Mar 28 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta40 will be released in 7 days.
It did take a long time to have the work finished on this and it will have a major performance boost of 30-50% over 2.0.0-beta39 from calibration to integration. We extensively optimized many critical parts of APP. All has been tested to guarantee correct optimizations. Drizzle and image resampling is much faster for instance, those modules have been completely rewritten. Much less memory usage. LNC 2.0 will be released which works much better and faster than LNC in it's current state. And more, all will be added to the release notes in the coming weeks...
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.
Happy New Year to you all,
I've just uploaded to Version 2.0.0 Beta 9x86_64 for my iMac running Ventura with 32gb of Ram and a 2tb Hard Drive. Â I've uploaded from Ver 6 as I was getting some banding on a Mosaic and first off thought that I would try a newer version. I can't seem to upload the very latest Beta but this is the next in line.
I've loaded the program ok, but I get a warning to say thayt I have 0gb Hard Drive space, even though I actually have over 661gb of HDD Space.
Will this message affect anything ?
Many thanks,
Graham
Hi Graham @grahamdevenishgmail-com,
Wish you also the very best for 2024 !
THe reported hard disk size is for the partition on which your working directory resides. Maybe if you update the working directory, all will be as expected?

I am experiencing a very frustrating issue. My MacBook Pro thinks I am using approx. 300gb of data in the Applications, when in fact it is only around 30-40gb. I have attached the following snippets.
I have found your previous solution in a previous form where you create a temporary big file on the desktop via the terminal and then delete it via the terminal. This did not work after a reboot, i tried it three time and no luck.
Please advise of a solution as I have wasted all weekend trying to stack my latest project which is 43GB in size. I have plenty or actual room on my Mac to handle this.

I am ruining beta version 38 on my M1 MAckbook Pro
My working files are located in a folder called APP on my desktop.
@Mabula. I have solved my issue of APP crashing over the weekend, and after that, my MacBook Pro M1 was incorrectly displaying my storage as 300GB in the Applications, but I actually had 40GB of Applications. I had to backup my MacBook Pro to Time Machine, then do a fresh install of the latest operating system and then restore my Mac from TimeMachine, all because of a bug in the Beta 38 version. Not an ideal solution. I hope they fix the bug in the next version. I want to add that I have 200GB of space left on my Mac hard drive, yet your software thinks I don't have enough space, and when it crashes, it corrupts my computer.
