[FLASH-USERS] Issue with Sesame Copper EOS

Dear Flash users,

I have had issues with simulations trying to use SESAME EOS tables with 
FLASH 4.8. Whenever I try to run simulations with my Copper EOS, I get 
the following error message:

  [eos_tabBrowseSesameTables] SESAME file found: matr_03334_copper.ses
  [eos_tabBrowseSesameTables] SESAME file found: matr_03334_copper.ses
  in eos_inittabulated, tableName = matr_03334_copper.ses
  in eos_inittabulated, groupName = -none-
  Material 3334 is compatible with FLASH
At line 230 of file eos_tabReadSesameTables.F90 (unit = 7, file = 
'matr_03334_copper.ses')
Fortran runtime error: Bad value during floating point read

I have tried several thing to fix the issue:

  * Changing from E22.15 format to E15.8 in eos_tabReadSesameTables.F90
    as some sesame files are in this format
  * Generating SESAME EOS with FEOS that ended up with the same error
  * Converting both the regular SESAME table and the FEOS one with
    opacplot2 but they wouldn't convert. I also tried to write my own
    script to go from .ses to .cn4 but it never worked properly.

Does someone has met these issues and fixed it? Or have a Copper IONMIX4 
table they can share as I never had issues with IONMIX4 EOS table 
running. (I'm also interested in Tungstene (W) and Silicon (Si) tables 
as I don't have any EOS table for it and would need it.)

Thank you in advance for your answers.

Best regards
