Hello Experts,

I am running a paired t-test cortical thickness analysis based on the
instruction on the wiki page (
https://surfer.nmr.mgh.harvard.edu/fswiki/PairedAnalysis). However, the
monte carlo files weren't not created when i corrected for multiple
comparisons. Below are my script, fsgd files, mc-z log file, and a
screenshot of contrast folder missing mc.z maps. Please can you help me
figure out why the error is happening. Thank you.

Best,
Paul
