UPDATE FROM MABULA

I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.

 

Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.

 

APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46.  Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.

Now I connect the dots! 😉

Yes, thank you, I'm very pleased with the outcome...
And AAP makes mosaic stitching a breeze (usualy...)

I did have some trouble with star analysis on a single pane, was fixed by doing it over again.
Now, I have the same problem with another mosaic (Cygnus 6 panes) - hopefully will work it out.
(Working out 5 integrated panes, with the 6th pane individual calibrated lights).

Renewed edition of my 12 pane mosaic
Sometime ago all my Projects files were deleted (raw material was in a different drive)
I wanted to submit this image to a competition so had to remake this image.

Went for a different look this time, less cropping from original file, different process, etc.

Again, APP did a great job on the stitching.

Thank you!

Yeap, guessing I'll be doing some more remakes from time to time due to that mishap, well another lesson learnt.
