If this offset is wrong (I check with S3D whether the value has been changed correctly), I try different hex offsets 'left' and 'right' of my first guess. Usually, I find it +/-1 offset.


No rocket-science or deep understanding required, just compare patterns and make smart guesses


Best, LGN1
Got it, thanks ! I figured I was as usual missing something staring me in the face so thats a relief.
