No 3d World Studio is not the best for interiors for Torque, just my 2 cents.

For now, yeah, definitely the best to use. I use it and it's great. Using it for a professional product that I am working on as a side contract. I am also in the Torque Constructor beta and when it releases it will be the one to use without question. Only thing I wish they would add to Constructor is terrain heightmap creation. It's such a wonderful editor to use and you can build your entire game in it, except for the terrain. In that respect, 3D WorldStudio wins some big bonus points over Constructor. But then Constructor strikes back with way better lighting tools and hell of a lot better material tools.

QuArK has a steeper learning curve, but offers some very nice advanced tools.

I have to disagree with the consensus, here. QuArK has a steeper learning curve, but offers some very nice advanced tools.

You said that you can build your entire game with Constructor (except terrain)..
.. I thought you can't make dts-models with it.

Constructor is not designed to create DTS models, so you will not be making and animating your player models in it or creating detailed DTS meshes to decorate your levels. It is made for creating the levels themselves. It has LWO support which Dave put in on his "weekend away" from development (he can never get away!).
If you are interested, you should look at his Deconstructing Constructor blogs.

3D World Studios is an interior modeling program. You use it to make buildings in the game. You need another program like milkshape or 3dsmax to make models.
3D world studio is currently the best (Ease of use, tools) interior modeling tool, however garagegames is making one of their own called Constructor.
