In rayshader: Create Maps and Visualize Data in 2D and 3D

#'@title Save OBJ
#'
#'@description Writes the textured 3D rayshader visualization to an OBJ file.
#'
#'@param filename String with the filename. If `.obj` is not at the end of the string, it will be appended automatically.
#'@param save_texture Default `TRUE`. If the texture should be saved along with the geometry.
#'@param water_index_refraction Default `1`. The index of refraction for the rendered water.
#'@param manifold_geometry Default `FALSE`. If `TRUE`, this will take the additional step of making the mesh manifold.
#'@param all_face_fields Default `FALSE`. If `TRUE`, all OBJ face fields (v/vn/vt) will always be written.
#'@param save_shadow Default `FALSE`. If `TRUE`, this saves a plane with the shadow texture below the model.
