[CIG-SEISMO] Is there a need for running generate_databases.f90 after using meshfem3D?

[Pieyre Le Loher]

Hello,

Yes, after running meshfem3D, you need to move the the proc****_Database
in SPECFEM3D/DATABASES_MPI and then run xgenerate_databases in order to
create the proc****bin files. Then you can run xspecfem3D.

Best regards.
