    If it's a prop just move it to the centre, then export as OBJ, reimport (making sure you use the same preset in the options dialogue both ways, reapply the materials, and save as a Scene Subset for future use.

    Thanks Richard.

    I didnt have the settings the same going out and back in again.

    works fine now.

    Another way is to move the prop to the origin you want, then save it as a scene subset in your content library. While it won't re-set the objects origin to world origin, it will load it at the world origin so you can move it from there.

    Regards,

    Richard.

    Just download this script and you will get the wanted result. Load your object and apply the script.

    I would instead take Richard's suggestion because it will be loaded properly each time with the coordinance set to 0,0,0. Running a script every time you load the asset seems counterproductive.

    Maybe but the prop can be moved to 0,0,0 with the script before exporting it as suggested by R. Haseltine.
