Easy to export modeling program

Im starting to program some games and I would like to export to my engine some models, what program would be the easiest to do so? I have some experience in 3DS MAX but i read in some place else or here(I dont remenber ) that is difficult to parse files with 3dsmax, ect ect. So can you tell me the pros and cons of the modeling programs, in a game programmer side of view... THANKS.

It is not too hard to parse 3DSMax files really.... they use a RIFF type chunk layout... Getting a simple loader will not be too hard. The other (slightly easier) option is to use the 3DSMax text based output format. This is marginally easier to import.. and you can even edit it in a text editor to make it simpler to load (Ultraedits Macro system comes in very handy for this sort of stuff)
