External Email - Use Caution        

Dear FreeSurfer experts,

I am trying to do vertex-wise comparisons for thickness, surface area and volume between three groups with glmfit.
Currently I am using the dev version (-------- freesurfer-darwin-OSX-ElCapitan-dev-20180627-4a8f901 --------) on Mac since I ran into problems with mri_surfcluster when using permutation for multiple comparison correction. That seems to work fine with the dev version.

When running Monte Carlo simulation with glmfit-sim I ran into the following error message:
ERROR: cannot find /Applications/freesurfer/average/mult-comp-cor/fsaverage/lh/cortex/fwhm34/abs/th33/mc-z.csd

When I checked, the folder fm34 did not exist. But now I am wondering why FreeSurfer is trying to use FWHM34 from the beginning as I used FWHM15 for smoothing in the preprocession step. I see in the glmfit.log "ResidualFWHM 33.582634" - did I have to specify the smoothing kernel anywhere else ecxept from the preprocessing step?

Please find attached the log files for preprocessing, glmfit and glmfit-sim.
Thank you so much for any help!

Best
Lea
