[yt-users] Gadget snapshot read Problem

Hello! I have two questions: the first is related to saving new field
specs, and the second is related to reading in the file itself.

I was following along with the documentation that describes saving new
field specs, and I defined a new field spec as (it should be noted that my
extra columns are for both gas and star particles, and I was unsure as to
how to tell yt that it applied for both types, so I made a best guess):

my_field_def = ("Coordinates",
                  "Velocities",
                  "ParticleIDs",
                  "Mass",
                  ("InternalEnergy", "Gas"),
                  ("Density", "Gas"),
                  ("SmoothingLength", "Gas"),
                  ("RII", "Stars"),
                  ("RIa", "Stars"),
                  ("StellarAge", "Stars"),
                  ("C", "Gas", "Stars"),
                  ("O", "Gas", "Stars"),
                  ("Ca", "Gas", "Stars"),
                  ("Cr", "Gas", "Stars"),
                  ("Mn", "Gas", "Stars"),
                  ("Fe", "Gas", "Stars"),
               )
And a unit base:

unit_base = {'UnitLength_in_cm' : 3.085678e+21,
               'UnitMass_in_g' : 1.989e+43,
               'UnitVelocity_in_cm_per_s' : 1.0e+5}

Firstly, when I tried to add my custom field definition to the
gadget_field_specs by doing:

from yt.frontends.sph.definitions import gadget_field_specs

I get the error:
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named definitions

Just wondering what I was doing wrong?  Also, when I try to load in the
snapshot, I am doing:

fname = 'snapshot_000.0'
ds = yt.GadgetDataset(fname, unit_base=unit_base, field_spec=my_field_def)

ds.index

ad = ds.all_data()

pz = yt.ProjectionPlot(ds, 'z', ('gas', 'density'))
pz.show()

The output is:

The snapshot I'm trying to load is a 128^3 50Mpc snapshot distributed onto
4 files and the error occurs on a call to ds.index, if that helps.  Thank
you!
