below:
Adding Preset to Guide
