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.
Got a crash today, first time. I started a new thread in case it was unrelated to the other similar thread. I also go error messages but not much, posted what I have here.
I loaded in some master - First my MDF, then my master flats, Then my master darks. I loaded flats/ MDF for all filters even though I am only processing LUM, in case that matter. I loaded the flats and MDF's using the filter tag to apply to the correct filter.
I loaded all the files and just went to integrate and hit go, b/c I am working and wanted to see what i had to work with from last nights imaging.
To add more detail...
I unselected all of my calibration files and then added them back in one by one. Bad pixel maps and flats / DF worked. However, as soon as I checked my master dark I got the null error again.
I just used all of these calibration files yesterday - with no issue. Not sure what the problem is.

Thanks for testing that, so that means the masterdark has some issue. Could you see if reprocessing the darks works? If not we'll take a look at the darks here if you want to upload some.
I can upload a the dark . I was able to open the dark in APP and it looked ok. I will give it another go later. i'm thinking it might have something do do with the fact I had several sessions, but not sure.
Where can I upload the dark to where you can see it?
Mike
Thanks. Here you go;
Go to https://upload.astropixelprocessor.com and use upload1 (or upload2 till 5) as username and password will then be the same as the username.
Create a directory named “mikecmp-darkissue” and upload in there. Thank you!
