Hello,

I am trying to run FAST through IDL and I get the error:

These are the external files I was told to get:

ised_del.lr, ised_del.hr, ised_exp.hr, ised_tru.hr

But I am not sure where to get ised_del.pr.

Thank you.

Hi Kincaidr, I'm encountering the same issue as you, did you end up finding where to download this file ?

[Kincaidr]

Hi @guigui-99. I encountered alot of problems using the IDL version. It would save you alot of trouble if you just used the python version (fastpp), its much simpler to install and run. I encountered no problems. Its also states that its 4x faster than this IDL version. Give it a try here: https://github.com/cschreib/fastpp

[guigui-99]

Thank you for the fast reply, indeed I'm using fastpp already but as far as I understand it uses the same libraries as fast and it doesn't come with the ised_del.pr one so I was still trying to find it to use different SFH models in fastpp

[Kincaidr]

yes you are right. They use the same libraries. Its been a while since I installed, At which step of the installation are you getting this error?
