Once again I appreciate the help. I had to step away from this project for a little bit to work on other stuff but I am back.
I looked through the preferences several times but somehow missed the Program tab because it seemed unrelated. I had also been looking for the GPU prioritization over CPU, but somewhere else I read that the GPU may be slower than CPU still. I will be giving that a shot, as well as entering parameters for enfuse (when I did it in the fusion options there was no difference. I threw the outputs into Photoshop with a "difference" blending mode and everything was identical.) As far as you know, does the fusion for most detail and the stitching for panorama have to be completed in two steps? I've temporarily uploaded a selection of the source files where I saw the issue the most significantly here: https://u.pcloud.link/publink/show?code=kZCRRb5ZeOE3383m2v81I7UxerzaLy9x6ez7 I'll keep trying it myself, but if you end up trying it out with my images and have input based on that, I would be happy to see how your test goes. Thank you!
