Ok. Can't see any options in mris_smooth info reducing the number of vertices. 
How would I do that?

      Yes, give it both --sval-xyz and --tval-xyz to indicate that the output 
is a surface. We usually use mris_smooth to smooth
      surfaces; I'm not sure whether this use of mri_surf2surf will work 
properly.

            Hi John

            Doug can say for sure, but I think you want to give it the switch 
--sval-xyz so it knows to expect a surface not a
            scalar field over the surface.

                  Thanks guys.
                   When I run mri_info on the .mgz file I was using before it 
seems crash
                  (nothing happens, and have to press ctrl+c to get the console 
back). So I
                  suppose that partially explains mri_surf2surf not working. 
Not sure what's
                  going wrong there - the command I used was
                       mris_convert 
/work/imaging5/Freesurfer/CBU070282/surf/lh.pial
                       /home/jdg45/lh.pial_converted.mgz

                  For the original question - I was using a converted .mgz file 
because when I
                  just give it the path to the 'lh.pial' file in the same 
directory it says it
                  cant determine the file type -
                       mri_surf2surf --cortex --fwhm 5.0000 --hemi lh --sval
                       /work/imaging5/Freesurfer/CBU070282/surf/lh.pial --tval
                       /home/jdg45/CBU070282_smoother_surf.mgz --s CBU070282
                  Standard output:
                  ERROR: could not determine type of
                  /work/imaging5/Freesurfer/CBU070282/surf/lh.pial
                  Standard error:

                  Is there a .xxx suffix for those files I should be using?
                  Incidentally, the reason I'm doing this is that I want to 
downsample a
                  surface file; someone suggested to me to use mri_surf2surf 
with the
                  'trgicoorder' flag. Is this a good way to downsample a 
surface?
                  Thanks,

                       surf2surf actually takes surface overlays (not surfaces

                             It seems weird that you are using .mgz files (this
                             suffix is for
                             volume files) with mri_surf2surf (whose inputs
                             should be surfaces).
                             Also, it seems that several of the options you are
                             trying I don't
                             believe exist at least according to the wiki (e.g.
                             -cortex -fwhm). Are
                             you sure you are using the right command?
