Thank you Russ! BXT is a truly revolutionary deconvolution tool. Thanks for making it even better.

Thank you Sascha,
I did some reprocessing yesterday and bought BXT just yesterday. I used it with default settings on material i shot some time ago with a telescope i sold already. It was the Vixen ED80sf with a TS Flattener.
I was so enthusiastic, that I did a comparison between this (still Version1 of BXT) and the "natural" Version and published it on my little blog (not updated yet):
https://astrocamp.eu/en/blurxterminator-2/
Now I read this! I did an Update in PixInsight and added my comparison. Wow! Thanks Russ! 
This is only the upper left corner from the ed80sf, integrated, dc, dbe, spcc and then:
left: NXT; middle: BXT, NXT; right: BXT2, NXT.

As soon as I learned about it I reran an already stretched completed image through bxt2 like we aren't supposed to, but it still came out way im
proved, with all the misalignment coma gone! . Maybe I don't have to align optics anymore 😏

I'm impressed by it. Could never get the 6th star by the brightest trapezium star to resolve fully until now.

PI crashed trying to update BX this morning. I guess I didn't notice build 1593 released last week. So if you have not updated PI, you may not be able to update BX.

Have an "old" build of PI, updated BXT without problems.

Getting the following error:
Error: ERROR: MLLoad() could not load tensorflow graph. Error 3: Converting GraphDef to Graph has failed. The binary trying to import the GraphDef was built when GraphDef version was 440. The GraphDef was produced by a binary built when GraphDef version was 1645. The difference between these versions is larger than TensorFlow's forward compatibility guarantee. The following error might be due to the binary trying to import the GraphDef being too old: NodeDef mentions attr 'explicit_paddings' not in Op output:T; attr=T:type,default=DT_FLOAT,allowed=[DT_HALF, DT_BFLOAT16, DT_FLOAT, DT_DOUBLE, DT_INT32, DT_INT64, DT_UINT8, DT_INT16, DT_INT8, DT_UINT16, DT_QINT8]; attr=ksize:list(int),min=4; attr=strides:list(int),min=4; attr=padding:string,allowed=["SAME", "VALID"]; attr=data_format:string,default="NHWC",allowed=["NHWC", "NCHW", "NCHW_VECT_C"]>; NodeDef: {{node BXT/max_pooling2d_14/MaxPool}}. (Check whether your GraphDef-interpreting binary is up to date with your GraphDef-generating binary.).
Anyone had this and knows of a solution?

Works well with astigmatic lines but not with high order coma nor with signficant tilt (but better than what it used to do).

Version 2 is incredible! As someone who images extensively with very fast lenses, stars across the frame are nearly indomitable even after extensive adjustment of backfocus. The previous version of BXT could not correct them. Now, the stars look so good I could probably just rely on BXT entirely.
Here are a few tests on an image I took with my f/1.4 lens over the summer. I paid almost no attention to spacing, and indeed I don't even think I was perfectly focused.

Previous version of BXT:
