Voxel Editors
All voxel editors have tools to modify Trove models in QB file format. Some editors make the process much easier and faster, but any of them are enough to make a mod. You can find lots of specific how-to videos on YouTube for each of the editing apps.
Qubicle:

Game Folder location
It is possible that your game files are located in different folders than mentioned in the video, but there is an easy way to find them that will work for everyone.
If you are using Steam to play Trove, open your Steam Library, right click Trove on the list and chose Properties. That will open a window with all the information for the game. Click on the Local Files tab on top and then on Browse Local Files.. button. that will open your Trove/Live folder.
If you are using only Glyph without Steam to play Trove, open the Glyph launcher, find Trove on the list displayed on Left side of main window. Right-click it and chose Settings. That will open up Settings window, in there click on Trove (if its not selected) and that will show following window with the Installation Path - this is the folder you are looking for. Click on Browse button to open it.
Override Folders
Override folders shown in the video will not work for overriding files in 2019 and 2020 folders. We suggest you start your Modding with modifying game files that were put in game before that. Luckily that is more than 90% of all the models, Interface and Visual Effects.
