I think I remember a post about this before but I'm not sure and the search didn't help, so I'm gonna post it anyway. Does the offsets of the dcc depend on the size of the animation's frames? Couldn't you just scale the frame to match the size frame for frame of the animation you are trying to replace? Or is there a wildcard factor in the compression of the files?

Each direction sequence in a DCC has its own offset and frame size. If you convert your own animated GIF with CV5, you might start out with all frames the same size (like when I converted the D1 succubus), but CV5 plays with framesizes and offsets as part of its compression algorithm.

Every direction sequence in a dcc has its own frame size? (-blink-light goes on)maybe that will make those "other" directions (basically every other dirction except for the down-left, which already was), easier to find! I guess you really can learn something new each day. Thanks again Myhrginoc
