No - there are no others that use PLIB.

There are two modellers that I could recommend:

   1) Blender - this is an essentially good modeller that has
      an extremely quirky user interface.  SOme people take to
      it and love it to death - other people find it to be so
      weird that they never get the hang of it.  (I'm in the
      second group - I find Blender completely unusable.)

   2) AC3D - this is commercial software (it costs $40) and
      is a reasonable basic modeller with an extremely easy to
      learn user interface.  There are some features missing that
      are hard to live without - but overall it's pretty good.

Of all the other modellers out there (and there are probably
a dozen or more of them), none fit the criteria I have for
a usable modeller for producing content for games and simulations.
