To be launched in the next couple of weeks, it's a pretty massive update to StarTools. New modules, videos, documentation. Teasing out even more signal with signal evolution Tracking, heaps of narrowband improvements, quality-of-life enhancements.

Contact /u/verylongtimelurker if you'd like a preview of the latest Release Candidate.

  • Are you planning to release more Release Candidates than you already have, or is my current build of RC4 the final version I can expect in a few weeks?

    We're up to RC7, I will release RC8 soon...

    1.5.359 Release Candidate 5 * ST Replay integration enhancements

    1.5.360 Release Candidate 6 * Fixed bug in Entropy blue channel mode (O-III) * Added presets to Entropy * Added more helpful descriptions to channel selection control * Optimized Decon deringing * Added denoising to Entropy module if Tracking is off * Fixed issue with "holes" in over-exposing star cores when using more aggressive Denoise settings

    1.5.361 Release Candidate 7 * Small tweak to Decon deringing * No longer applying energy redistribution (Grain Dispersion) in Denoise to chroma information * Inital Grain Dispersion selection screen in Denoise now shows black&white (luminance) only * Using globally remembered noise filter settings (shared by Dark Anomaly Filter in Wipe and Contrast, Ignore Fine Detail < in AutoDev and Grain Size in Denoise)

    1.5.362 Release Candidate 8 * Small tweak to AutoDev Ignor Detail Smaller Than < behavior * Tweak to Hubble preset in Color module
