May 27 2026 APP 2.0.0-beta45 has been released !
Fully Multi-Threaded LNC, many improvements for the registration engine, platform upgrade, and further tuning of internal memory consumption and memory release back to OS.
Apr 14 2026: Google Pay, Apple Pay & WeChat Pay added as payment options
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 can run a set of data all the way through integration and even use tools and modify the results. If I then go back to the 0)RAW/FITS tab to extract Ha from a dual band data set (I had processed the data first time in RGB) I get the following:
Encountered error in module:
ImageNormalizer
Error message:
java.lang.NullPointerException: Cannot load from object array because "this.a" is null
Cause:
Cannot load from object array because "this.a" is null
r.a(Unknown Source)
r.doInBackground(Unknown Source)
java.desktop/javax.swing.SwingWorker$1.call(Unknown Source)
java.base/java.util.concurrent.FutureTask.run(Unknown Source)
Strangely it complains about an error in ImageNormalizer but it had already started the first few steps of 6) INTEGRATE
I cannot be sure that this is the only case. It happened before and I started from scratch re-starting APP. Any thoughts?Â
Interesting, would you mind to upload a portion of your dataset that shows this problem? I'll test it myself then as well, might be a bug:
@vincent-mod Thank you. I have been trying to make a small subset of data and reproduce the error myself to be sure you don't waste your time but I just wasted mine. I'll try again after tonight's session and see if I can get a small set that breaks consistently. I found another java error today but need to make sure it wasn't my fault. I'll get you something soon. Thanks for the help
I processed new images today, from last night. I did the full stack of RGB, went back and extracted Ha, OIII and Mono from the same set. All good. Then I tried to combine RGB in the tools using the files I had created above (the Ha, OIII and mono) and got the same java error. I have tried to replicate it with a small set but I cannot break it repeatedly. I have plenty more to process and when I find a set that I can repeat I'll let you have a look.
Thanks for the effort Robert, in the end we can always have a look at the dataset to try and trigger it ourselves as well, if you would have one that does it at least once in a while that would be nice. 🙂
