Regression

No

Some models have missing submeshes when imported as .obj

Asset - Importers

-

Reproduction steps:
1. Open attached project ("SubMeshBug")
2. In the Project window, select "Ray Dagger" asset
-- In Inspector window, notice that there is only one Remapped Material
3. In the Project window, select "Ray DaggerBlend" asset
-- In Inspector window, notice that there are two Remapped Materials

Expected: Imported .obj has the two submeshes
Actual: Imported .obj has only one submesh

Reproduced with: 2017.4.18f1, 2018.3.3f1, 2019.1.0a14, 2019.2.0a1

Note:
- Another model (Avenger) in the project with same topology structure and UV mapping does not exhibit the issue

  1. Resolution Note:

    The issue is in the FBX SDK.
    It looks like the FBX SDK cannot resolve the .mtl path if it contains a space, replacing 'mtllib Ray Dagger.mtl' by 'mtllib Ray_Dagger.mtl' and updating the .mtl file name accordingly fixes the issue.

    Encountered this issue on Unity 2019.3.1f1
    However the problem was not spaces in path, but instead Chinese characters.

    Unity is a website using to search and track issues. It has a detail about postponed that means the issue was either a feature request or something. They might have technical issues in their internal maps. I prefer to check <a href="https://pillarwm.com/10-questions-to-ask-your-wealth-manager-and-the-answers-you-want/">should i hire a wealth manager</a> to learn more new ways of net worth. You can attach your working model here for more join it.

    Happens with .obj too, i removed the spaces from all files names (texture, gamesobjects, .obj and materials) and now my submeshes and materials don't vanish.
