Once you're in that directory, you should be able to load the file into yt by simply typing:</div><div><br></div><div>yt load cloud_hdf5_plt_cnt_0221</div><div><br></div><div>In the command line. This will start an ipython session with your dataset loaded as 'pf'.</div><div><br></div><div>If that doesn't work then there is either a problem with how yt is reading your data or you are trying to read in data that yt doesn't support yet. I know John asked earlier, but it would help if you would let us know what version of FLASH produced the dataset.</div><div><br></div><div>If you want lower latency feedback, please feel free to join us on IRC: <a href="http://yt-project.org/irc.html">http://yt-project.org/irc.html</a></div><div><br></div><div>Best,</div><br><div>

Do you have the file "RD0005/RedshiftOutput0005"?
