The second Release Candidate for version 0.0.1 of the ASCOM Alpaca Simulators projects! This supports all Alpaca device types. As an Alpha expect ugly UI, UI bugs and even functional bugs.

Changes since rc1

  1. Fixed an issue with Observing Conditions control and disabled properties
  2. Improved log file naming to remove duplicate word
  3. Improved Dome control layout

The binaries can be started directly or from the command line. Either way they will display a terminal for output / testing. These releases are simple zip / tar.xz files containing the output. For each the main binary is named ascom.alpaca.simulators.

Each OS dependent package was built as a Self Contained (does not require .Net 5.0 to be installed) and Trimmed (size reduced by removing unused platform code). Non Windows targets are Ready to Run AOT Compiled (whatever code can be fully compiled was).

This release includes Windows (x86 and amd64), Linux (amd64, armhf, and aarch64) and macOS amd64 (Intel or Rosetta 2) binaries.

The zip that ends with .Net 5.0 is a release build that is much smaller but it requires .Net 5.0 to be installed on the system. It can be unzipped and started by calling "dotnet .\ascom.alpaca.simulators.dll" or by running the exe on Windows.
