Hi Surfers, I have faced an issue with preproc-sess and I appreciate your help. I have a single slice EPI scan (number of TRs > 500; TR=0.2). When I tried to do preproc-sess, mc-afni2 is called and it crashed. When I checked the log, I noticed this:
3dvolreg.afni -verbose -dfile 005/fmcpr.mcdat -1Dmatrix_save 005/fmcpr.mat -base 005/tmp.mc-afni2.4869/tempvol.nii.gz -prefix 005/tmp.mc-afni2.4869/outvol.nii.gz 005/tmp.mc-afni2.4869/invol.nii.gz ++ 3dvolreg: AFNI version=AFNI_2011_12_21_1014 (Aug 29 2012) [64-bit] ++ Authored by: RW Cox *+ WARNING: If you are performing spatial transformations on an oblique dset, such as 005/tmp.mc-afni2.4869/tempvol.nii.gz, or viewing/combining it with volumes of differing obliquity, you should consider running: 3dWarp -deoblique on this and other oblique datasets in the same session.

Any suggestions?
Please note that, this data is properly registered (manually and based on an auxiliary volume) and there is no problem there.
