[yt-users] yt and PLUTO

[Andrew Myers]

Hi Marc,

I'm not surprised that yt doesn't work quite out-of-the box with Pluto
data, but the Chombo HDF5 frontend definitely works, and could probably be
made to handle Pluto data with minimal hassle. Probably you just need to do
things like specifying the field names, where to find stuff like 'gamma',
etc. If you want help with that, I'd be happy to point you to the right
places in the code. It would also help if you could provide the traceback
for the error you are seeing when you try to load the dataset.

Best,
Andrew
