[Mesa-users] missing kappa files

[Aaron Dotter]

Hi Noah,



 Is it as simple as changing  "kappa_file_prefix =
> 'OP_a09_nans_removed_by_hand' "?

Did you try this?  Try it and see what happens!


Have other people been able to get the OP_a09 opacities working? I noticed

It sounds like the documentation should be updated; thanks for pointing
that out.  The reason for the mans-removed-by-hand is the OP opacity tables
used to, and maybe still do includes NaNs in places, usually near the edges
of the table.  Someone (Bill?) went to the trouble of removing them and
wanted us to know of their effort.
