Hi all, This morning I stacked together some WIP data collected so far just to see how it's looking. No processing other than: - 45x300sec stacked with darks only (no flats, dark flats) Stacking with WBPP and in DSS produces the same result - Dynamic crop to remove stacking artifacts - Stretched using an unlinked STF stretch - Stars removed using StarXterminator Has anyone seen this before, any ideas what could be causing this pattern? I also tried gradient removal techniques before removing stars but that still resulted in this pattern. Thanks Danny |

Apologies, perhaps I was a bit premature posting here but I think I've solved it. It was caused by StarXterminator, ticking the 'large overlap' box before running star removal fixed the issue. Happy to delete this post or leave it here in case anyone else has the same problem down the line? |

My understanding is that StarXterminator breaks your image down into separate tiles and analyses/extracts stars based on this. So if there was an error in this process (like ticking the overlapping box) then that would explain why you saw a checkerboard pattern on your image. |

Large Overlap option can help but doesn't necessarily complete eliminate the grid. Not sure what has changed. I never used to get this. |

Thanks for this post, Danny. I'm getting this as well, but even with out ticking 'Large Overlap' I'm still getting the pattern. Can't see it at all before StarX. Anyone have any another suggestions? |
