New release 3.04

A new MAUD version (3.04) is available in the releases section.

There are some new options to rotate pole figures in texture plot window.

In the download below, the versions containing in the name "..._x64..." are for Intel/amd cpus, while "..._aarch64..." are for arm type of cpus (Mx processors for Apple Macs).

New release 3.03

A new MAUD version (3.03) is available in the releases section.

Fixed some problems with the menu mnemonics, they all use the first letter of the menu item name now. Some keyboard shortcuts may have changed, check them out. Fixed a problem with the lumacam->gda export.

New release 3.02

A new MAUD version (3.02) is available in the releases section.
Few small enhancements: the Hippo wizard now removes always the unused banks from the instrument calibration models. An options to remove them from old analyses has been added to the edit menu for the selected objects (datasets). The 2theta and eta steps for caking tiff images into patterns using the Inclined Image Angular calibration has been added to the model instead of using the Maud Preferences setting.

In the download below, the versions containing in the name "..._x64..." are for Intel/amd cpus, while "..._aarch64..." are for arm type of cpus (Mx processors for Apple Macs).

New version 3.01

A new MAUD version (3.01) is available in the releases section.
It is just a bug fixing release. The bug corrected is only for the EWIMV texture model. If you are not using this model you can skip this release.

New version 3.0

A new MAUD version (3.0) is available in the releases section.
The "Hippo scattering" release.
You have to check the glorious Hippo scattering.
This version is quite a big step from previous. It should be in general better and more robust.
But a word of cation is necessary because with all the changes, especially in the core, it may be advisable to keep a copy of your previous Maud version, just in case.
This version include the first DiffaX model (for dhcp structures) but a more general will follow.
The DiffaX computation in Maud includes crystallite sizes, microstrains and texture. No strains. For texture only models not using a texture extraction engine can be used for refining texture. For the other only texture computation from a fixed ODF.
It is also the first version including the angle-energy maps computation, even if is better to wait for a full debug of them before using. The computation has been extensively changed to include texture and stresses and still it is not everything complete.
Some more additional notes can be found in the help->readme of Maud.

Please notice that the downloading directory structures have been changed in the gdrive.
More Maud releases has been added for the arm type of CPUs for both Linux and Windows.
The java jdk included has been updated to the Java 25 (LTS). If you notice something not working properly, please report the problem with the OS you are using and Maud version.
Older versions of the Maud program can be downloaded from Github.

New version 2.99997

A new MAUD version (2.99997) is available in the releases section.
The "End of life" release.
This will be the last version 2.x release before version 3.0 that will follow shortly.
So it is advice to keep this version for old analyses as version 3 is not guaranteed to work with everything from past versions and you can expect some new bugs or models not working initially.
This is mainly a bugs correction release. The standard function texture model has been changed a bit.
Now it is using HWHM for fiber and spherical components. A bug concerning the normalisation not always applied has been fixed. ODF output from standard function has been fixed also.
Kearns factors are calculated with the sharpness index computation in texture. Output to the console.
Fixed the refinement when using some weights modifiers that were not properly applied.
Fixed the batch launch computation and added some methods to generate AI training patterns.

New version 2.99993

A new MAUD version (2.99993) is available in the releases section.
Added export in the separated plot window (and the phase editing tools menu) to export data for pdfget3(x,n) PDF plotting or post processing.
Reworked the dynamical correction/extinction models in Maud to have them as a plugin like the rest. So the electron diffraction dynamical 2 beams approximation is now a plugin (extinction models are selected in the phase editing window under advanced models). Added the Sabine extinction models for Neutrons/X-rays. This is the same model used in GSAS (see Sabine, Von Dreele et Jorgensen. Acta Cryst. 1988, A44, 374-379).
Version 2.99992 was never released as it was developed for EPSC4 integration + some bugs corrections. Is basically working but it needs more coding and will be fully functional in the next release hopefully.
See the video link (YouTube MaudProgram channel) for a video about the last features.

New version 2.99991

A new MAUD version (2.99991) is available in the releases section.
The sample displacement x is working now to correct an error in transmission for inclined flat images calibration.
Added the preference "sumSpectra.meanIntensity", when true and summing spectra it saves the mean intensity, otherwise the pure sum.
In imageJ there is a new plugin to sum images by rules or all.
Texture now works for different wavelengths and different sample parts.
Corrected a bug causing a problem for calibration of transmission/reflectio images with omega 0 and chi 90.

New version 2.9999

A new MAUD version (2.9999) is available in the releases section.

The instrument INES is now supported for the Hippo wizard. Use Mantid to export a GSAS instrument file (.prm) and the data in GSAS format (multiple banks and patterns supported). In the Hippo wizard load the instrument parameter file and then the GSAS datafiles. In the next panel select the banks you want to use and the range in d if you want to use only a restricted one. You can change it later also. Corrected a problem loading some CIF with C1/C-1 space groups.

New version 2.9998

A new MAUD version (2.9998) is available in the releases section.
Fixed a bug introduced in version 2.9997 affecting CIF importing of structures.
If the CIF structure file contains atom sites with no specification of the atom element type it enter an infinite loop and the atom type remain unspecified.
So, an analysis file with such unspecified type, create again the loop on loading. The phase should be removed and the CIF reloaded with the new version.
