Hi Bruce,
Yes, mri_info works on all these files, and it states that it's an mgh file and the dimensions look allright and it says: type FLOAT (3).
Here's the output for the left hemisphere (with command line)

Hi Lars,
can you send us the whole command line and output? I think type 3 is an MGH/MGZ file. Does mri_info work on it properly?

Hi,
What does it mean when mris_surf2surf produces the error message that the input file cannot be read "as type 3" ?
The file is an .mgh which I converted from an .mgz using mri_convert (mri_convert oldfile.mgz newfile.mgh). I get the same error when I use the .mgz file.
Thank you!
yours, LMR
