Yes, it’s possible to save generated 3D models in Unity. There are several ways to do this, depending on your requirements and the file format you want to use.

One common file format for 3D models is the OBJ format, which can be imported into many other 3D applications. Here’s an example of how you can save a generated terrain as an OBJ file in Unity:

Generate the terrain using your procedural terrain generator.
Create an empty game object in the scene and add a MeshFilter and MeshRenderer component to it.
Set the mesh of the MeshFilter to the terrain mesh generated by your procedural terrain generator.
Use the AssetDatabase class to save the mesh as an OBJ file. You can do this using the following code:
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEditor;

public class SaveMeshAsObj : MonoBehaviour
{
    public string fileName = "Terrain.obj";

    public void SaveMesh()
    {
        Mesh mesh = GetComponent<MeshFilter>().mesh;
        string path = "Assets/" + fileName;
        AssetDatabase.CreateAsset(mesh, path);
        AssetDatabase.SaveAssets();
        Debug.Log("Mesh saved as " + path);
    }
}
