Are these the new options you are talking about? Works perfectly for me, with a short refractor, at least.

Yes, and they are not working for me on my SCT. The classic SCT donuts were throwing it way off, and even close to focus I was not picking up many stars. Reverted to an earlier build and all is now well and getting data around 0.7"/px. with guiding RMS at 0.79". SEP Multistar autoguiding is fantastic.

One of the other profiles may have worked better, but this change was unexpected and there seems to be little background reading to help figure out what to do. Before using a nightly I usually do some testing with the simulators and sometimes my actual mount along with the camera simulator. The two things you can't really test this way are autofocusing and guiding because there are so many optical and mechanical dependencies.
