On Windows 7 or 10:

First download VisIT from LLNL site and install. Use default dir (and record it), e.g. C:\Users\yjzhang\AppData\Local\Programs\LLNL\VisIt*
Download pre-built plug-in, developed at California Dept of Water Resource here and put the files in: C:\Users\yjzhang\AppData\Roaming\LLNL\VisIt\databases (create new dirs if necessary)
If you use SCHISM v5.6.1 (netcdf I/O), note that VisIT has issues with stack overflow with nc4, so you need to do the following work-around until LLNL fixes the issue:
- Go to NCAR and get their installer for the latest C library, e.g. 4.5.0;
- Complete the installation and record the install dir. Then copy all files in bin/ of the install dir to the VisIT dir in (1) to overwrite.
