The --cache is completely independent of --qcache (it was an unfortunate name for me to give it). The --cache means that the simulations have already been run. Think about a statistics text book that has a table of t-values, DOF, and corresponding p-values. I created a similar table that we d

Hi Rebecca, this is intentional. The whole brain is divided up into left cortical hemi, right hemi, and subcortical structures. the MNI305 is only supposed to handle the subcortical structures. If you want a brain volume with cortical and subcortical, you can use vlrmerge to merge the volume,
