- Actually, you are right. I confused pointer with offset and they are clearly different things.
(Position of the frame in the file) + (z_Offset) = (The exact position of the shadow data)
Thanks a lot, Olaf

According to what I could see in XCC TMP Editor, the cell is in a high height, but all pixels from it are in the same height... that makes me wonder, why z offset if z (depth) doesnt vary at all? Specially if the height changes are represented by the extra image from the frame than the main image part... but both main image and extra image have a z offset O.o...
