Hey guys! So i’ve been trying to use HocusFocus in NINA to fix some tilt. It starts to do an autofocus session and it works fine but when its finished it gives me a message that says it has made an exception and then crashes. Also when i try to load a saved autofocus log it tells me that a folder named attemptXX must be selected but i cannot find such folder on my computer. I located the folder with the autofocus logs but they are not named like that. Any ideas what is happening here? I tried uninstalling everything and then reinstalling but it didn’t work.
HocusFocus doesn't work
did you get regular focusing to work first? have your steps and backlash compensation set up correctly?

Yes everything is setup correctly and it does autofocus perfectly. I actually found the problem. When you install Hocus focus you need to set a file location to save the logs. I didn’t do it before so it couldn’t find any logs to analyse. Now it works like a charm. Thank you.
