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 selected my lights, went directly to "Integrate", and tried to select the crop section. It popped up the message box "Please analyses stars of lights first", but when clicking the "ok" button, "X" button, pressing "Esc" or "Enter" or anything else simply closed the error dialog just for it to be opened again..
I could not even terminate the application since that modal dialog box kept on inhibit anything else. Had to terminate the application through the task manager.
I know this software is not open source, but if I had access to the code (could sign something maybe?) I would be able to help out when I get a chance. I am a long time programmer, very proficient in java.. Could I volunteer to help like this?Â
Probably can't help too much with the highly scientific parts, but lots of other stuff I could do.
Thanks for reporting! Could you explain a bit more detailed what you did? You loaded the lights, went to tab 6 to integrate, but when and where exactly did you go for the cropping section?

I have no idea what Mabula wants on the developing side of things, he hasn't mentioned needing extra developers yet. Thanks for the heads-up though! If he at any time mentions this I'll let you know.
