Ok, your attached files produces bad rendering for me as well using<br>
VisIt 3.1.0. <br>
<br>
Looking at the file (it is an ASCII file format) and comparing it<br>
to surface01_000000.vtk from the Zenodo dataset, the file is clearly<br>
different and has some very strange sections with 0.0 values in it.<br>
<br>

The ET gallery example parfile on linked on:<br>
<br>
<a href="https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/einsteinexamples/raw/master/par/GW150914/GW150914.rpar" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://bitbucket.org/einsteintoolkit/einsteinexamples/raw/master/par/GW150914/GW150914.rpar</a><br>
<br>
does not have vtk output enabled in QuasilocalMeasures.<br>
<br>
Are you running the parfile from the Zenodo repo or a modified version<br>
from the gallery website? Would you mind attaching your parfile, please<br>
as well as the out and err output from Cactus?<br>
<br>
Something strange seems to be going on in your vtk output I would say,<br>
though I have no idea what might be happening.<br>
<br>
Having said that, I ran the gallery example parfile using the Turing<br>
(ET_2020_05, mostly b/c I had a copy already compiled) after setting:<br>
<br>
QuasiLocalMeasures::output_vtk_every = 1<br>
<br>
and its t=0 output for surface01_000000.vtk looks just like your bad<br>
one.<br>
<br>
Running diff on the parameter files (from the galley page and Zenodo)<br>
the only differences I see are that WaveExtractCPM (not in the Einstein<br>
Toolkit) is disabled in the gallery version and that ADMConstraints has<br>
been replaced by ML_ADMConstraints.<br>
<br>
You may want to try if correct output is restored after running:<br>
<br>
cd repos/einsteinanalysis<br>
git revert 56a98ded<br>
<br>
and recompiling.<br>
<br>
This reverts a commit "QuasiLocalModes: Simplify VTK output routine to<br>
speed up build times" which has a suggestive commit message.<br>
<br>
I would suggest creating a bug report ticket.<br>
<br>
Yours,<br>
Roland<br>
