Hello!

I am wanting to know, how do I make a dodecahedron marble? What program should I use? How do I convert to DTS?
If you could, please help.

Thanks for the support!

You can use Blender to make shapes like that, though it's going to take some time to learn. There's a DTS exporter for Blender hovering around somewhere. As for the dodecahedron part, I seem to recall being able to make a dodecahedron by making a level-1 icosphere (you'll understand this once you learn Blender) and then beveling it all the way until it's just a dodecahedron.

Could you use SketchUp for modeling/texturing?

In theory you could if you would use obj2dts but noone has ever tried that and it's hard to set any settings for dts itself. I think it would be generally easier if you would try learning blender since theres many people who could help you from there on.

Some guy that does DTS shapes and levels.

AWESOME time HINT : When making PQ level place your custom interiors and textures in platinum/data/interiors_pq/custom
makes life easier for you and everyone else :)

You need 2 model making if you read the below steps

AC3D:Easy to use
Milkshape 3D:texturing and export

1.Make your marble in AC3D
2.Export it to .3ds in AC3D
3.Import the .3ds file in milkshape 3D
4.Export it to .dts in milkshape 3D

It costs more but worth
