Here's another really good one, made in DBP and exports directly to DBO, has many cool options.

I find 3DWS good enough, but depending how you use it, if you apply clever tricks you can do some interesting things with it...

Otherwise it is quite limiting and discontinued by its developer for some time now...

Still worth the money though... for quick designs and complex designs too...

[Try out MapScape mentioned above... it is quite similar I believe]

Also Delgine DeleD has light-mapping and support for exporting .dbo files.
