ok, but patch will be ready probalby not ready before next 2..4 weeks.
I'll announce in it .patches and here
wish me luck :)

and - this (not mesh as float's) is the problem - an it easy to explain.
heightfield scaled by <20,5,20> with 4096^2 bitmap has triangles as small 
as 20/4096 - with get close to shadow tollerance, especialy in this parts 
of map that has to low gradient, as on this images :
