<p>Hi,</p>
<p>we tracked the error down to the use of Freesurfer 7 instead of Freesurfer 6.<br>
<br>
mri2mesh uses mris_convert from freesurfer to convert the the freesurfer surfaces to .stl-files. Up to version 6, mris_convert wrote ascii .stl-files; since freesurfer 7, it writes only binary .stl-files. Because meshfix can only read ascii stl-files, it crashes.<br>
<br>
So, for now, the work around is to use Freesurfer 6.0.1...</p>
<p>Hope this helps.</p>
<p>Best regards,<br>
<br>
Axel<br>
