TMS Integration with GeoServer

[fcdalgic]

Hello,
I am newbie to osgEarth and GeoServer and trying to integrate GeoServer's TMS service with osgEarth's latest version. I have already successfully managed to integrate with WMS service to retrieve raster data. However, when I modified the example readymap.earth file to set TMSElevationLayer's URL with "http://localhost:8080/geoserver/RsMap/gwc/service/tms/1.0.0/RsMap%3ARsTiles@global-geodetic@png", it gives me some errors:

Resources

1. The content of the earth file:

<map name="ReadyMap.org">

 
	 <TMSElevation name="ReadyMap 90m Elevation">
		 <url>http://localhost:8080/geoserver/RsMap/gwc/service/tms/1.0.0/RsMap%3ARsTiles@global-geodetic@png</url>
		 <vdatum>egm96</vdatum>
	 </TMSElevation>

    <xi:include href="viewpoints.xml"/>
</map>

2. On the HTTP Debug console is attached. console_output.txt
3. The actual response from TMS is attached. TMSResponse.xml.txt

Questions:

1. Why TMSElevation tries to retrieve data from "http://localhost:8080/geoserver/RsMap/gwc/service/tms/1.0.0/0/0/0.png" instead of "http://localhost:8080/geoserver/RsMap/gwc/service/tms/1.0.0/RsMap%3ARsTiles@global-geodetic@png/0/0/0.png"?
2. How to integrate with GeoServer's TMS service?
3. Is TIF the only supported format for TMSElevationLayer?
4. If I needed manipulate the service parser, which class or method should I manipulate to cope it?

Thanks in advance,
