The interesting ones to me so far are :

http://www.artofillusion.org - ART OF ILLUSION - Open source program used for modelling, animation and raytracing that has many features contained within high-level commercial software. Well worth checking out.

http://www.leadwerks.com/ - 3D WORLD STUDIO - $59.95 For Standard Edition - The absolute best world creating program available.
