====== File Format Objects Export ======

**ArmA 3 File Formats**

**Terrain builder** object export / import text file format:
<code>
"banana_1";200456.296875;1032.300049;250.000000;69.000000;96.000000;1.000000;5.686351;

1 - P3D/Template Library name
2 - X coordinate
3 - Y coordinate
4 - Yaw (ie rotation)
5 - Pitch
6 - Roll
7 - Scale
8 - Elevation
</code>

**Terrain Processor** uses directX transform matrix:
<code>
objects
-0.296639    0    1.052037    0    1.093059    0    -1.052037    0    -0.296639    215834.627782    0    50739.795978    0    t_prunuss2s_ep1
end objects
</code>

Incomplete stub:
<code>
1 - unknown
2 - unknown
3 - unknown
4 - unknown
5 - unknown
6 - unknown
7 - unknown
8 - unknown
9 - unknown
10 - this smells like "northing" coordinate
11 - unknown
12 - this smells like "easting" coordinate
13 - unknown
14 - object P3D name, no extension, no directory path
</code>

PMCTODO one day I should decipher that transform matrix, might come in handy to write a C++ tool to read/write terrain processor .LBT object export files.
