Hi Alex, The legacy flag needs to be used with old data (pre version 3) in order to "update" it to version three compatible data. You want to specifically keep pre version 3 data separate from version 3 data, as folding patterns and atlases are intrinsically different.

Can I use it on subjects procssed with older versions of Freesurfer to reconstruct surfaces that will be consistent with those generated with older versions (i.e., I can collapse data from the two versions), or is the legacy flag intended to allow new versions of recon-all to be used on old data, effectively 'updating' the surfaces (meaning they should not be analyzed together with data generated using older versions).
