Results were well worth it. BEFORE the point model I would get oblong stars if I went over 60-90 second exposures. Last night I did 1000 second exposure and had round stars. It blew me away.
That's excellent! I'm glad you got everything working! :-)
Best regards,

MAYBE that was the fix. I had great results last night. The pop up error never appeared. And one of the solutions I tried was to update ASTAP. I was using the latest but I went back and noticed there is a dev release that is newer and I had installed that.
I made other changes to settings. I went full frame, and bin2 and I sed a APPM setting from default to 0. Something or everything made it work... but could be it was using the dev release of ASTAP that fixed it.
