Sebastiano,

I just looked at the feff8 source code, which is written in Fortran
and so uses static memory allocation.  Out of the box, the maximum
number of atoms in the pathfinder is 1000.  The pathfinder limit sets
the limit of the number of atoms that you consider for an exafs
simulation.  This value is set in the file src/HEADERS/dim.h as the
'natx' parameter.

Have you tried setting 'natx' to 1200, recompiling feff8, and trying
again?
