UPDATE FROM MABULA
I have had a very rough 2 months unfortunately health wise. I was struck 3x in a row with bacterial infections. The second infection occurred  after a routine hospital checkup and I became very sick. I had to rest and take a lot of antibiotics. Once I was recovering and restarting work 1 month ago, I again became sick. The infection was not yet gone, so even more antibiotics and rest was needed. Needless to say, it took a lot of my energy and I needed a lot of rest.
Finally, the infection is really gone and my energy is coming back step-by-step now and I have started work again. I am terribly sorry to have kept you waiting for support. I will address all outstanding questions and e-mails step-by step and will be on the forum daily from today.
APP 2.0.0-beta47 will come soon as well, a lot of work was already completed before I became very ill, so the release is also nearly ready for you. Beta47 will be much faster actually. Many workflows will be more than 2x faster, mosaics can even be 10x faster than before because registration really received a major boost... all compared to beta46. Â Before I release it, I will make sure that everything is working properly and then I will release it.
Hello,
Just loaded the new version and now getting this:

Edit by Mabula:
Apologies for this issue with mosaics in APP 1.078. I have found and fixed the bugger though 😉
I will try to release APP 1.079 with the fix a.s.a.p.

Could you specify what you're trying to do and with what settings?
It seems that error message comes when doing mosaic.
Yes, I have experienced the same error when doing a mosaic. See

Hi
I'm getting the same error message as well, have been following the mosaic tutorial video to the letter, apart from using advanced normalisation rather than regular.
Very frustrating!
For creating mosaics I switched back to 1.077, which works well. I hope that @vincent-mod and @mabula-admin soon have time to investigate this annoying bug.
Going to check it tomorrow, especially if 1.077 does work it might be a bug indeed.
Well, 1.077 doesn't produce the NPE. But it does introduce bad distortion artifacts at the seams of the mosaic if distortion correction is enabled. I'll retry in 1.077 with distortion correction disabled once more.
I was told on a Spanish WhatsApp group tonight that someone ran into the same NPE while trying to create a 2x2 mosaic with 1.078 as well and that for him these settings work:
3) Analyse stars
- 2500 stars
4) Register
- pattern: triangles
- scale start: 5
- scale end: 11
- disable dynamic distortion correction
- disable same camera and optics
- registration model: mosaic
5) Normalize
- mode: advanced
6) Integration
- everything default except MBB: 15%
I tried but still got the NPE.

Mmm, weird, I've downloaded your data and will have a try today myself. Usually having seams is a result of not having MBB on. Did you double-check that for 1.077? I will investigate.
