Converting Celestia models - help needed

I've been collecting various spaceship models made for the Celestia space simulator system, and I've come across a few glitches. (Models available at The Celestia Motherlode.)

Many of the models are in .3ds format, which I can convert easily into .obj for import into D|S. But some that I'd really like to use are in Celestia's own CMOD format. Are there any converters for this? It seems to be just one way — I can find converters to make a mesh into CMOD, but nothing to convert it back.

Most of the textures are the usual .jpg with the occasional .tif or .png for big planet textures, but I've come across some .dds files. I've never heard of this, and again, I can't find any relevant converters.

Help, anyone?

    I thought maybe blender would do it, but so far I can't find any program that will import the CMOD extension and then let you save it as another.
