Thanks Götz for your link which does seem connected, and to answer your question, I’m using the full (CLI) version.
So it does seem that control points (at least for me) are closely linked to the outcome of alignment.
Starting with the same source image set and control points, I’ve found:
- If we have more than 100 CPs and some with high error (> 5 pixel), RC reliably crashes during alignment
- Culling just those CPs with higher error causes RC to hang, rather than crash
- Culling to < 50 CPs, RC completes alignment but fails to register the views that I added control points for in the first place.
