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.
I was merging a 6 panel mosaic and APP was about to write the file and I received an error ... see screenshot. Note that I received the error for both Ha and OIII mosaics but the color mosaic worked fine. Well... had to perform remove light pollution to even out the background.

Update: APP produced the file !! So the program broke down when it was loading the file post stack that would have allowed me to run Tools on it

Hi Tim @tstevens83,
Thank you very much for reporting this. I have made a note of this error on my issue list.
Can you in any way reproduce this error? Did it only happen once, or multiple times?
I think your 2nd post indicates, that you were able to load the produced mosaic, so the result was fine? Or not?
