I would also suggest trying some projections instead of slices as well.  Both of those fields are created using the CIC_deposit interpolation method with just the star particles.  I could see a field like that being problematic when doing slices.

Try using the field StarMassMsun instead of star_density and see what it yields.  I've had better luck with that field.

Hi,

Slices of the star_density field are only showing a tiny patch of the area in the corner, rather than the whole region. My script looks like:

pc = PlotCollection(pf, center=[17.,11.5, 16])
p = pc.add_slice("star_density", 2)
pc.set_width(10, 'kpc')
p.modify["grids"]()

Density comes out fine and the grids are drawn in but then only a few of them get stars.
