First of all, I'd check the error log to see what it says. It's actually quite tricky to create a fully working DTS for the first time. The learning curve is very steep.

If you have the source code, you can recompile the engine and run it in debug mode so that when it fails, it can show you at what point and what it is doing when it falls over.

As a guess, I'd say that you replaced the player.dts file, but the engine seems to expect rather a lot of the player.dts file by default.

As a first step, I'd recommend trying to place your shape as a static object through the world editor, rather than placing it in the player folder.

Hope I helped in some small way. :o)
