• How to have the Arma 3 Altis map in a text format ?

      Good evening,

      I am creating a game between Minecraft and Arma 3 (Altis-Life) with C++, SDL and OpenGL.

      I would like to have the Arma 3 Altis map (with all components such as structures...) in my game. Likewise I would like to have a text format of the map, here is an example:

      House1

      {

      pos: 0; 0; 0

      orientation: 0; 0

      }

      House2

      {

      pos: 0; 5; 0

      orientation: 0; 0

      }

      ...

      I know that I won't find exactly that but I would like to find the map as a human comprehensive format. Then I will program an algorithm to convert the file to my game).

      To put briefly, I would like to convert the .wrp Altis map in the good .pbo to a text format.

      I have been searching for a while and I am loosing hope.

      Thank You,

      Sincerely Benjamin Loison
