(Updated the page with the referenced .obj exporter script. Added a more confident description of the script's behavior. See the discussion page for more details.)
(Replaced the sample script with a more complete version. This expands on the original script by writing the GameObject to disk 'as the user sees it.')

Description

Exports a GameObject and its child hierarchy's meshes to a Wavefront .OBJ file. This will export the meshes as you see it.


Usage

You must place the script in a folder named Editor in your project's Assets folder for it to work properly.

Select an object in the scene hierarchy or a prefab in your project and then choose File -> Export -> Wavefront OBJ. Follow the save-file dialog to name and locate the intended exported .OBJ file.

A second option, File -> Export -> Wavefront OBJ (No Submeshes), will export the entire GameObject hierarchy as a single mesh. Use this option if you want to combine a prefab or object into a single mesh.

NOTE: This will only process a single GameObject selection at a time. If multiple GameObjects are selected, only the "first" one will be processed.

NOTE: The (No Submeshes) option does not trim faces, generate multi-materials, or even adjust UV coordinates. If you want to optimize or correct the mesh, you are encouraged to refer to a more specialized piece of software to handle that.

NOTE: the Wavefront .OBJ format does not have a concept of submesh offset, scale, or rotation, so every submesh will be rotated, scaled, offset, and then written. All of your meshes will be loaded into Unity with a (0,0,0) rotation, position, and scale.
