Hello.

Glad to see that you have solved your problem. It is true that you need 
the Vislt software for reading Tecplot files, but this software is 
included in the last Paraview release 3.98.1. I am using the last 
binaries found on the Paraview download pages, and I can read Tecplot 
binary or ASCII files without adding software.

On older Paraview releases, the Vislt software was delivered as a plugin 
that was not activated by default. In that case, you had to go through 
the menu "Tools->Manage plugins", then select the "Vislt" plugin, click 
the "Load selected" button, close Paraview, and finally reopen Paraview 
to get the plugin activated. So, check your Paraview version, and you 
may want to update it for the last 3.98.1 release.

But take care: there are two Tecplot readers. If you open a (.tp) ASCII 
Tecplot file, you will have the choice between "Tecplot Files" or 
"Tecplot Files (Vislt)". I don't know exactly what are the differences, 
but if a reader fails, try the other.

But the Tecplot readers are not perfect, and that may explain your ERROR 
message. Sometimes, with Tecplot ASCII files, I have to remove from the 
header some options that the readers do not recognize. Try to have the 
simplest headers without "exotic" options when using ASCII files, and 
the readers will be OK.

If you have again problems with (.plt) files, feel free to provide a 
(short) sample file.

Richard
