Dear Dr. Hashemifar,

My answer might be slightly too late, but might be of some help to you. You
can take a look at our papers J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 27 (2015) 206003
(7pp) and Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials 563 (2022) 169885.
This can be done.

Our implementation is to change  the lapw2 codes so that the weightfile
read into the code is  replaced by your desired weight file. There are
three places that Wien code reads in the same weight files. I did not
change the latest codes.  When you try to fill some conduction bands and
remove some electrons from valence bands, give some broadening because the
self-consistent iteration at the next step may have a strong charge
fluctuation, which affects convergence. We tested both statically and
dynamically with a laser pulse, and found Wien2k is very stable. If
necessary, reducing the mixing in case.inm file. Sometimes, we also reduce
the convergence criterion, which must be checked carefully.

Best wishes,

Guoping
