Hm... IrrEdit looks pretty good :)
(Particularly if I use gMan's Irrlicht module, which I think I'll give another glance).
The problem with using Blitz3D tools is that they only support Windows, but it is important that this game get full support on all platforms.
The reason I have such specific wishes for something simpler is that content here is generated in a very abnormal way, and my level layouts are not like the "conventional" game. There are no buildings and freely moving objects are often built out of height maps, or using base meshes and "substance" properties that cause unique deformations.
By the way, my thread title is misleading. It doesn't have to be 3D. Even a generic node editor with high extendability (visual outputs powered by external programs) would do :)
Thanks for the suggestions! They're all pretty good for the things they do. An excellent resource.
