Sorry, that was the wrong error description (for the AFNI portion). It just says cannot open dataset test.nii
Well, if it doesn't work on FSL or AFNI, I would guess it is the conversion process from FreeSurfer. I don't think anyone on AFNI knows mri_convert or mri_sruf2surf. Honestly just trying to get support for your product for a very simple task, not sure where else I could find someone who would know how to use FS outputs.
