Back in the days there was gmax (3dsmax aimed at gaming/modding) but it's got discontinued, probably possible to find it on abandonware site or somewhere else on the nets.

Its available on turbosquid, but you cant write plugins for it (unless you have paid for the sdk), maxscript is available in it, but if I understand correctly you cant write to files with it in gmax, so the only way to get any model out of it would be by using an ascii format and printing the data to the maxscript listener window

I like .x since its simple to switch between readable text and compressed binary format, it's easy to check if your mesh exporter code is working correctly by using the viewers microsoft have shipped with directx sdk, and the files can be expanded to contain whatever you wish.
