Update on the 2.0.0 release & the full manual
We are getting close to the 2.0.0 stable release and the full manual. The manual will soon become available on the website and also in PDF format. Both versions will be identical and once released, will start to follow the APP release cycle and thus will stay up-to-date to the latest APP version.
Once 2.0.0 is released, the price for APP will increase. Owner's license holders will not need to pay an upgrade fee to use 2.0.0, neither do Renter's license holders.
I think I haven't been showing the mosaic I was working on in the last three years. Hardware and software were brought to some limits, but at the end APP managed it to stitch togeather these 190 image stacks with more than 600 hours worth of exposure time.
Imaged with Samyang 135mm/f2 and IDAS NBZ UHS dual-narrowband filter and ASI183MC-Pro.
Thanks to Mabula for support and quick processing some bugs.
The whole mosaic (unprocessed)
Here is a downscaled crop for a quick view:
And this is the weight map for all panels so far:
I do not know if I will continue further, currently preferences shifted but maybe in the future this mosaic will grow, we will see.

I have to say this work is very ambitious and results are great, you must have lots of patience to do this
Thank you, over time it becomes an addiction.
@walsc, great work and very well documented with details and nicely processed, CSÂ
