I've put the files back in that location (make_average_*). Run make_average_subject with --no-aseg. But I'm not sure this is the problem. It looks like it is failing when creating the average surface (the fix above is for the volume only). But give it a try. Also, remember to send the entire log file so we can better debug it.

Hi,

I was trying to build an average subject using 250 subjects and I got the following error message:

I saw someone discussing this issue a few month ago and Doug provided new scripts of make_average_subject, make_average_volume and make_average_surface to solve this problem. However, I can't find these files using the link ftp://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/transfer/outgoing/flat/greve/

Can anyone tell me whether and how this problem has been solved? Thanks in advance!
