I've made the effort to actually uninstall and delete whatever bit of hugin I could track down, including installation directories and start menu entries, on my Windows system, to try and make a fresh install with no relics from previous installations. Then I installed into a new path. Again I asked for all CPGs to be installed, and the installation dialog said it was downloading them. But the same CPG omissions I noticed earlier still apply. If the new stuff is just installed over a current installation, all the old CPGs will still be there, so the problem might not manifest. Of course it might be that the missing CPGs are actually downloaded to somewhere where I can't find them, but I couln't find them anywhere :(
I also noticed that I could not get rid od my old CPG settings, and I have no idea where they are actually stored. In the registry perhaps? I would have liked to get rid of them before doing my install-to-a- clean-state attempt. The newly installed CPGs and the CPG settings (also for the missing ones) produce problems on my system. match-n-shift won't run - now this may be because I don't have ImageMagick installed, but the version that the installer installs does not know the -m (nomagick) flag. If I replace it with m-n-s from my previous install, it runs, if I give it the right autopano to work with. And what about the -a and - b flags? What are they for? As far as autopano is concerned, there is a name conflict here with autopano by A. Jenny and autopano by S. Nowozin, which is a different thing altogether. A. Jenny's is used as standalone CPG, whereas Nowozin's is used with existing .key files (like in conjunction with generatekeys), if my understanding is correct. And the settings for autopano-sift-c include '--projection %f,%v', which does not work with the autopano-sift-c.exe I took from my previous installation [version 2.5.2] (since the installer didn't actually install it). Now that I have all the (old) CPGs together again, the new hugin runs well and only occasionally crashes (sometimes after using panomatic, but I can't figure out when and when not) - so far I haven't found anything crucially wrong with it. But I think the CPG deployment needs some finetuning ;) with regards KFJ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Hugin and other free panoramic software" group.
