If you can't decimate the mesh to reduce the number of triangles, I successfully used this trick : split the mesh into n subparts, each with 1/n triangles, then make a shortcut that references these subparts.
Thanks Philo. Maybe the studs are just that one bit too much that breaks studio. I'll try splitting the file.
Lost more than a day trying to sort this out, but the upside is that I'm finally learning my way around LDPE!
I've also come across "Convert to Ldraw" which will import OBJ files with colors and export to DAT with colors. https://github.com/Nexusnui/Convert-To-LDraw/
